		<description>All genders must have equal rights as long as they are doing well and don&#039;t do illegal things that can make the community to be alarmed. Equal respect must be done to male, female and transgenders around the world so that there is no criticism. </description>

		<description>Adding to alexmac&#039;s comment: A trans woman harassing cisgender (non-trans) women in the bathroom? No, typically it happens the *other way around*. Trans women just want to use the bathroom and leave, like anybody else. The &quot;men in the ladies room&quot; ploy is just an ignorant scare tactic.</description>

		<description>I had just two points. First, transgender man is an incredibly confusing and inaccurate way to describe trans women as in they identify as women but are transversing from a male body.  A transgender man is a femaled bodied person who identifies as a man.  Second, the men in women&#039;s bathroom lie is used by every opponent of nondiscrimination ordinances, they are so unoriginal they recycle the same name in gainesville they were citizens for good public policy.</description>
