Banning ‘Woke’ Words in State Documents, Arkansas Governor Signs Executive Order

Lots and lots of straight guys feel that way about being around gay guys in the locker room etc.
Oh well.

Such a weak comparison!

One is a legitimate safety issue, one is not.

Millions of cis women no doubt disagree with you too.

Go to a meeting of women survivors of assault and make your case.

Go to a meeting of women survivors of assault and make your case.

Is that what shaped your views?
If so, I recommend broadening your experience
by attending meetings of trans women who
survived abuse by the church & assault by bigots.
It could be a real eye opener.

Hey, anyone can be a misogynist.

So let me ask you this, let's say that only 47% of women are concerned about a sex-based pay gap. Would your argument be that we can ignore those women?

Twice now, I've asked you to point out where you see the misogyny. Twice now, you have failed to point it out.
I'll not be answering your questions until you've made some progress in that area.

I'm a utilitarian and for the most part, that's how society operates. Based on the numbers, you are making a grossly non-utilitarian argument.

Unless I misunderstand you, you're saying that the concerns of 47% of women do not matter. Is that correct?

Where's the evidence of those claimed numbers?

My previous response was, "Is that supposed to be some sort of counter argument?
We just looked at numbers showing that a majority of women don't dread going into the washroom with trans people. I suggested that you are overexaggerating this "dread" you're talking about because it isn't borne out in the numbers. It seems to come from your personal experience asking women about it.
And we just looked at numbers showing that the people most likely to be harmed in public rest rooms are trans people.
Should we just let people experience dread, even if unwarranted? Why?

Parenthetical aside....
I've been called a "misogynist" by so many of such
varied political & religious persuasions here on RF
that the word has little more meaning than "poopy
head". It's just another expletive.

one of your allies on this thread made that claim. i'll be happy to go find it for you, but I will have to charge a steep hourly rate...

Hmm, I see. That does appear to be the case here.
I've never been called a misogynist before so that one's new to me.

I guess we don't want to draw attention to ourselves.

Have you ever gone to a meeting of women who have been assaulted by transgender women in a public bathroom?

Has there ever been such a meeting? When? Where?

This entire fad is a money maker for plastic surgeons and drug companies, who kick back to Lefty politicians who make laws to force feed this

Why don't you consider paying less attention to other people's genitals and maybe pay more attention to yours?
