How do you feel about transgenders using the bathroom of he gender they identify as?

Personally i think a transgender woman should have the right to use the ladies room.
Although it seems to me that the wise course of action is to use the restroom for the gender you're passing as.

There are only two genders.

Biologically. But gender appears to be far more complicated than that. Native Americans already understood this hundreds of years ago

@Stargate On one hand, that's locally contextual - basically fashion. But more importantly, this debate doesn't really concern non-binary people, etc. We're only discussing two genders.

@Pikachu Gender is not even a biological concept. Sex and gender are very different things. And it's not just Native Americans who structured their societies in ways that don't quite map directly to ours - there are hundreds of different cultures like that all over the world. And variety of human lifestyles was only greater in the past, when people lived in a more insular and isolated ways.

That's why the whole separation between the concepts came about - anthropologists kept coming up on societies that didn't fit the expected mold - forcing them to separate what is universal and biological, from what is local fashion.

@QuixoticSoul non binary is a made up term to justify mental illness

@QuixoticSoul as always you twist the conversation away from reality to your limited perspective

@Stargate Complain about others' limited perspective when you can at least grasp the general framework of the conversation.
