New Arizona bill is crazy!
A new bill proposed in Arizona would make it illegal for transgenders who have not completed a sexual reassignment surgery to use the bathroom of the gender they subscribe to. So a man who is in the process, has boobs, already had their gender changed legally on their license/ birth certificate would be arrested if they used the women's bathroom. Thoughts? I personally think it's crap. I've used men's bathrooms a lot if the women's had a long line and I really had to go.
I agree and disagree. I think that yes, they should be able to use whichever bathroom that goes with their gender. But at the same time, I saw a show where transgenders changed their minds about being transgender---all they had left to do is the surgery. If a transgendered person has gone through all the steps to change their gender then I feel that is when they should be able to use the bathroom of their gender.
a separate bathroom is not a good idea.
its bad enough there is a harsh group of people who hate anything they don't understand. let's not make people use "separate" things to alienate them even more.
AZ is acting like its a disease they will catch. smgdh. I wish we could beat the piss out of people like that.
Public bathrooms have private stalls so I can't understand why this would be an issue! I don't care who else is in there as long as they are in there for their own bathroom business!
I once had a lady try to stop me from taking my then 5 yo son into the ladies washroom so I guess some people are weird about these types of things!
It's crap. Everyone has the right to feel whatever gender they feel they are inside, it's not anyone else's place to say. And why do you care? They're going pee, it's not a dressing room. How would you feel if you were forced to go to a men's bathroom - not "oh the women's bathroom is taken I'll just go pee here real quick" but you're lawfully forced to go there even though it feels wrong. If you're curious there are a few great movies about being transgendered, a Belgian film called Ma Vie En Rose (My Life In Pink) is excellent.
In order for transgenders to even GET to the point of sexual reassignment surgery they are required to live life 100% as the gender to which they are transitioning for 6 months prior to surgery. At least that's how it worked in CA when my ex-SIL transitioned to a man. Using the men's bathroom was part of that "living as a man" she was considered a man by the state of CA before she ever had a penis.

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...

A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
Really?? We pay people to better the nation and come up with laws that benefit and protect us, and this is what they come up with?? I think their time could have been much better spent on other issues within the state.
