No. We have been allowed defacto since 2013 and officially since 2016, but have been in the military the whole time.

..no? According to SPARTA over 76% of trans people in the military have been there for at least fifteen years

My understanding is that there are gender neutral bathrooms throughout the capital, on top of the private bathrooms each rep has in their offices. This is still a disgrace.

Sarah McBride is a very lukewarm centrist, she is not going to stand up for herself or anyone else unfortunately. She's a Zionist, so not exactly progressive.

I also would use the women's room in defiance of these rules. But I expect her to stick to the neutral ones and toe the line because that is who she is. It's easy to expect all trans women to be woke leftists/socialists/anarchists or even communists. But we are just a bunch of people with a medical condition in common.

Uh, no, I'm a trans woman and I would never be willing to step foot into a men's room so I'm glad that despite this bigoted move she won't either.

Yeesh, I'm a trans woman and I would never want to step foot into a men's room, which is why I remarked that despite this bullshit she won't have to step into one, so good for her. I was not endorsing this horrible bigoted move.

Fortunately for her there are gender neutral bathrooms available so she won't have to

Edit: I am a trans woman and would never be willing to step into a men's room. Leave it to Lemmy to interpret my original comment in such a backwards bad faith interpretation.

Keep in mind people tend to turn white noise up pretty loud, so the ad was probably booming

It's a meme

Not a great article. While it was mostly objective about the situation, it did not quote anyone but the developer, giving him complete control over the narrative, and links to many other articles about “rejecting wokeism”.

I know about Hexbear and wanted to mention that it was a Hexbear user but this ironically happened just a moment after I made my own Hexbear account. I know some of the users there are extreme, particularly that user, but the community overall I find worth it.

That said I have to wonder what you mean when you say to avoid getting in trouble and to stay safe. Is there a history of people being harassed or harmed by those groups?

Yep, and it wouldn't be very far back in my history if you want to see it. My last comment in that convo started with "ugh". I was talking about transgender issues with someone who was extremely argumentative and kept strawmanning my beliefs so I told them in no uncertain terms that I was done with the conversation and blocked them. Later I decided to unblock them and discovered that they had replied not only to that final comment continuing to tell me I'm a bad person for their strawman interpretation of what I said, but to another comment I made in a different thread.

So this person who is actively insulting me also has the ability to follow me around and continue insulting me, and blocking them just makes me unable to defend myself.
