    Oh, well that would be because putting tampons in the boys bathroom is incredibly moronic and since we don’t want to do retarded things, the OP thinks taking it down is smart.

    You can be inclusive and not do stupid things. Requiring people to accept stupid actions however will predictably result in backlash. If you really support all parties involved being smart, you should accept this, or alternatively convince us why tampons in a boys bathroom is genius

    We don't try to don't teach homicidal maniacs that their feelings are normal why should we teach any other crazy and mixed up feelings are normal? Why is the left so hell bent on normalizing crazy?

    I'll try to unwind your confusion.
    I think there are two genders, with a very small percentage of mixtures. I also think, theoretically, it is better to have boys in boys bathrooms and girls in girls bathrooms.
    But, just because someone doesn't fit the way I think doesn't mean I have the option of harming them in any way. One doesn't have to agree with everything, they just have to be gracious enough to allow others to be themselves, whatever that means to them.
    That is why these drag queens and LBGTQ+ people are sometimes being "outrageous", because they have had to hide themselves from others in fear of the way they are treated.
    And your comments at the end of your post not only exemplify that, it seems to encourage that we should teach our children to do the same.
    Live and let live. Simple message.

    Why not put urinals in the girls bathroom for girls who identify as boys. That way they can play pretend without disrupting others. Come to think of it, it could also serve boys pretending to be girls.

    The installation was a requirement of law. So we have a group of students who don't like a law and have destroyed property to protest it. Or, they just wanted to destroy something. Either way, apparently the destruction of property in protest is acceptable by the same people who continue to rail against the destruction of property during other protests. Further, the destruction is roundly supported by those who saw nothing wrong with the destruction of property on 1/6.

    Because they know it's crazy. They know they're lying and they're doing it deliberately, because the lie is the point.

    One of the closing scenes in Orwell's 1984 features the protagonist Winston Smith, who is finally betrayed and is now being tortured by the Ministry of Truth. Their objective is to get Winston to proclaim as truth something he knows is not. The reader (or at least this reader, when I first came across it as an adolescent) is forced to ask why. Why the the time, effort & angst? Why not just kill him and be done with it? Then it hit me: because the lie is the point. The true measure of absolute power isn't life or death. It's controlling what people think. The answer to your question couldn't be simpler: power and control. They're going to groom your kids to believe whatever they're told, and punished for challenging the narrative. The boy who raped two girls in Loudoun County is a girl, because he says so and they agree.

    What "same people"? High school boys? I didn't realize there was an epidemic of high school boys destroying property and saying others should not destroy property, only them.
    I also don't see how destroying something in a bathroom equates to a PROTEST.
    It sounds to me (and please do correct me if I'm wrong) like you are trying to compare destroying a bathroom paper product dispenser to a violent, disgusting, BLM RIOT where buildings are burned and people are curb stomped (and get away with it)
    Is that what you are trying to do here or did I assume incorrectly?
    Please, by all means, EXPLAIN

    The property they destroyed didn't belong to the confused individual who wanted to use that restroom, it belonged to the school district. Boys aren't girls and girls aren't boys and normal isn't wrong. Those are acceptable facts.

    lol what’s funny is how confused you are. This isn’t for trans women, it’s for trans men. A man pretending to be a woman doesn’t need tampons, but a woman pretending to be a man, does.

    Do you want someone living as, and who looks like a boy, in the ladies room?

    You should read what’s before the stuff you highlighted red. Might help your confusion, but I doubt it

    It sounds like they are failing then. If they are trying to pretend to be men then they failed with the tampon part. Men don't use them, except when they hit manopause of course.

    For YOU those are acceptable facts, as long as the finger isn't pointed at you, right? Defining "normal" is an impossibility, but even if we try, we all have something a little out of the norm from most others.
    I don't think you're getting what I'm saying. One doesn't have to agree with everything, but what we need to do is respect the differences. Respecting something isn't necessarily agreeing with it.
    So, in 3rd grade where reading glasses are not "normal" because most 3rd graders don't need them, is it ok to make fun of the one that has to, just because they aren't normal?
    And who is going to be 'normal' police? Who decides who's normal and who isn't? Since Trump supporters are way less than 40% of the population, can they be considered 'abnormal', and treating them poorly is acceptable?
    Just because you don't understand something doesn't make it wrong, or justify one's wrath.
    And it doesn't matter who owned the property, I taught my kids that if it isn't theirs, it isn't theirs to tear up.

    Precisely. They will cheerfully destroy the country if they can't dictate what is true to everyone.

    If there is a student that is female that looks like a boy, and everyone thinks they are a boy, it would cause a lot more turmoil and attention if that person uses the girl's bathroom, and usually they want to avoid turmoil and attention.
    And it's been happening for a long time, we just don't know about it because of what I just stated.

    I love the comparison of a tampon machine to billions of destroyed property. Exactly the same thing.

    Actually what would be better is for school officials and the so-called adults in the room to stop engaging in this stupid Insanity where we pretend that girls can be boys and vice versa.

    You don't put a stop to stupid irrational and insane behavior by participating in the delusion and facilitating it.

    Common Sense suggest that people should stop encouraging children to pretend that they're the opposite sex.

    But that would make far too much sense and we can't have that.

    It's odd that you think legislature spend money on jollying along the mentally ill when it is clear by now that it doesn't work well if at all.
