    House Passes Equality Act, Provides Civil Rights Protections To Gay And Transgender People | The Daily Caller
    ---
    --In a 224-206 vote, the House passed the Equality Act. H.R. 5 would amend the 1964 Civil Rights Act in order to prevent “discrimination on the basis of sex, gender identity and sexual orientation.” Three Republicans voted with Democrats in favor of the Equality Act.
    --The act would mandate that individuals cannot be denied access to the locker room of their choice.
    --“An individual shall not be denied access to a shared facility, including a restroom, a locker room and a dressing room, that is in accordance with the individual’s gender identity,” according to the bill’s text.
    --Democrats tried to pass the Equality Act in 2019, but it was killed by a Republican-controlled Senate.
    ---

    Is there a democrat/liberal on the PF who is in favor of this act? If so why? Any democrat against the act? If so why? Speak up, man.

    Democrats love this stuff. If you want to get a Democrat really excited tell it you know where some kids are that want to learn about gender identity. They will run there faster than a fat kid chasing an ice cream truck.

    I wonder if this policy will apply to cages?

    Do you think a landlord should be able to evict a person just because of their sex?
    Should a hospital be able to refuse service to a gay person?

    I thought Republicans were against "cancel culture"?

    You don't need to worry about a woman who identifies as a man pulling down the zipper of their pants to use the urinal next to you and trying to take "a peek". Imagine if a woman with long hair and full make up pulls up "her" dress to use the urinal next to yours. Wouldn't you prefer they use the women's bathroom instead? Or would you rather they just go wherever they're standing.

    Not a dem or a lib, but I'm fine with this. I don't know if I'll ever understand why so many folks seem to care which genitals the person in the next stall has.

    Why try to change the subject? Are you supporting the "identity of choice" is appropriate here?

    I don't get your point here? I've been in clubs in Europe where women saunter up to the urinal, hook a finger and let go. Nothing to see there, of course, so what's your point?

    Same here. Neither a Dem or a Lib but this doesn't bother me in the least bit. Then again, I don't get worked over little things in life. Apparently some people always need to be outraged about something. They go from one issue to another....I don't know how they have the energy to be outraged over so many things.

    Yes, this is what we voted for. Gender identity is typically what they present as and how they live day to day.
    I also don’t understand sex segregation in restrooms or dressing rooms — do you typically watch others in this environment? Why is it an issue?

    They would rather these people not exist at all.

    I wonder if this would apply to jails and prisons.

    I also wonder how it would effect juvenile girls who ordinarily use a female shower/locker room with only other biological females.

    And then, of course, the question of biological males competing in women’s sports.

    I'm sure the Lincoln Project can help chase after the kids.

    I think government should treat everyone the same. There shouldn't be a need to make a law. It is inherent in the founding documents. I guess girl athletes are going to lose out in the end.

    Not all dressing rooms have stalls. I guess you are OK with a male in a dressing room ogling eight-year-old girls? That's the trouble with liberals -- they can't think ahead.
    We're not Europe, we're the USA and we have a different culture here. Why is it OK to upset majority of the population for just a few perverts.

    What dressing rooms don't have stalls? And what parent lets their kid go into an allegedly stall-less dressing room alone? This sounds like bad parenting, a fictional place, or both.

    That's the trouble with some folks, they make **** up.

    The only perverts I see are the ones who desperately need to know which genitals the other folks in the bathroom, dressing room, etc have. They seem super obsessive about it. It's weird.

    What about them being molested by their coaches and trainers? Their mother’s new creepy boyfriend? Sport locker rooms tend to be somewhat supervised. They are not private places where a man could rape a girl, and not be in full view of others. Public rape isn’t a popular sport in America.

    If you can't tell the deference between walking into a bathroom and raping someone, maybe do some soul searching.

    In regards to your signature. We did vote for Obama, and if it was possible for him to run again, he would have widespread popular support. Biden was chosen because he was the compromise to bring never-Trump Republicans on board, and their money. Otherwise we most like would now have America’s first Jewish president, rather than its oldest.

    The idea that a male rapist is stopped by a "Women's" locker room sign is mind-boggling.
