Utah’s Republican-controlled House voted Friday to pass a sweeping proposal to keep transgender people out of restrooms and locker rooms that match their gender identity in taxpayer-funded buildings, sending the measure to the state’s majority GOP Senate for consideration just three days after the start of the session.
House Bill 257 aims to prohibit individuals from using gender-designated facilities that differ from their sex assigned at birth in government buildings, correctional facilities and domestic violence shelters unless they have undergone a transition-related surgery and legally amended the sex on their birth certificate.
The proposal would require new government buildings to include single-occupant restrooms and changing rooms while existing ones must be studied to assess “the feasibility of retrofitting or remodeling” facilities to improve privacy.
…
The bill, if passed, would make Utah the third state to adopt explicit restrictions on transgender bathroom use in buildings other than schools. A Florida law passed last year prevents transgender people from using facilities consistent with their gender identity in all government-owned buildings, and a North Dakota law restricts bathroom use in correctional facilities.
A long time ago I was asked by a friend my opinion of transgender people using their restroom that corresponds to their true gender (the one that does not correspond to their birth sex). My answer was this:
I don’t give a fuck who you are, I don’t wanna shit next to you. All bathrooms should be individual, floor to ceiling walls, so I can shit in peace.
The real ban should be on group shitting.
Like this?
Yeah but that’s not it. That’s “feasibility” that won’t ever be feasible. Mixed with hate. Also, it needs to be more than government building, because what does that solve? Not much.
Let’s pass a law saying all publicly accessible bathrooms must be retrofitted or remodeled and until then, you can’t ban transgender people.

A man who identified himself as man.
That’s a man, so technically that’s not the right restroom anyway and would not happen under normal circumstances.
So, I’m going to assume you mean a transgender woman, in a woman’s restroom.
No I wouldn’t have a problem. Why would I? Pooping is pooping. Perhaps add more detail to the scenario and I can give you a better answer.
