Recently reported on NPR, the issue of transgender bathrooms keeps popping up. For many reasons, good and bad on both sides of those for or against who uses what bathroom.

When I think of the issue, I can’t get past the feeling that it doesn’t matter. When I have to go to the bathroom, I have to go. I’ve gone to the bathroom in both men women designated stalls. I’ve gone to the bathroom in the one and only hut with a squat toilet. I’ve gone to the bathroom behind trees. I pray to take a stand for decisions that express common sense, respect, and safety. I have a feeling each situation and place will require their own unique decisions. There is no one-size-fits-all decision for humanity, and we have the ability to progress, to change rules when appropriate.

Quoting from science & religion to God:

“The advancement of Truth has nothing to do with popularity. The object is to work in the interest of humanity, not work in private interests or sect. No matter what field you work in, Truth should stimulate labor and progress.”
