Transgender Rights Research Paper

ANSWER: There were 3 types of bathrooms, one for men, ladies and one for colored.

First up to analyzing this article is by using a tool concept called the sociological lens. Sociologists use sociological lens to think critically about everyday life, everyday assumptions while also challenging the natural aspects of life. The main issue in this article is that people with different body parts should go different restrooms. More specifically, people with penises should not be allowed to go into female restrooms because it is viewed as dangerous. However, if we analyze this through a sociological lens, the segregation of bathrooms based on gender is a rather new phenomenon. For example, the article states that prior to the Victorian Era, men and women would use the same

In this week reading, “Calling All Restroom Revolutionaries”, by Simone Chess, Alison Kafer, Jessi Quizar, and Mattie Udora Richardson they expressed three main points throughout the article. The first main point in this article is that “ bathrooms are easier to access for some of us than for others.” This is an issue that some people don’t know about or don’t even think is a problem. Recently this has been a hotbed topic, within the media but I have been aware of this problem for sometime now. Many of my close friends have expressed their concerns about the bathroom situation well before this became a newsworthy topic. In addition, this topic has always bothered me because it is a bathroom and people mostly use the bathroom for two purposes.

I believe that the talk of toilet habits or one’s bodily waste is not a present conversation in any social situations. Moreover, the incontinence sufferers have to face the social stigma of the symptoms of the this condition and that intensifies the stress of the condition.

New York City Council voted 47-2 to pass a legislation to remove "men" and "women" sign from single-occupancy bathrooms, and it now moves to Mayor Bill De Blasio for signature, who is expected to approve it.

While washing my hands next to a complete stranger I heard talking coming from one of the stalls and it seemed like the voice was being directed to one of the stalls next to it. Listening closer, I heard a lady from one stall ask the lady in the one to the left of hers if she could pass her a roll of toilet paper after she was done using it because the stall this lady was in didn’t have anymore. Kindly, the woman agrees and gives her the roll of paper. As I continued washing my hands and minding my own business the woman next to me seemed to have been bothered by the woman asking for toilet paper. The lady pushed up her nose and made a “nasty” face as if she were disgusted. On her way out she left yelling, “It’s a public bathroom you don’t get what you want.” This made no sense to me but I could tell this person was bothered by what was asked and didn’t like what had happened. This norm can be considered a folkway, which are norms that are not strictly enforced because not many times out of our lives are we told not to ask people in public restrooms for toilet

I can count on there being a restroom designed for my sex almost everywhere (unlike transgender).

Take care of this totally free for all males's lavatory entertainment! Playing Toilet Guy resembles playing a duration management game on difficult mode:

The bathroom had precariously placed sliding wooden doors with a large sign proclaiming that “Employees must wash their hands.” Inside, there was a stainless steel sink as small as a bike helmet, a mirror with a foggy reflection, and a porcelain white toilet that had duct tape over the lever. The toilet seat was made for someone as big as a four person table, and although I put through a valiant effort, squatting on a toilet seat is not something I care to try out ever again.

their biological restroom, and women should use their biological restroom. This could also cause problems with people just saying they are transgender to get in the opposite sex restroom. It could also be risky for women with transgender men going in the women's restroom. Transgender restroom should be prohibited because it could cause confusion for young children, and also for religious purposes.

The intended purpose is to walk around Walmart for an hour stopping at15 minutes intervals while imagining I am at the brink of having a urinary accident while trying to hurry to the nearest rest room from opposite ends of the store. Starting my endeavor promptly at 6:00pm, I began shopping, at 6:15 I proceeded to the restroom as I pushed and parked my cart as fast as I could which took four minutes. Going from stall to stall because of the uncleanliness or lack of tissue, I am not certain of what my outcome would have been. The distress of trying to make it to the restroom was dreadful. Looking for short cuts and maneuvering your cart through people in the isles brought anxiety. The goal at hand was to get their fast enough to avoid embarrassment.

Some feminists and other protesters held that kind of policy would violate the privacy of women and girls. They said it was embarrassing and awkward to share the same restroom with a guy who

After I got over the feelings of fear that someone would catch me, it was actually kind of liberating. It made me feel free and adventurous. And the look on my friend's faces when I came back around to the picnic tables was priceless! That will show the snow cone shack owner to not have “employees only” bathrooms! Proceeding this event, I have relieved myself behind churches, in the woods, and under bleachers at a running track. This breaks social norms in a couple of different ways. One, because most people would not be comfortable relieving themselves in such a public place. Two, it is seen as socially unacceptable to do so. Three, it goes against the stigma that girls cannot pee outside. The sociological theory of deviance that best fits my act of deviance is probably functionalist. The reason being because of functionalist looks at deviant behavior from the standpoint that while the individual chooses to engage in deviant behavior, in some cases it is reasonable. My grandparents never really paid that much attention to me, so I did things that were not socially acceptable with no

As a result I wanted to test the reactions of men and women as I entered a gender specific restroom. I work at the Residential Dining Hall at Cal State Long Beach. In the back are the lockers and the gender specific restrooms for men and women. At the end of every shift there is normally a line for both restrooms because there is only one stall for each. I decided to wait in line for the men’s restroom. No one knew that I was waiting to go in until both restrooms were vacant and I proceeded into the men’s room. I can feel the stares of everyone as they assumed I was waiting for women’s restroom. When I first entered I heard someone yell “You are going into the wrong restroom!” and I simply replied “No I am not.” After taking a longer time than expected, when those who witnessed me exiting stared at me specifically for an explanation. When I ignored their stares, they questioned why I decided to go in there when the women’s restroom was emptied. Some assumed that I was looking for something, and one of my coworkers even proceeded to address me as sir. I did not believe this to be a big deal because both restrooms have the same exact setting.

I think it is a good idea to have people use their biological sex for which bathroom to use because it really doesn’t have to confuse them once they figure it out. I feel uncomfortable when I walk into a bathroom and if I see a person that may look as a man I am confused if I went into the correct bathroom. Children may also be confused if they have not grown up around people
