    OK, I have an idea: I come up there, and catch you, and we split the reward money! We could make a fortune if we kept doing this.

    This is absolutely genius, except for one thing...

    Good point! That's where the clever disguises come in.

    This is an LGBT sitcom just waiting to happen. I will come in dressed as a lesbian priest towards the end.

    Just bring more people from here to catch Kaiser. Make a fund raiser out of it or something. Just leave me some gas money to get home.

    And I know I shouldn't be joking on this... but hell... where is the bathroom Marked Hideyoshi when you need one? (Baka and Test reference).

    But seriously. Great way to make trans students not come to school or contemplate suicide. Friends of Transgender students will be selling them out. And greed is the motivator. It's sickening.

    Eventually, no school is going to have me, because I'm such a slut, going into the bathroom to be with oh so many people! On top of that, it's costing them money.

    LOL.

    We need to tag team. Or, what if you and I catch each other. Do we both get $2500?

    I'm glad you are having such a good time with this. It pisses me off. I just want to right a letter to the Kentucky lawmakers.

    This is how it would go. And the Letter will contain two words that take up the hole piece of paper. Excluding the Dear... and Sincerely... parts. Here goes...

    Dear Kentucky law makers,

    F**K YOU!

    Sincerely, The guy you just pissed off.

    That'd be my letter.

    And a slut? Nah... I don't think so. Then again, I don't know you. But still... I don't think you are a slut. I am... well... in my head I am.

    This is evil. I should point out--for like the millionth time--that nobody seems to care about ciswomen sexually assaulting each other in the bathroom. It only becomes a concern for transwomen in the bathroom. Nor has it escaped my notice that nobody cares about what happens to transmen.

    More generally, this measure is evil because it's just another oppressive measure being taken on the basis of fear that doesn't address any of the real problems that actually exist.

    Our society is terrible at dealing with rape and sexual assault. Primarily, this is because we don't want to believe that people who commits rape might be our friends or colleagues. We never want to believe a rapist could be someone famous. We never want to believe the person could be an intimate partner or a family member.

    In short, we'd like to maintain rape and sexual assault mythology, while oppressing unrelated people, and refusing to deal with the actual problem.

    So all I've got to do is ask someone if they mind me examining their gonads and karyotype?
    What a practical idea!!!

    Who wants to volunteer to be purposefully caught by me? We can split the money 50/50...


    Honestly though, what the hell kind of law is that?

    No wonder urinary tract infections are unfortunately not uncommon among trans folk, especially the number of trans men I've spoken with. But nobody gives a shit about the trans guys, even though our society targets trans women due to misogyny/sexism--and for that, I truly feel for the women who have to endure and deal with fucksticks like these people who pass invasive, discriminating, and downright idiotic laws.

    For fuck's sake, the "wrong" bathroom? I'm pretty sure if I went into the women's restroom after not having shaved for a week, I'd make plenty of women feel rather uncomfortable. :rolle:
