After reading Ms Lomas' article "Bathroom Law Battle Begins to Take Hold in Texas" I can agree with many of the statements she made within her blog. She writes about how Texas has looked into creating a law that states “no men are allowed in women’s bathrooms” (Lomas.) If passed, this law would exclude transgendered people from using public restrooms.
If you ask me this completely screams discrimination. Texas claims this to protect transgendered people from acts of violence towards them. Transgendered people use public restrooms just like blacks, whites, hispanics, asians, etc.
Lomas says that this is not a big deal; and people are blowing this way out of proportion that what it really is, which is true.
I would of loved to hear these other solutions Lomas’ mentions in her ending paragraph, as well as what the opposing side really thinks about transgenders using public restrooms. Regardless of those solutions or not Ms. Lomas is right again. You can really change what people believe and Texas is a vastly conservative state so would these solutions even make a difference?
