A Gentleman In The Ladies

[Jeanhatchet]

I asked for views of men in our bathroom. Either gender neutral or single sex. I collared women's views and experiences.

It makes grim and worrying reading indeed.

Its a really serious incident with huge implications.
I haven't seen a follow-up in the paper and did wonder if it had been covered on other loca or Scottish national news.

9/10/18 reported case in US:
'Federal Government Targets Transgender Policy After 5-Year-Old Gets Sexually Assaulted'
(extract)
A Georgia school’s transgender bathroom policy is being examined by the U.S. Department of Education as it investigates the sexual assault of a 5-year-old girl in a school bathroom.

The Alliance Defending Freedom filed a complaint about the incident on behalf of the girl’s parent, The Associated Press reported.

The conservative group alleges that last November, a “male student who identified as gender fluid” assaulted the girl at Oakhurst Elementary School in Decatur, Georgia.

Education Department spokesman Nathan Bailey confirmed the department’s Office of Civil Rights is involved.

“The investigation focuses on the school’s response to a report of sexual assault and the examination of any and all factors that may have contributed to a hostile environment,” Bailey said." (continues)

I've been blocked on twitter by lots of the Mermaid followers who are tweeting this stuff as I'm apparently insufficiently trans-positive. But it does give me pause for thought when the last crowd-funder for WPUK didn't raise anything like that amount.

It's usually a good idea to follow the money.

Re the post by Rowan: The complaint filed by the ADF noted that in July 2016, at the time the Obama administration was pushing schools to open bathrooms to transgender students, the Decatur School District adopted such a policy.

The complaint noted that the schools were warned such a policy could result in harm to students but kept the policy in place anyhow.

But. But. This would never happen!
