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? |

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! |
