Virginia Republican wants to 'protect' children by mandating their genitals are inspected in school Joan McCarter
No, that is not a made-up story. Virginia Del. Mark Cole, a Republican of course, is so wound up about whether a transgender person might use a public restroom that he's introduced legislation that would require schoolchildren's genitals be inspected before they're allowed to go to the bathroom. Really.
The legislation, which would prohibit transgender students from using the bathroom matching their gender, is being sponsored by Republican Del. Mark Cole. House Bill 663 defines "anatomical sex" as "the physical condition of being male or female, which is determined by a person's anatomy."In practice, as civil rights advocate Tim Peacock says, that means "adults would be required to inspect children's genitals before they use the bathroom." Which in pretty much every state would be against the law. Because grown up people are not supposed to be looking at the private parts of children who are not their own. As Kagro, who alerted us to this story on "Kagro in the Morning," says, maybe somebody should be looking into Mr. Cole's browser history.
"Local school boards shall develop and implement policies that require every school restroom, locker room, or shower room that is designated for use by a specific gender to solely be used by individuals whose anatomical sex matches such gender designation," the measure states.
So has the Republican party jumped the shark yet? Is this the point—legislated sexual assault on schoolchildren—where people everywhere realize these guys are stark raving bonkers?
