I agree. And if, as an organization, you don't want to be subject to such government mandates, then don't make a deal with the devil by taking their money.
Actually I slightly misstated that earlier comment. It is not just receiving public funding but also contracting on government projects. I'll give you an example: Say you have a video editing business creating a television advertisement to promote a government program. It is possible for the government to require certain stipulations be abided to or you don't get the job. Regarding bathrooms, unlikely, but possible. It is sort like them requiring you have insurance and a reseller ID but to a much more extreme degree.
As for the elephant in the room: If you have a Y chromosome you're a man, damnit, and you have no business using the same restroom that my wife and daughter use!
Watch out, I'm about to blow your mind...
In Europe, some places have gender neutral restrooms! The cubicles mean that no-one sees genitalia that they don't want to see. Do you have cubicles where you live or do people shit in a hole?
It says you must go the the potty based on gender indicated on your birth certificate.
In terms of what sex a person is, I think perhaps it should be the sex indicated on their passport or driver's license. You can legally change that, such as the case of Katelin Jenner. You cannot change your birth certificate.
In the case of North Carolina you are absolutely WRONG. -

Can you change the record of sex at birth? It would no longer be a birth certificate. I know you can make corrections to vital records but is changing your sex as an adult really considered a correction to a birth certificate? Perhaps an amendment but not changing it.
I for one agree 100% with this law as it's pretty simple to figure out what gender someone is. It's called DNA and it doesn't lie people. I don't want my daughter alone in a bathroom with a male no matter what he pretends to be.
So are Apple and other companies saying that only their opinion matters? Are they better than the voters of North Carolina that wanted this? I thought the left didn't like big business and money in politics?
Actually what the legislature and governor did was overturn an LGBT anti-discrimination law passed in Charlotte. The legislature called a special session introduced the bill in the morning, passed it in the afternoon, and the governor signed the bill that night at 10PM. What they did was make it so that local governments cannot pass LGBT protections, and they can't change the minimum wage, only the state government can. So they hate gay people so much that they go out of there way to make life difficult. Oh and the minimum wage thing. I guess they love poor people. That's why they want to make sure they stay poor.
I never realized bathrooms were such dangerous places where little girls are guaranteed to be molested by any male who is able to overcome the legal protections enforced at the door.

News reports already out about males who falsely use the 'transgender loophole' found to be hanging out in women's bathrooms.
