No but someone who was not my boyfriend once bought one for me.

anything can be used as sexual aid ;)

Do sharpies count?

You clearly don't understand what segregation means....

Some remedies like that can work but on a much smaller scale. If you have a stomach ache you dont need to rush to the doctor and get prescriptions. Sometimes just a Ginger Ale will work. Its not medicinal but it for minor things its fine.

if you have fuckin cancer or something serious drinking Ginger Ale and rubbing stones on your body wont do anything. Get the fuckin medical help.

$500 is too much for Apple quality headphones. That's like paying $5000 for an iphone

riti Patel is expected to reveal a bill that will allow the UK to hold asylum seekers in Australian-style offshore processing centres, according to reports.
The Home Secretary has even opened talks with Denmark over sharing a centre in Africa in a move aimed to discourage dangerous Channel crossings, The Times reported.
The Nationality and Borders Bill, which will be introduced next week, will include a provision that will allow the Government to create an offshore immigration processing centre for asylum seekers for the first time.
Boris Johnson is reportedly backing the plans after 315 migrants crossed the Channel over the weekend, taking this years total to 5,676.
Ms Patel is seeking advice from Denmark after they passed a similar bill last month with the Scandinavian nation said to be planning to send asylum seekers to a centre in Rwanda.

The Home Office has also studied Australias policy, which bans asylum seekers travelling by sea and redirects them to offshore immigration accommodation centres in states such as Papua New Guinea.

Charities and MPs hit out at the plans calling offshore processing cruel and brutally hostile.
Enver Solomon, chief executive of the Refugee Council charity, said: For generations men, women and children seeking protection in the UK have been given a fair hearing on British soil.
Most have rebuilt their lives as law-abiding citizens making a huge contribution to our communities.
Offshore processing is an act of cruel and brutal hostility towards vulnerable people who through no fault of their own have had to flee war, oppression and terror.
The SNPs Westminster group leader, Ian Blackford tweeted: If Priti Patel wants to send asylum seekers to Rwanda she will have a fight on her hands. Not in our name. We treat people with respect and dignity. This is inhumane in the extreme. Where is our humanity?
This Tory Government is prepared to engage in morally reprehensible behaviour,

The policy matches the German far-right AfD partys demands to have asylum centres in North African regions.
It comes after a diplomatic row ensued with Gibraltar and the Isle of Man after the Government considered asking a number of overseas British territories to hold the centres.
Other leaks included plans to send asylum seekers to Ascension Island, more than 4,000 miles from the UK, to be processed, and turning disused ferries out at sea into processing centres. The Government dismissed the plans as blue-sky thinking at the time.
A Home Office spokesperson said: Our asylum system is broken and we cannot sit idly by while people die attempting to cross the Channel. Our New Plan for Immigration will welcome people through safe and legal routes, whilst preventing abuse of the system and the criminality associated with it.
We have been looking at what other countries do to deter illegal migration and this work continues. We will not rule out any option that could help reduce the illegal migration and relieve the pressure on the broken asylum system.

Seemingly per the place's policy, no, but the place is wrong for having that policy without notifying their customers that they have a section of their business in which one may encounter nudity of the opposite biological sex at any time. That is not something people will expect without warning, and that is not something people should be subjected to without warning. If people don't care, then they'll use the facility as normal. If people care, they won't use the facility.

There's literally been attempts (some successful) that banned trans people from using the proper facilities. If your concern is people passing those laws, they were doing it already. Basically? Fuck off.

Cant let those minorities get too uppity and start demanding equal treatment or even basic respect

Their eggs are pretty good

Then why dont you think people should be respectful towards trans people

CE should have exploded from irony when someone unironically stated that its unfair to presume people want to share bathrooms for predatory reasons . . . then accused someone of sexual predation simply for jokingly saying theyd be ok with them, despite that poster never mentioning any action that would constitute predation.

I dont need to give you respect when you frizz out over the fact that someone is righteously upset over an issue that affects them and you say you need to calm down first

thats just a fools game son

Laying down what parameters would work and wouldnt work seemed like the fun part of a discussion like this - but it wont happen when youre needlessly stonewalling a conversation because you want respect of some sort

mmmhm. they don't want to see, hear, or notice trans people in any meaningful way.

We shouldn't be seeking meerly acceptance from a society that wants only complacency and compliance. We should be demanding respect and justice.

If you want us to accept trans people and give them equal treatment then they have to behave how I want them to is never going to be a good argument and will always be transphobic.

And yet you keep blaming them anyway.

I want a society that accepts trans people and I will blame trans people every step of the way until we get there is where your argument is at right now. Muddying the name of transpeople for being a woman in a space for women is just transphobic bulls***.

naaaah bro. I just...think we should have equality...hahaha...

Youre really good at blaming trans people for being victims of transphobia.

Machine, I dont think you're making a good point here...

You keep putting the onus on oppressed people to cater to the feelings of the majority rather than accepting that the best way for everything to move forward is to accept trans women as women which includes allowing them into womens spaces.

If someone does not want to see another person naked then the onus is on them to avoid areas where others will be naked. By entering into an area where there will be naked women, a person is consenting to seeing the genitals attached to women, regardless of whether that person is trans or cis.

Its explicitly clear that women belong in womens spaces. if youre looking for something to explicitly say that trans women also belong, youre separating trans women from the broad category of women. If you view trans women as women then you dont need an explicit warning that trans women are in womens spaces.

I just don't see why it would bother someone, unless they don't recognize the validity of trans women

If you dont want to see naked people then avoid areas where people are naked. By knowingly and consensually entering an area where women could be naked, you are consenting to possibly seeing womens genitalia. If a person wishes to avoid that possibility, they can avoid the area where other women may be nude. I dont understand why this is such a hard concept for some people to understand.

You constantly bounce back and forth between "I support trans women and wish we were in a place where this wasn't an issue" and "What if they don't want to see a penis, huh!?"

I think it's a little weird how much we've normalized the idea that a penis is threatening.

We've normalized rape culture so much, just the sight of a penis is traumatizing

Yeah but since a screaming guy on the internet kept saying I'm cool with animal abuse (or something?) then it must be true!

What fucking animal abuse, guy

Segregation is forced separation inflicted upon an inferior by a superior. Separation is one party choosing to build their own future by doing for self.

The people of Hong Kong for example are fighting for a free society where they can dictate their own future, and most Americans openly support them

This is a very strange comparison. Were talking about integration and youve been saying that trans people are wrong when they fully integrate. If a black person was attacked for opening a business, who would you blame?
