@MaryAustinBooks we were joking about this online a year ago - the consensus was it was too dangerous to recommend and was probably not a good idea. So of *course* the men took that as a challenge.

In this case, using the women's room ironically in protest is literally the most bro thing a guy can do, hereby proving the point that trans men are *obviously* men.

@MaryAustinBooks I love this! It reminds me of the Wiggle bike protest in SF in which a bunch of cyclists obeyed the law en-masse to prove a point: https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/S-F-bike-riders-Wiggle-protest-could-stop-6413072.php

That one was described in that article as "the unusual act of engaging in civil obedience" which always cracks me up

@MaryAustinBooks it's similar to the campaign that these very brave trans people started many years ago.

And we still need it.

@MaryAustinBooks "So in the case of your bathrooms, this business considers trans men to be men? Great, sign here please!" Could be a way to collect irrefutable facts for if the law goes to court. "Well this huge stack of businesses all have stated in signed doccuments that they consider trans men to be men."

@crcollins @MaryAustinBooks the bills make sense if your goal is to cause harm

@MaryAustinBooks This made my day, and possibly my week, tho’ it’s only Monday. May the Benevolent Market Force bless these guys and the horses they ride in on.

This is the goal: to make it impossible to comply. For those who are true believers, this will anger them. Not because these men are pointing out the inherent absurdity of forcing some men to use the ladies room and vice versa, but because these men (and women) still exist. The law's intent is to make transgender people disappear one way or another, to make it that much easier for us to lose jobs or get arrested, to keep tightening that ratchet.

I applaud these brave men. That's not sarcasm. They are risking their livelihood or fines and jail time. I hope those who think they are moderate centrists wake up. Maybe they'll even stop celebrating Harry Potter.
