I can't support unrestricted transgender access to male and female bathrooms and locker rooms.

June 26, 2016


I can't.  It's going to be abused by boys and men who are not transgender and who want to rape girls and women, and it will also be abused by boys and men who want to harm transgender boys and men in male facilities.

I know that I have said some things in the past that were inappropriate and insensitive about some transgender people, but that's not what this is.  

I know that it's tough to be transgender, and I'm sorry about that.  Life is not always what we would like it to be, and you can't put so many people at real physical risk just because transgender people would rather not have other people think they're weird.

The people who think that transgender people are weird are going to think that no matter which bathroom anyone uses. Hopefully, they'll mature, as society gets educated about gender issues.  

I have had so many people think that I'm weird that I could never know or say how many have thought that.  There are far more terrible things than having some people think you're weird.
