General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: So my husband and I decided on a whim to "join" a Trump sign waving party in a ruby red county. [View all]Pacifist Patriot
(25,224 posts)My husband and I both said in unison, "yes!"
Rational guy looked surprised. I said, "when I was in high school, I played sports. When we were the away team, we were given the boys locker room. There were several times a girl on my team would have benefited from hygiene products being available." He seemed to have a bit of a light bulb look on his face.
I went on. Have you ever been to a sporting event or a concert where the men's room was available while the women's room was overwhelmed? He nodded with an understanding look on his face.
I said, "look, a bathroom is a bathroom. Do you really care one way or the other what supplies are available? Does it bother you to use the same bathroom at home that your wife and daughters do?" So why should anyone care what's in a school bathroom? If you need something there, use it. If you don't, leave it alone."
He did seem embarrassed by incel guy by the time we left. I'll consider that my one win. 😊
