The clash over bathroom policy and other elements of a federal regulation finalized last week could set the stage for another wave of legal battles over how transgender kids should be treated in the U.S.

Sorry… are you suggesting schoolkids should use (pretty unsanitary) outdoor porta potties?
In the Midwest? In February?
I spent my childhood using port-o-potties during summer athletic events/tournaments, with weather that was above 105F. In the winter, I played on travel sports teams that practiced in places that had no other bathroom facility except port-o-potties. Sometimes the weather was around 32F during those winter mornings. So, yeah, I guess I’m saying you’ll survive it.
Another alternative is to build single stall bathrooms that have a door which opens into the main hallway of the school. Many schools have already built these for faculty use. It’s just a small room that contains one toilet, one sink, and has ac/heat for climate control. They would need an entire wing of these for student use, to accommodate everyone, but at least there wouldn’t be a large open room for students to congregate and cause fights. No one is going to be beating another student’s head against a sink, or the floor, in a single occupant bathroom.
Sorry… “you’ll survive it” is your reasoning there? Also, you do know it gets more like -32F in the Midwest in February, right?
I guess you’re ignoring the indoor equivalent that I mentioned.
I was ignoring it because you were suggesting it wasn’t necessary.
It’s just another alternative. Just so you know, I didn’t downvote you.
That’s fine, although I wouldn’t have been bothered by it if you did. If someone doesn’t like what I have to say, downvote away.
Although there’s some crazy person who regularly goes into my post history and downvotes everything. I’m not going to tell them to stop, but it seems like quite a waste of time.
That keeps happening to me, too. Thats why I thought I should mention it to you. I noticed your last comment, and the ones above it were all downvoted within the last minute.
I don’t even usually downvote when I disagree with someone. Pretty much only when someone is being a complete shithead (which you were not being, to be clear).
