Congresswoman McBride deserves dignity and respect and Republicans are not giving it.
I really wanted to get my thoughts out on this issue.

I did however observe on social media this past week Congresswoman Nancy Mace's crusade against freshman Congresswoman Sarah McBride, who is the first openly trans person elected to Congress in American history. For anyone who hasn't been paying attention, in response to McBride arriving in D.C., Mace introduced legislation specifically to force transgender people in the House of Representatives to use the bathroom that corresponds with their biological sex. Mace then embarked on a national press tour and social media blitz, tweeting hundreds of times about it over just a few days and even showing up to the Capitol in costume. All of this happened reportedly before Mace even bothered to have a conversation about the subject with McBride, who told CBS that she had never planned on using the multi-stall women's restroom at the Capitol because she thought it would be politicized.
Mace went on to say that McBride was a threat to her and that "any man who wants to force his junk into the bathroom stall next to me or in a dressing room watching me, that is an assault on women." Among a slew of other posts, Mace quote tweeted a picture of McBride and said "how fitting" it was that "International Men's Day is today." Speaker Mike Johnson ultimately agreed to adopt the policy.
I have no idea if McBride really ever planned to use the multi-stall restroom. If that was the case, he should have just said that in the beginning and ended the whole ordeal. I suspect he didn't because he was basking in the head pats from his side as he faced down big bad Nancy Mace. I have a wholly different take than Meghan. Maybe it is because Meghan's children aren't school age and she has not dealt with a teacher who tried to indoctrinate her child. Perhaps she isn't aware people across the United States had to fight to get books removed from libraries that taught children things like how boys can perform sexual acts upon one another. I suspect if she was, she would be as radicalized as me.
I do not understand why women have to throw out their own dignity and respect to accommodate a trans-woman in the bathroom or is sports. You can’t give to somebody without taking from another, and that realization has been lost by so many in modern society. https://t.co/eU8b6uWnlw

When this whole 'movement' started, many Americans took the side of 'they are consenting adults and it is not my problem'. If men wanted to chop off their plumbing and take hormones, go for it. They were adults and their life wasn't effecting mine, so why should I care? That's basically the American way. We believe people should be free to be who they are as long as that freedom doesn't encroach upon the freedom of others. That's never enough for Leftists, though. They took that to mean they could indoctrinate school kids, take over the restrooms and locker rooms of young girls and remove kids from their parents if said parent did not consent to a sex change. To me, that's very undignified behavior.
Women are not obligated to cater to the feelings of men, especially when that involves ceding their safety and privacy. https://t.co/PFe25W9zG3

There’s NOTHING dignified or respectable about a man demanding access to women’s private spaces.

That we are even having a conversation about this is proof of how we’ve devolved socially and intellectually in this country. https://t.co/VlTunR8hT1
He should respect and protect the dignity of real women by not entering their private spaces. https://t.co/XPnjzjRsmB

In general, it's the right thing to be kind to everyone. Being kind does not mean allowing Leftists to trample the rules of society. Women deserve their own private spaces. That includes the restrooms in Congress just as much as it applies to the bathrooms in your local elementary school. McBride is welcome to dress as he pleases and he can change his name because the laws allows it. The rest of us aren't required to participate in his delusion.
