KEN 56.. I know what you mean about that bathroom comment.
Now what I'm about to post is both a FACT and a JOKE.. But there are, as you said, States I can't go to because of those dang bathroom laws.
Here is why:
Like President Obama's mother (NOTE I only mention him as a historical fact, not an opinion.. at least not yet and the opinion is "And he was POTUS" when I get to it). My mother divorced, after my birth, and re-married, Her new husband adopted my brother and I.
Well, In some states, I have to show that my Birth Certificate says "MALE" to use the men's room..
It took Obama 3 years to get a copy of HIS birth certificate AND HE WAS POTUS
Imagine how long it will take me.... I don't think my diabetic bladder can hold it that long.
That said.. I feel sorry for the poor security guard to tries to stop me cause he's not seen my birth certificate...
