" Big businesses helped kill the Texas bathroom bill two years ago, targeting it as discriminatory and unnecessary.

They said the legislation, which would have required Texans to use the restrooms that match their sex at birth, would have hampered efforts to woo new companies to the state and turned off convention planners and sports leagues looking at venues for events.

Now, some companies are doubling down on that commitment, citing diversity and inclusivity as factors in their decisions. Apple made this clear Thursday, when it announced a $1 billion investment in the capital city.

The bathroom bill, or something like it, may be back when state lawmakers meet in 2019. But opponents of these restroom regulations say the business community will again give them the ammunition they need to shoot down such divisive legislation.

I desire to be acknowledged as rich person.

Why doesn't that make me rich?

Not even my bank respects my identity? My creditworthiness seems to be that of a poor person, I don't identify with that at all.

Veggie or not? I’m told good suet is key but personally I’m ok without.,..

And of course the male desire of which our informant speaks includes cross dressing fetishists. There desire to be seen as a woman whilst engaging in their paraphilliac behaviour is a legal requirement? With no impact on females ever? Free for all at all times? No rules?

I think I've discovered what it is to 'feel like a woman' though... I'm currently feeling angry, frustrated and immensely fucked off. Most women - you know, us cunty ones who are adult female humans - would feel that after the reams of shit that have been spouted on here.

I think you might be on to something there. That's exactly how I used to feel when I still read the nonsense the mighty male mansplained to us.

"Why will this arrogant man not listen to me?" may indeed be the epitome of what it means to feel like a woman.

I advise not giving a shit.

It's such hogwash isn't it.

Like if I go Hey Bowl, henceforth I am you, give me your house keys.

I know I am Bowl because I feel like Bowl and when I get Bowl's keys I will live as Bowl and that will make me Bowl ad infinitum...

To which Bowl should rightfully say...

Then of course there's Stefonknee Wolscht

They're oppressing you by refusing to grant you a mortgage on that castle you always had your eye on, the bigoted gits.

Liberal ain't no universal standard of perfect human behaviour.

It's not referred to as woolly minded liberalism for nothing.

when I'm presented with the "liberal woman, conservative man" narrative in future, I'll be sure to direct them to mumsnet

Sweetheart you are so 2018

They're oppressing you by refusing to grant you a mortgage on that castle you always had your eye on, the bigoted gits.

How did you know I have my eye on a castle? Finally someone understands me! I feel so validated!

OK, bingo bingo bingo, he said woke up one day.

Full House

There was a bingo game going on? Damn, and I just ignored his posts.

I feel disgust for my empty savings account and long for six figures.

PJ, you poor old thing.

Go to bed, do.

Transwomen will talk about the disgust they feel towards their penis, and their longing to have female genitalia. While surgery can't possibly recreate female genitalia with all its intricacies, the results are satisfactory

SanFranBear, of course he doesn't get it. He views the cock as simply something he a) pees through and b) has fun with. He has obviously no idea of the damage that cocks can do to females. The penis a vector of disease - females being more likely to get STDs from males than vice versa, or from other females. Sexually active hetero women have raised incidence of cervical cancer compared with virgins. The penis can make us pregnant, along with the dangers that can bring, be they physical up to and including death, or sociological/societal like being shunned by your community for being pregnant outside of marriage or whatever. And that can also lead to death. Plus, of course, some men just enjoy forcing their dicks into the orifices of unwilling women. I expect there's more I could think of if it weren't so late at night. The basic message is: if a woman wants to live a long, healthy life there is one organ she shouldn't allow anywhere near her.

So Mr PJ, us pesky women are not just being childish or silly when penises invade our spaces. We have very real reasons for not wanting uninvited cocks anywhere near us. And you treating us as if we're just a bunch of silly women who need to grow up makes you extremely unpopular around here.

I'm done being meek

Well said SanFranBear

He has obviously no idea of the damage that cocks can do to females.

I don't buy that. He is well aware that unwanted pregnancy is one of those thing caused by penis. I don't think it is possible for someone to speak English, have internet access, and not know this.

He really doesn't have the defense of ignorance.
