Nebraska governor signs order narrowly defining sex as that assigned at birth
apnews.com
Nebraska’s Republican Gov. Jim Pillen on Wednesday signed an executive order strictly defining a person’s sex.
The order notably does not use the term “transgender,” although it appears directed at limiting transgender access to certain public spaces. It orders state agencies to define “female” and “male” as a person’s sex assigned at birth.
“It is common sense that men do not belong in women’s only spaces,” Pillen said in a statement. “As Governor, it is my duty to protect our kids and women’s athletics, which means providing single-sex spaces for women’s sports, bathrooms, and changing rooms.”

I mean, no law is 100% effective.
Are you saying we shouldn't have laws against murder because people will still murder?
We already have laws against sexual assault and harassment. The purpose of this law is to harass trans people not to protect anyone.
It will end up only hurting people, many of whom won't even be trans. We've already seen masculine-looking women getting subjected to this kind of law in other states. It's nothing more than the government abusing its own citizens.
Trans people taking a dump aren't hurting anyone.
Murder is bad
A woman having a shit in a stall (whilst having a Y chromosome) is pretty neutral
Anyway, answer the FtM question
I did.
Watch your tone.
I apologise for missing your comment
We already have laws against spying on people in the bathroom, and it applies to everyone.
Ok, why are you telling me this?
Tell it to the guy who thinks laws don't work.
Because your argument is invalid either way. This law doesn't protect women from bathroom predators. We have laws that protect women from bathroom predators, and if they are effective, we don't need this law, and if they are ineffective, then we don't need this law.
The purpose of this law is to discriminate against transgender individuals. Any other justification is bullshit.
Yes, which is effective. If it wasn't, then why would people be getting upset?
I would like a law that religious figure are no longer eligible to run tax free organizations if they meet at the White House
I mean, churches shouldn't be tax exempt no matter what.
I am fine with that. Tax them the way we do corporations. Same for any group that lobbies, like CATO. It is obnoxious how the wealthy are able to lobby can get jobs for their nephew by proxy tax avoidance schemes.
Koch wants certain laws passed. Koch gives money to CATO so CATO can lobby for them. CATO is a non-profit.
