How is my mere presence within the same bathroom as a minor girl obscene?

...it is a statement of morality not a personal attack . Fortunately there are laws based on that morality to protect the innocents .

By focusing on that aspect of the issue (violence against a certain group) in stead of just the issue (violence), you promote the categorization of different groups within a society.
We are all individuals with rights, no matter our skincolor, gender, sexuality, ... By focusing on one aspect of a group of individuals, you make that aspect an issue.

By focusing on the fact that (in this situation) a transgendered person was beaten, you lose sight of the plain fact that a person was beaten.


I disagree, we don't lose sight of the plain fact that a person was beaten, as we take notice of the fact that a person was beaten because they are transgendered and were using the bathroom that they ought be free to use. It brings light to a greater issue we face within society, which is transphobia.

Why something happens is just as important as what actually happened. For instance, if we just take 'a person was beaten', then we're not really telling the whole story, nor are we addressing the major issue here.

The fact that he has identity/psycological issues is irrelevant. Men don't belong in public female's bathroom with teenage girls.

I have my own set of morals, as do you. Merely because ours don't align doesn't mean that I lack decency.

Also, my question still stands:

How is my mere presence within the same bathroom as a minor girl obscene?

Discretion? What, is your penis going to fly out and twirl around as soon as you walk into the bathroom? Give me a break...

Think about the children instead of your irrational attempt to defend some misguided gay rights agenda. How about it might make the child uncormfortable, or respecting the parents of the child.

It's fucking retarded to think it's OK for grown man to share a bathroom with underage girls.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree here.
I understand where you're coming from, and I do agree that it's important understand a motive behind a crime (on an individual and/or societal level). But I don't really see the point to differentiate between a crime and a hatecrime, as such.

If our children are growing up to be made uncomfortable by the thought of using the same bathroom as someone of a differing sex, then we as a society have a lot of changing to do.

Also, you never really answered my question, so with the bolded: Why?

Why is it wrong for a man to take a piss in the same room as a girl, provided he doesn't flash his penis or otherwise behaves inappropriately?

He walks in, goes into an unoccupied stall, takes a piss, washes his hands, walks out? Where's the harm, exactly?
