When reading the article ” Transgender people and bathroom access” I found out a lot of information and also making connections based off of the information I gathered from the article.
I found out that many transgender women that uses the bathroom based on what gender they prefer to be gets assaulted by people in the bathroom because of what they choose to be. I know that a lot of people don’t accept transgenders but to physically assault them because they feel like using the bathroom they feel to use is truly wrong. Another thing that I have read in the article was that they wanted transgenders to use their own private bathrooms because some people feel that are a threat and feel uncomfortable around them in bathroom.
A connection that I have with this article is when I had sociology and we were discussing transgenders having equal opportunities. A student in my class was saying that how they shouldn’t share a bathroom with us because she feels uncomfortable, and I said I don’t think that’s fair because at the end of the day they are human and they have feelings, they should share the same opportunities as us ,in my opinion.
