I have personally been warned and told off in work for calling some of our social housing residents nutters and benefit bums, and for referring to the 'travelers' who cause so much crime around our area as pikies. I was also forced to go on a PC course, most off it I forget now but the one bit funny enough for me to remember was they taught nonsense like which toilets to direct transvestites to if they ask, we've never even had a tranny in the office but apparently you tell them where both mens & womens toilets are and leave to them to decide..... a tranny is allowed to go in the womens toilets if they want, how messed up is that ?!?!!?!
We had an annual drag show at my college where we raised money for local charities and foundations. Professional drag queens would volunteer their time, on a weekend where they could be working for real money, and talents to support our cause. They would prep and dress in the public bathrooms available on campus.
After a female student complained of the drag queens using the Women's room, the queens were asked very politely (I was standing right there) if they could please use the Men's room to change. The drag queens did so, but made no qualms about showing their outrage over the request. They found it insulting and outrageous that our Gay-Straight Alliance members were thrusting such labels upon them. Sorry, dude, but you've still got man parts. You belong in the Men's restroom.
Trannies, in my opinion, are a different story. Men who are transitioning into women need to become comfortable with the idea of using the Women's room, and I can see the psychological benefit of a person who is acting and looking like a woman to use the Women's room. The same has to be done by Women transitioning into Men. The cool thing about bathrooms is that everything personal (aside from men at the urinals) can be done behind a stall door, and even in the case of men using the urinals the woman who is using the Men's room would still be sitting behind a stall door to do her thing.
Trannies after transition shouldn't be a problem. They are now a man or woman and should use the respective bathroom to their sex.
And what about the rights of the real women using the toilets not to have a man dressed as a woman, or a Half n' half, or a pervo who only dressed as a women to get in there enter their toilets ???? Why do the rights of minority groups always take priority over the rights of common/average people when it comes to PC BS.
I said I could see the psychological benefit for those transitioning. I did not condone pervs and whatever other riffraff using the restrooms to pry into the privacy of women. I also did not say any one person or type of person took priority over anyone else.
Honestly, you can't stop someone from entering the toilet for the purpose of violating a woman's privacy. If they have such bad intentions, they will likely be able to do it and you can only punish them after the fact. It's not like there are DNA scanners at every entrance to be sure a person has the right chromosomes to enter.
If a tranny walked in and used the bathroom I can bet no one would even notice. They would go in and do their business just like everyone else and walk the heck out. They would have been taking hormones long enough they would look like a normal male/female (whatever's applicable) and they would be dressed like everyone else. No bells and whistles to alarm every female/male in the place of their presence.
It has nothing to do with Political Correctness. If a Male-to-Female tranny, who is living as a woman, walked into a Men's restroom to take a leak, the men would be the ones upset. If that same tranny walked into a Women's restroom, the women wouldn't notice. If it were just a cross-dresser, people will notice. If it is a group of male drag queens changing into tight clothing with big hair, people will notice. If it were anyone with bad intentions, people will notice.
