For starters, I don't think billionaires spend much time in public restrooms, if any at all. Secondly, I'm certain she also doesn't want trans men using women's bathrooms either. She's trying to create a situation in which trans people can't use public restrooms, which means not being able to work, which means not being able to live. This is erasure, and she's willing to sacrifice the rights of cisgendered women to achieve it.
Is there any evidence of men actually pretending to be trans women so as to harass women the toilets? Or of trans woman harassing other women in the toilets? Or is this all a dream in the feverish imagination of the TERFs, who then proceed to harass trans women and cis women alike for not looking how they think a woman should look?
It's all imagined. First of all, even as a cisgender man, if I had intent to perv on women in the bathroom, the acts of invasion of privacy and assault are already illegal. If I peep into your stall, touch you, harass you (sexually or otherwise), those are already crimes. And they would be crimes if I were a cisgender woman, too, or a trans man or woman, or anything else on the rainbow. Being physically in the restroom does not inherently constitute an invasion of privacy because it is still a communal area. Nor does it inherently endanger you even if I am a man. As such, should not constitute a crime in an of itself. That is particularly true when it necessarily involves legally defining a line between gendered spaces, and that line will necessarily involve invasive investigations to even begin to figure out where on the line each person entering that space "belongs".
That rolls into my second point, the notion that you will just "know" someone's sex from seeing a fully clothed person alone is a joke. There are more than a few recent examples of cis women being accused of being trans women and there are many trans men that you would be requiring to use the women's restroom that you would be absolutely certain are cis men by sight alone. Are you going to require a bouncer check ID at the door? Check out their genitals? Do a blood test? Or are we just going to police people on vibes and just absolutely hound people that do not meet your minimum requirement of "man" or "woman" (which also means the trans people that more closely resemble their cis counterparts will pass without issue, and supposedly rape everyone).
And third, there is no evidence that trans women are a danger to cis women at all, nor that any cis men are pretending to be trans women in order to gain access to bathrooms to commit crimes because... once again... they are still crimes regardless of your perceived gender. It does not help a pervert or rapist by half-assing a disguise like a cartoon character, wearing a wig and a skirt, calling yourself a "gal", and assaulting women in the restroom. He could just as easily do that without the stupid subterfuge and it would be equally as illegal.
Trans people are people and can be abusive or assault others just like everybody else. Trans folk have to deal with more mental health issues than the average person. I’m just guessing, but it might make them more likely to be victims of violence or to abuse others.
These are just a few from the first page of DDG results.
Spiting other women's faces. Her face is protected by billions. She won't suffer from this.
Give it time. That piñata still has a lot of candy left inside. I feel like she's really close to infringing on women's rights in the name of feminism in an even bigger way.
The one thing I don't get about these Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminists is why they worry about toilets so much.
It's silly even historically.
We have had societies where all communal toilets were unisex without feminism (Greek, Roman), we've had societies with gender segregated toilets without feminism (Victorian Era), we've had societies with gender segregated toilets (today), so why are unisex toilets incompatible with feminism?
Honestly it makes no sense to me other than they're just panicking about penises.
They're not even panicking about penises. They are just looking for ways to persecute trans people out of hatred and bigotry, and they'll use whatever made-up reasoning allows them to keep doing it.
Can't you be held legally accountable for encouraging very obvious (and creepy) crime? I do hope she gets sued over that. Even if the law decided to not protect trans folk this is still definitely a crime.
I am convinced she has a closeted fetish. I mean, she thinks entirely too much about trans people and their genitals for someone who doesn't have a fetish, ya know?
Why does she even care?! I don’t even get, why we have to have gender based toilets, I mean, each toilet in the restroom has its own little private room. This is so stupid.
It's was mused that the Queen Of England thought everywhere smelled like fresh paint.
Some people just live in a completely different world. I dunno why we give them voice/power.
Seriously. I think the only reason she was able to create one of the most hated characters in all of literature is that she was autobiographying at the time.
She's literally encouraging harassing people on toilets, now? I see absolutely no possible way this could have consequences she could have foreseen. Totally not going to end badly for anyone.
Piss tier idea. If JKR is so sure about her gender ideology and the brainless solutions that harm everyone she suggests, how come she went to Jupiter to get more stupider? Shouldn't a real woman go to college to get more knowledge?
