This exact same comment could have been written 5 or 10 years ago about all sorts of anti-gay legislation that would be openly mocked today. Forcing people to use bathrooms that do not align with their gender is offensive, inhuman, and is in no way "sensible", by any definition of that word. These types of legislation are nothing more than overt pandering to a certain type of paranoid, conservative person. It has no measurable (or even imaginary) positive material effect and meanwhile exposes people to further dehumanization, abuse, and paranoia. Much as you might not like to admit it, there's actually zero cost to you to respect other people and let them expel waste from their body in a bathroom that aligns with their gender. And save me the "comfortableness" in the bathroom argument -- any trans person I know would risk far more chance of discomfort and violence by using a bathroom that matches their gender assigned at birth. Once again, anti-trans criticism from someone who likely knows no trans people and probably has never met someone who was trans. Too bad that you have such strong, misinformed opinions about something that simply doesn't affect you. (And a huge thank you to everyone who was willing to be cited in that article or are willing to talk about this issue publicly... and inevitably deal with such fear and hate from some people)
