Protect against Title IX and submit a comment by September 12, 2022.

The US Department of Education released their proposed changes to Title IX regulations that would dramatically change the future for women and girls in federally funded activities and programs. There are many negative impacts that will harm girls, women, and families.

A government portal has been set up for you to make a comment submission.  It is very straight-forward and easy to do.  In addition, this governmental body is required to read every submission, large and small – before they can finalize the new “Rule.”  So rest assured, your input will be read and considered.

TAKE A STAND TODAY

Here’s the questions we asked readers:     

“Would you use a dressing room that was open to transgender individuals?”

Here’s how readers responded:

  1 Percent                    Yes” (answer by female)

63 Percent                   “No” (answer by female)                                          

  1 Percent                   “Yes” (answer by male)          

35 Percent                   “No” (answer by male)

 

This question is a result of the story about a Macy’s Department store employee who was fired for refusing to let a transgender woman use a women’s dressing room.  The young woman stated that she was fired for attempting to protect female customers and for standing by her religious convictions.  We think that the strongest argument is one of protection for customers.

Thus, we thought we’d ask how many of our readers would feel comfortable they’d feel with the situation.  You can see from the above results that very few would welcome having someone of the opposite sex in their dressing rooms.  Can’t say as we’re surprised.

In an update to this story, a second Macy’s employee has spoken out about the problems she has encountered with men in women’s changing rooms.  Seems this is an ongoing problem at the large department store.
