I think the most likely outcome here is no gender separation in bathrooms at all. A single bathroom, with a section with urinals for people with distended urination equipment.

FARMINGTON HILLS (WWJ) – A Muslim flight attendant has filed a complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEO) claiming she was suspended from her job for not serving alcohol — which is against her religious beliefs.
...
“We notified ExpressJet Airlines of its obligation under the law to reasonably accommodate Ms. Stanley’s religious beliefs,” Masri [an attorney for the Council of American Islamic Relations Michigan] said at a news conference in Farmington Hills on Tuesday. “Instead, ExpressJet close to violate Ms. Stanely’s constitutional rights, placed her on administrative leave for 12 months after which her employment may be administratively terminated.”
...
Stanley converted to Islam about a month after becoming a flight attendant for ExpressJet.
“I don’t think that I should have to choose between practicing my religion properly or earning a living,” Stanley said. “I shouldn’t have to choose between one or the other, because they’re both important.”

How about for the devil?
The devil is as real as Tinkerbell.

My thread is much more sympathetic . Lila is ill, obviously....
No sympathy for weirdos.

She seems to have a mental illness IMO. I personally think the legal system should not be involved.
This is what white privilege sounds like to the rest of us.

Lila Perry, a transgender student at Hillsboro High School, talked to reporters on Monday after a protest against her use of the girls’ bathrooms and locker room.
A transgender high school student in Missouri is facing backlash from her peers after requesting to use the girls’ bathrooms and locker room.
More than 100 students at Hillsboro High School, about an hour south of St Louis, walked out of class on Monday in protest.
“I’m hoping this dies down,” said Lila Perry, the 17-year-old who began identifying as a girl publicly in February. “I don’t want my entire senior year to be like this.”
Ms. Perry, who began feeling “more like a girl than a boy” when she was 13, said school officials gave her permission to use the girls’ facilities as the new school year began.
...
Ms. Perry previously used a unisex faculty bathroom, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported.

Former Ohio resident John Felton was pulled over by Dayton police in front of his mom’s house after he allegedly activated his turn signal less than 100 feet before making a right turn. Unable to believe an officer would stop him on such a piddling technicality, Felton asked the officer why he was really followed for several blocks and eventually pulled over.
“Because you made direct eye contact with me and held onto it when I was passing you,” the officer responded.
When Felton attempted to protest, the officer told him to end the discussion or face a citation for the not-quite-missed turn signal.
Felton is black.
Felton provided video of the stop, showing the officer’s ridiculous excuse for pulling him over, to the David Pakman Show.
...
Felton claims he didn’t even make the alleged eye contact with the cop.
“What?! I didn’t even see you,” you can hear him say in the video.
Felton believes he was stopped for being a black man with out-of-state plates—he now lives in Michigan.

they win till the losers of life run out of H20 and swarm their mansion to eat their babies for their high water content.
Haha, there's a moat with crocodiles and the crocodiles are rigged with explosives so if you catch one it goes boom.
How about people who have zero personal or familial connections to big oil or the arms trade?
Zero is such a small and ugly number.

Well frequently I think it's because these cases are often tried by public defenders who just don't bother.
And crazy bail figures means you're exposing people to the worst of the worst for having actually done very little, except not having any money to avoid being jailed.
The stories I heard in municipal court when I was there to plead no contest to a parking lot would make your head spin, I kid you not.
The number of people who got caught in a cycle of court appearances and short times behind bars all because this one time,many years ago, they missed a payment on a parking ticket due to an unexpected layoff.. is staggering. Just staggering.
I was fortunate that I could pay a few hundred USD and just walk away from it all.
I don't take that fortune for granted except when trolling all the poor losers on VJ.

i think we need to elect someone who's never made more than 70,000 in a year but still managed to keep themselves and their family in a home, fed, and clothed. no bankruptcies and no hidden nest egg.
Disagree. I like people who win at life.

The punishment should fit the crime.
Disagree. Punishment should be designed to make the future state of society more safe. Certain behaviors have strong correlations with future criminal behavior. Put those people away now before they harm a pretty white child or steal a rich guys money. For the sake of all us.

Had he not had a family and friends behind him, he would have been charged, convicted and put away for 25 years.
And if he was black, especially the scary looking kind (you know, with dreads and non-caucasian facial features), it wouldn't matter how many family and friends he had.
Can you honestly say that you have never took anything that did not belong to you without permission?
I can.

Please stand down, I'll take it from here.
I got you.
Janelle is pointing out the stark difference in which how people are viewed. Black people throughout history have rioted when an injustice has happened. Watts in the 60's and Rodney King in the 90's. And now, because of police brutality and inequality that plagues black neighborhoods. I don't condone violence and destruction of property, but as a black man whose seen, heard, and even lived just a smidgen of it, I understand why people feel the need to tear up stuff. They're tired of seeing the rules play out differently for them. I'm pretty even tempered and I still get a bit heated when I see a black person mistreated by police or even when we kill each other. Just this year, I've seen many men and women brutalized and murdered on camera, and yet the police rarely if ever get convicted of the crime.
White people who riot for sports or just because they can are called drunk kids who are letting off steam. Black people who riot due to police brutality are called thugs and animals. There shouldn't be a difference between the two, but when you interject color into the mix, the outcome demands it.
Tell me if you can hear the crying child in the background.

GROSS.
Only if Kim were at the top of that ticket, obviously.
Kanye can't be trusted with that much power.

You steal $5 today and get away with it, you steal $10 tomorrow. Tigers don't normally eat people, but once they get a taste for human blood they come back and back and back. Until it's put down.

It all comes down to the people.

Gravity doesn't fully account for the speed at which a ball falls to the ground if thrown from a plane.
I guess that means all those gravity-believers have their heads up their arses.

NASA: Living at the bottom of the sea floor less pleasant than previously believed.
New study projects larger than anticipated loss of life and property in a hypothetical submerged Miami. Insurers not believed to have adequate cash reserves to cover insured losses.

Comparing Trump's racist comments to the Final Solution seems a bit of stretch even for this circle jerk.

Venkman,
What would you know about being rich? You're a nobody. You know what? I'll sue you. Then you'll be somebody. How does $500 million sound? Sounds good to me.
