Changes to the DSM happen every time it’s revised and those changes are not always based just on science. There is always intense lobbying from patients, insurance companies, and psychiatrists themselves.

And in fact, there is no clear scientific explanation for a lot of psychiatric “disorders” (most psychiatric disorders?) which often makes it difficult for changes to the DSM to be based only on science.

That’s nonsense.

Of course they do, but the point of her article that I see is, that there instances of where men have dressed as women to access a certain location for example. In the case of Jason Pomares, presumably he dressed that way at least in part to access a certain location, a female “restroom” - see article here: nbclosangeles.com/news/local/Secret-Recording-Store-Mall-Antelope-Valley-Palmdale-Restroom-207541101.html

The point of the author’s article is not that all transgender people are perverts, but that transgender bathrooms could be abused by men seeking perversion and that frankly, some transgender people may be dissapointed that bathrooms can not be transgender, but in order to protect individuals on a larger scale, that may be the price that will have to be paid.

How often does that happen and does that happen as often as transwomen are attacked or harassed in the restroom?

So are we are now going by the acronyms of the name of the place that conducts/publishes the study, not the methodology?

After reading so many studies that starts with a conclusion, gathers data, discards stuff that doesn’t fit the conclusion and then presents the data as proof of their hypothesis one starts to become skeptical and dismissive of the whole thing, kind of like after you’ve been fooled twenty times by the National Enquirer as a tabloid rag or dismissing the Tobacco Institute as partisan hacks.
 
Calling this heinous piece of legislation a “national embarrassment,” North Carolina’s Attorney General Roy Cooper said that his office will not defend it in against a federal challenge.
“Not only is this new law a national embarrassment, it will set North Carolina’s economy back if we don’t repeal it,” Cooper said. “We know that businesses here and all over the country have taken a strong stance in opposition to this law.”

Not at all. Liberals and those support progressive causes like to alledge “embarrassment” whenever they don’t get their way.

Also, one can’t help but notice how all of these folks who support gay and trans rights were nonexistent 15 years ago, but suddenly it’s the most important thing in some folks’s lives.

My, how people love a bandwagon.

Can’t wait to see what happens to GLBTQ persons should sharia law ever become :cool: in the USA.

Then Cooper should resign. He’s been a pathetic excuse for an AG to begin with.

Why should the state defend a law that almost certainly runs afoul of Federal law? Do you think that’s a good use of taxpayer money, defending a law that likely even its supporters knows is doomed?

Except that it is his job. His job isn’t to decide what laws to defend and what laws not to defend. His job isn’t to invalidate democracy. He also didn’t defend the marriage amendment. I guess he doesn’t do much in his job other than run for governor.

One attack is too one too many.

Question, if one attack is too many then what do you do if one ciswoman is attacked in the women’s restroom for every twenty transwomen attacked? Is one death too many which is why abortion should be free and permissible at any stage to protect the life of any mother, or is it the twenty fetus that one death is too many?

I’m sure that some Christians would like to impose a Christian equivalent of shari’a law on everyone. 😉

Including reinstating sodomy laws, which the good Protestant Henry VIII instituted to persecute the Church and steal it’s property because that is Catholic tea… oh.

Please be specific from the bill; what exactly runs afoul of federal law?
