Poll should ask “Would you like someone of the opposite gender walking in on you in a public restroom?”

The people of charlotte should vote out the scum that created such a law and elect people would promise to repeal it

We don’t need more laws

We need to get rid of existing bad laws

Any level of the government shouldn’t be able tell a business who can go in their bathrooms or not. If a business wants to make that decision, like Target or Trump, it seems like the market will take care of that or not. I sort of doubt women care enough about it to hurt them because of it, but we shall see in a few months I suppose.

As far as publically owned restrooms and other sex-exclusive areas, what can you say if the voters want to tolerate this insanity? It’s not that hard to see what party is 100% for men using the women’s facilities.

Not me. For the numbers they’re claiming it has to be the way they’re framing the question. I seriously doubt the accuracy of this poll.

Wrong question,.. intentional.

The real question should be...
“Are you ok with men in the bath, dressing, locker rooms and showers?”

That’s going to be the actual outcome of trans protection laws.

Love to see the poll on that.

I wonder if Obama would order the Secret Service to stand down if some sick freak in a dress decides he wants to use the ladies room while one of Obama’s daughters is in there?

North Carolina I’m quite sure that they provide bathrooms which are for transgender And those bathrooms can be used, as far as I know by anyone, depending on how they identify. If this question does not appear in the poll the poll is 100% bogus.

Bullcr@p.

I’d like to see how they phrase the questions, or posed theoretical situations made possible by the de-sexing of restrooms.

“But do we need another law?”

Yes if other entities pass laws or regulations that impose rules on you that you don’t like.

You have to open not just bathrooms, but showers, dressing rooms etc. to all sexes. You’re forcing others to expose themselves or to be exposed to others that you may not want to under penalty of law.

I’m OK with it ... because it will force the issue.
Bring it on men. Go in the women’s restrooms. I so much want this to happen. I never wish I were a man but in this instance I do ... I would be making a protest by going in women’s restrooms all over the place.

That’s exactly what the NC state legislature did. It got rid of a bad law in Charlotte which also prevented other liberal bastions from doing the same thing. Why you have a problem with it, after saying you want to get rid of bad laws, remains a mystery.

The poll sampled 1001 people. Of those sampled, 31% described themselves as Democrats, 26% described themselves as Republicans, and 43% described themselves as independents. It claims a sampling error of +- 3%. While it claims to be representative by region of country, there are no details provided as to the number interviewed by region and whether or not those sampled were rural or urban dwellers.

One of the most interesting statistics is 14% of those sampled claimed to have a family member or close friend who is transgender. This is surprising given other surveys which show the number of transgender people in the country is 0.2 to 0.3 percent of the total.

57% say they oppose laws requiring transgender individuals to use facilities that do not match their gender identity,

People broadly oppose things worded like gobbledy-gook.

I believe 80+% support laws that say "Boys should use the boys' room and girls should use the girls' room."

It’s scary as hell going into a restroom & having a 6’4”
cross-dresser with a day’s growth of black beard come
sashaying out of the stall beside the one you’re planning
on entering. (I try not to have to use the restroom when I’m
out; but sometimes you just can’t hold it back until you
get home.) Libs are just now making an “issue” out of
a non-issue that has taken care of itself in the past.

Why in heck does any man in his right mind actually WANT to
wear tight girdles, bras, makeup & perfume? I don’t; and I
am a woman!

I have to agree with you, but CNN and other MSM outlets conveniently omit the cause of all this.

I just find this to stretch credibility. I’m sure even libtards only favor it when their wife or daughter isn’t in the restroom when a tranny uses it.
