This is to keep men from dressing up as women useing the womens rest rooms ?

How many non trans men would actually do that? How would you enforce it?

I feel like this law doesnt protect anyone, and it steps on the toes of the trans communite for no real reason at all.

Yup and it totally ridiculous. Under that law this man (who was born a woman) has to use the women's bathroom:

@PatMcCroryNC It's now the law for me to share a restroom with your wife. #HB2 #trans #NorthCarolina #shameonNC pic.twitter.com/4b4OdmfmeN

That sums up perfectly the impracticality and overreach of this law. 

Let's be honest: this law is meant to fire up the base, to appeal to those who are scared of or feel icky about LGBT. It's not designed to fix a problem. Because there is no problem.

I guess LGBT is the new boogeyman. It's a shame.

If it means anything, I stand with my fellow global citizens, whatever their sexual orientation or gender.
