[Funny] xHamster blocks all porn in North Carolina.

Sometimes you don't have a choice about where you poop though. You are fifty miles from home and have to go now, damn it!

Strangely I am usually okay if the restroom is packed to the brim with people, like the airport, because all the sound of people coming and going sort of drowns out anything else and no one really pays attention to eachother. It's the times you are in the restroom and only one or two other people are in there, it just makes me uncomfortable. There was one time a duo of guys walked into a restroom to talk just as I sat down to go. I sat there for 15 minutes while they talked, holding it the whole time, before they finally left. Like I said, this feels worst around women, which is why I can't go at all if I know a woman is nearby or can hear me, even my wife.

You say that, but my dad has quite literally left us sitting at a restaurant to drive home to poop, saying he'll pick us up when he's done. I'm sure he's had no choice and done otherwise before, but it was probably at such a dire time that there was no time to even consider still being able to hold it.
 
That's flippant and not worth replying to, of course, but you're strongly showing evidence that you are more interested in dismissing other people's experience and choices than you are in engaging and embracing their differences.
Forgive me for not being interested in "embracing differences" when that difference is whether or not all people deserve equal rights and protections under the law. Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean it deserves to be treated like its valid.

Whatever though. I guess I'm done here. When you guys decide that equal rights matter more than imaginary boogeymen, let me know.

That's a blatant oversimplification and a false dichotomy. You're unwilling to entertain even the idea that there can be any position other than "Agree with blotsfan" and "oppression." You're not even willing to address points. You're only interested in shouting down and demonizing.

Maybe it would be best for you to be "done" with these discussions, it sounds like it might be bad for your blood pressure.
 
I prefer pooping in public toilets to pooping at home.

My reasoning is entirely selfish. We need to scrub our own toilets at home.
 
I can poop anywhere...but I hate peeing in urinals. I fully recognize that the problems stems from growing up in a little hick town where people were apt to fuck with you in the restroom in high school while you were vulnerable. And I fully recognize that those days are long past. But my dick, he don't care. heh

I keep a roll of toilet paper in my car for whoever might need it, 'cuz you really never know, but when you know, you know NOW. And there's no guarantee there's gonna be toilet paper there.

I can and have pooped anywhere. I'm like my dog. I'll even make eye contact.
I'm guessing that, like eating and so many other things, in the military you don't know when you next might be able to perform a necessary task, so you learn quickly to do it when you can, whether you feel like you need to or not.

Yup. There are two or three things you never pass up the chance to do - poop, eat, and sleep. Not necessarily in that order. Or at the same time.

I was never in the military, but all four of my parents were. I don't know if that has any bearing on my lack of bathroom shyness.
 
You don't think its a coincidence that this has become a hot-button topic pretty shortly after gay marriage was legalized?
Not at all, but not in the way you might think. This law was passed as a direct response to a law that was put in place by the Charlotte city council.
 
Makes me wonder what the outcome of female only or male only services will be, given the legal "equality" charges being dropped against those that prefer gender bathrooms, businesses, and services:

You can bet that if a cake shop started selling cakes to only women they'd get slapped with a discrimination lawsuit lickety split.

So at what point do you discern a difference between "good" discrimination and "bad" discrimination? And if we can't have gender based bathrooms, why should we ever let clubs, businesses, and other organizations have gender discrimination? Do we now force all battered women's shelters to become battered people's shelters with co-ed dormitories?

We could go that route, but then how do we address the women and men that don't feel comfortable using a male Uber late at night, for instance? Why can't the business provide a desired but discriminatory service?

We've already seen lawsuits and bad outcomes regarding the placement of transgender individuals into men's and women's prisons. I wonder if the unisex bathroom people have any arguments for unisex bathrooms that don't equally apply to prisons, or if they're hoping to combine the sexes in all aspects of society.
 

Which public restroom should he use?
This fella's crossed my radar again recently..



Breast reduction scars are a lot more obvious in this pic, but out in public, I'd never give either a second look. They look very much like the gender they've transitioned to.
 
I'm pretty sure that those two wouldn't be questioned or stopped going into the men's and women's restrooms.

I'd also expect most people who agree with the North Carolina law would also agree that people who've gone through complete gender reassignment surgery and changed their gender on federal documents should go in the bathroom they physically and legally represent.

so I don't think those individuals provide a good rebuttal to the law, particularly since they would likely not be stopped in the first place.

The objection raised by those who support North Carolina's position isn't that it would let Andreja in the women's room, it's that it would let ME in the women's room, because if I say I'm a transwoman, there is absolutely no way to verify my assertion without it being a hate crime. Looking as I am, dressing as I am, beard and all.

They can shove you to the ground and strip you naked, so they can feel safe.
