Weird... why is nobody commenting about how both parties are the same?
Oh that's easy, because this doesn't play into their narrative
Their goal is to stop people from voting this year so that the fascist can win
Lol. Right? It looks like the bots haven't gotten to this one yet
And so few ml posters! How odd!
The other party loudly proclaimed they don’t want this afaik so… or atleast associate themselves with that idea based on who they elect.

I wonder if that’ll make it legal for me to piss in the men’s bathroom again/have a job in the career I love and went thousands in debt to train for… only mentions students and they tend to forget that trans adults exist…
Oklahoma state law says it’s a misdemeanor and schools can lose up to 10% of their funding for letting anyone (teacher or student) use a bathroom that doesn’t match their birth certificate. (There’s been a standing executive order since 2015 that birth certificates cannot be changed). I have the face and body of a reddit neckbeard, but I was violating the law by not pissing in the same room as my female colleagues and students.
Just kinda messes with your head when you have to commit 1-3 crimes a day at work.
I thought Title IX was about students though?
It applies generally to anyone involved in a program receiving federal funding.
Yeah - that’s what I wondering. The law in Oklahoma says anyone in a public school. Our state department of education is controlled by Ryan Walters and LibsOfTikTok, so it’ll be interesting to see how they try to fight this.

Those are rookie numbers!
...drink more water dude
Part of teaching is peeing strategically - you have to plan your water drinking so that you only need to go during lunch or plan. (The worst is when they make you “cover” during your planning period - usually I could get away with sitting behind the desk and doing a subtle pee dance all hour)

Lawsuit from Florida in 3... 2... 1...
This is good news! Trans students will just be using the bathroom, cisgender students are the ones that may be abusing this with negative intentions.
Stay kind, everyone!
Finally some good news for once
Take that, Florida!
