Members of a local Judiciary Committee set aside over three hours for an anticipated debate on a controversial transgender nondiscrimination bill that, if passed, will allow transgender people to use public toilets of their choice. Opponents called it a safety issue and said the bill give "an all-access pass to sexual predators" who will take advantage of the bill to use such facilities.

We've had these types of discussions before on the POE forum, and I personally think they are getting far too carried away with the "political correctness" B.S. What say you POE members? Would you feel comfortable walking into a public toilet to find a member of the opposite sex using the facilities? How about the safety issue? Do you think it's a legitimate concern?

PC brigade gone mad Diana. If it weren't the truth it would be funny I guess, and beside's I reckon anybody with those sort of problems need flushing down the loo anyway!

How about this:  If you stand up to p**, use the men's room.  If you sit down to p**, use the ladies' room.  (I agree with you about the over the top political correctness BS - enough already).

I don't think its right, regardless which sex the person wishes to be, they are still the sex they are born!! You'll just end up with perverts dressing in skirts to get into womens toilets!! i mean they probably do already, but its allowing them to do it legally now!
