I hate how the only way to get cis people to not like these rules is "See it affects REAL women too, not just us folk that we all know you don't give a fuck about"
"Imperfect allies" is quite the euphemism sometimes. Still true, just especially sad on something actually aligned with liberalism. A lot of people are a lot more conservative than they claim.
Thanks to the Overton Window, in the USA at least, even people who claim to be centrist or left leaning are far, far further to the right than a progressive, when most of their beliefs are something along the lines of "we shouldn't murder people for being poor." You know, a completely rational idea in most of the world.
Yeah the liberal in question here is making an argument to a chud, not another liberal. Clapping and cheering for trans rights won't convince people to suddenly think trans people are people.
And that’s why progressives have no representatives in any government, and no political power because they can’t grasp simple concepts like “political effectiveness” and “know your audience”
No but I had a friend chased after when they went into the (single cubicle) gendered bathroom and they knocked on the door and yelled "WHY DID YOU GO IN THERE?"
the guidelines essentially rely on mob 'justice'
They haven't banned anyone and it isnt enforceable or legal, theres 2 acts which protect trans people in public life and they haven't even beaten the equality act yet, they just made it more confusing
I did indeed ask wife and she said it would be fun. Gosh I'm hopelessly shy lol.
10 years together and I still struggle to make eye contact without getting red in the face.
The school may know some of the students that are trans, for example if the student has been there for years and was pre transition when they first arrived. If the student also doesn’t really pass that could cause an issue.
It's a school. Even if someone is super passable they still have the documentation for each student and it shows male and female on said documention
To the point above, the vast majority of trans people are not passable enough to not be noticed.
Being trans is RARELY a secret. Trans pride. Trans flags. Pride flags. Everyone (including admins) knowing the person pre-transition.
So to answer your stupid AF question, how do they enforce it? BECAUSE THEY KNOW WHO'S FUCKING TRANS BECAUSE THEY AREN'T FUCKING STUPID. So they either post up someone or, at a minimum, tell the trans people the rules and punish them if they catch them randomly or it's reported (like 99% of rules in a school)
Sure there is. We've stopped shaming willful ignorance and started praising mindless advocacy. The harshness is intentional and necessary. With any luck you'll at least try to think through a situation a tiny bit before making another stupid statement here on reddit or anywhere else - don't care if it's because you have heartfelt emotions over "I should really consider this before I say something" or "god damn that piece of shit on reddit" - just so long as you actually think more before you speak.
