Christian nationalist North Carolina Republican Lt. Governor Mark Robinson, currently the leading candidate for the GOP nomination for governor, launched an attack on transgender women years after the Tar Heel State’s last GOP governor cost the state millions – and possibly billions – of dollars, and cost him his political career over the very same issue.
“We’re going to defend women in this state,” vowed Robinson, according to WUNC, at a campaign stop earlier this month. “That means if you’re a man on Friday night, and all the sudden on Saturday, you feel like a woman, and you want to go in the women’s bathroom in the mall, you will be arrested — or whatever we got to do to you.”
“In campaign speeches in recent weeks,” WUNC added, “Robinson suggested that people who previously identified as male should be ‘arrested’ if they go in a women’s bathroom. Instead, he suggests they should ‘find a corner outside somewhere’ to relieve themselves.”
In a different campaign speech Robinson said, “if you are confused, find a corner outside somewhere to go. We’re not tearing society down because of this.”
I also love that the thing that’s going to finally bring this society to a collapse is unisex bathrooms. You know, the same kind you have in your house.
The vast majority of toilets in the world are all-access. When you do see segregated restrooms, guess what you’ll find inside? Most of the Men’s toilets and all of the Women’s toilets are inside individually-enclosed rooms with lockable doors.
My philosophy on this issue is that one picture of a restroom door at some establishment that says “Whatever, just wash your hands.”

Even urinals, if not eliminated completely out of lack of need, can be blocked off from visibility and should be anyways. I don’t like urinals where other men can see my junk, and few of those remain anymore for good reason.
I’ve literally walked out of restrooms with no dividers or space between urinals. I don’t need a stranger’s piss splashing on me.
