Yes, it is a lot like the Satanic Panic of the 80s. People actually went to prison over this mania back then! It was ridiculous then and still is! Some people are so mentally inert they can just be stampeded about like brainless herbivores on just about any topic, except the pens that actually matter.

We’ve all been using gender neutral bathrooms our whole lives. At work, at home, at school. You go in, lock the door, and the next person has to knock to know if it’s occupied. We have one on each floor at my job for the employees. The public ones are gendered. Nobody cares or monitors whose going into the bathrooms becasue we’re busy doing actual work.
