Men are men and women are women

Locker rooms are based on biological principles, not psychological. If a woman "identifies" as a male. She will still have XX Chromosomes, opposite to the male XY. She will still have inherent female traits and issues even after a surgery.

Men are men, and women are women, regardless to what mental state they may be in. We can respect them, but when has the rights of a few, trumped the rights of the many?

When has the feelings of an individual become more important than the privacy of a hundred?

Our societal norms and values are drastically changing. We currently have 63 genders you can identify as. In a recent survey of 13-20 year olds, 56 percent say that they know someone who uses gender neutral pronouns like "they" or "them."

I ask you, has any mother ever given birth to a child that was not a boy or a girl?

We now worry about lawsuits, far more than we worry about our country and our children.
