The vocal minority

The Line is a call in show on YouTube which covers many topics including transgender issues and the associated science. 

The hosts are highly informed and educated Millenials who regrettably often deal with people who are hard pressed to string coherent sentences together. I laud them greatly for having a level of patience for these types I no longer possess. 

The bathroom issue comes up frequently and I watch these callers get tied up in their own logic. Whenever it is presented to them they deflect because their cause is simply to deny transgender people their humanity. 

There are even some passing privileged transgender people who have called in (a la Blaire White) defending discrimination against those who don't meet a minimum bar of femininity. Thus using their logic, a butch lesbian must use extreme caution when entering a woman's restroom. 

I've been using the ladies room for many years without incident save for twice when I was asked if I was transsexual. Even then it was framed politely and I have never felt unsafe but then I live in an enlightened part of the world. 

The reality is that people are now less likely to care about transgender people but at the same time more likely to doubt the biological sex regardless of presentation. Some biological women don't pass inspection and there are incidents of taller and brawnier looking women being confronted for failing a visual analysis by a Karen looking for a fight. 

Stupidity is not a bug within humanity but instead a glaring and ever present feature. 

Despite the GOP backlash in the US, most people don't consider bathroom politics an issue compared to their daily problems. My life experience bears this out completely because intelligent, well-adjusted and kind people tend not to have aggression towards others. 

It's always the vocal and troubled minority making trouble for the rest.
