Another Nail in the Coffin of Logical Thought
In an incredibly surprising decision, transgendered people may now use whatever restroom they choose at any MTA property. Additionally, the MTA will be “rewarding” one transgendered person $2,000 for being arrested three times for using the woman’s bathroom, when as far as I can tell from the multiple articles, she is still biologically a man (I had a very hard time phrasing that sentence).
Now, I was raised not to pass judgment on any group, and I believe very much in a “Live and Let Live” mentality… As long as someone isn’t hurting or hindering other people by their life choices, I don’t feel it is my business. But, this is very much a case of the MTA having to pander to a protesting group, having to choose in favor of political correctness over logic. It is irrelevant what this woman “feels like.” If she has male equipment, she should use the men’s room. If she has female equipment, she should use the woman’s room. I don’t see any two ways about it, or any room for debate! This is an issue of biology!
Yes, this woman now feels more comfortable, but what about the other people in the room? Granted, most probably will not know, but whether they know or not, their privacy has been infringed upon to make this group feel comfortable. If this was a former transgendered person who now had the female parts, this would not be an issue. She would feel like a woman, and would in fact be a woman biologically. But it is not. What is to stop a horny straight guy from putting on a dress and going into the woman’s room? Who makes up the rules? Why should the rest of the customers be inconvenienced because this person, who may “feel” like a woman but is biologically a man, doesn’t want to use the bathroom that is intended for them?
Sorry for the rant, but this is really aggravating! We give more and more up in the name of political correctness every day. Where does it end?

What is this world coming to? How much do you get for the fourth arrest and so on? Does the MTA have so much free time on their hands that they have the ability to draft such a recockulous policy that might very well affect less than 1/1,000,000 of one percent of the population? Apparently so. So, can I adorn a wig, stuff my chest with silicon pads, crank up the pitch on my vocals and wander into a women’s restroom? Wow, this might not be such a bad policy after all! I can do all of that and get paid? The more I think about, the better this actually sounds. Oh, and one more thing, does this policy stay in effect during Halloween? On second thought, I’ll pass, after using the lav, women smell like swamp, just a keen observation from the king of rank.
Check this out.. The new sign for the bathroom
@Man, haha, that great
@Rank, Good user of recockulous.
Why not put them in the disability section and make them use the handicapped (or whatever you call it this year) bathroom?
Anyway, who goes to the bathroom in subway stations?
1. How many transgendered people are there in NYC that the MTA is allowing this?
2. Man or woman, who the f wants to use a public toilet here?
@Neil: Yes, that is another good example of overly PC bull… They always have a new name for handicapped… Differently Abled, Physically Challenged. What is the difference what it is called? Why is “handycapped” an insult?
@Dhaval: Apparently, there are enough transgendered people to make a stink and make a difference, that the MTA had to fold. Also, that shill group ACLU was probably all over this laying down threats. I believe that this was not related to subway bathrooms, but the rest rooms at Grand Central, which are marginally better than subway bathrooms.
