Republican Congresswoman bring forward Bill to ban transwomen from female facilities in Congress

How are you behaving any differently from any trans person?

You want to be in the position to tell everyone else what they are with zero push back, but refuse to acknowlege that you are not the sole arbiter of what makes a person male or female.

The science is not settled, and I personally am fine living without absolutes.

There isn't any proof that McBride intended to use the female facilities in exclusion of the other facilities.

The proof is the toilet selfies McBride has posted before.

@Snowypeaks

Ensuring women's toilets are for women only keeps out all male people, not just McBride and "ten-foot tall predatory beasts".

There are others? Who knew?

Maybe you missed the "ten-foot tall predatory beast" picture of McBride that was conjured up by Mace so effectively. That's bigotry. No, those aren't her words, but the very presence of McBride seemed so very threatening so this motion was necessary. For one person = bigotry. For pageantry and politics = bigotry.

Maybe it’s not allowed to say it whilst walking?

@zibzibara

He's posted selfies of himself invading women's toilets, which is a pretty strong indicator that he intended to exhibit the same predatory behavior in his new workplace.

It isn't proof, though, is it?

She even had a tweet with a video of herself striding down a hallway of Congress saying "the women's bathrooms are for women only" or something.

OMG!! She was WALKING in a video, shamelessly promoting the action she is taking. WOW! This is…something bad apparently?

What's wrong with saying women's bathrooms are for women?

@NotBadConsidering

Why does agreeing with Mace on single sex spaces mean someone is unable to consider whether they agree with her on other things? Why does that make anyone “partisan” or akin to having had a lobotomy?

People don’t automatically agree with Mace. They agree with her on single sex spaces. Are you unable to tell the difference?

Can you explain how you expect single sex spaces to be achieved in a “pure” way? Or what is an acceptable way for that to be achieved? And who do you think will do this and be of pure enough motives, in your eyes?

Words/phrases that were in the post you responded to: "in this case" (ie. agreeing "in this case", not all cases), "partisan" (heavily in favour of a particular cause - may find it difficult to work with other sides).

Words/phrases not in the post you responded to: "pure", "pure enough motives" - my eyes couldn't roll harder. Come on. Mace did this for herself. She even had a tweet with a video of herself striding down a hallway of Congress saying "the women's bathrooms are for women only" or something.

@Snowypeaks

What bigotry is Mace displaying by sponsoring a bill to ensure that single sex women's toilets in the Capitol are for women and girls only?

She did it for political reasons only. Spare me the "ensuring the women's toilets are for women and girls only" as if Nancy Mace was keeping out a ten-foot tall predatory beast. This was little more than a publicity stunt. There is no proof that McBride even planned to use the women's facilities. As I said earlier, McBride has attended orientation at Congress this week, so it's more than likely Mace saw an opportunity to display some Republican bigotry and make a point. (And impress Trump at the same time.)

@NotBadConsidering

How is taking the action to preserve single sex spaces in her workplace “bigoted”? How is agreeing with her on that a sign someone is acting like someone who has had a lobotomy?

Because they are so firmly set in their partisan way of thinking, they are unable to to consider any other options or ideas. In this case, automatically agreeing with NM because she is supposedly attempting to preserve single-sex spaces, without ever considering her motives. Is achieving a goal worth it no matter how you get there?
