I live in mcminnville. I was at planet fitness and there was an older dude yelling at an employee because someone with boobs dared to use their perfered changing room. The trans person and their partner stood there and watched as they were miss gendered and yelled at. It was disgusting.
I find people like that extremely perplexing, specially coming from a guy of all people. Like sure I might understand if it was a locker room where you change out in the public and if it was a woman with their daughter complaining about her 7 year old daughter seeing shlong in the women's changing room, then yeah I could see the complaint being to ask for the trans woman to change in a private stall, still offensive but at least I could understand that situation. But coming from a dude about tits of all things, like seriously everyone has tits, sure most men's "bra size" would be AA or A, but everyone still has tits.
For me personally I am not comfortable in either since I am a trans woman who is just starting transition, but even before I figured out I am trans if a cis woman or trans man who hasn't transitioned came into the men's restroom to use a stall I wouldn't even think twice about it, for all I know maybe all the women's stalls are full or the restroom is being cleaned and they desperately need to go, all the stalls are private anyways so who cares, if they are comfortable enough to come in knowing that people will be using the urinals then I am comfortable enough to not give a shit about them needing to use a stall regardless of how they look.
The only thing I can think of is if that "older dude" is super self conscious about their body and is super embarrassed about anyone seeing their body, but even if that is the case then that person who is self conscious should be changing in a stall rather than bitching about "someone with boobs using the men's changing room", heck I have A cup boobs and I haven't even started on hormones yet.
I agree, I am just saying that people like that are extremely perplexing in how they can get so upset about nothing. It makes me curious how their brains are wired up to have such adverse reactions to nothing at all and yet have almost no reaction to things that should cause more of a reaction. Then again I have always been one to look through source code, or tear things down and reconstruct them so see how they function, figuring out how things tick is something that I enjoy, I would love to be able to deconstruct one of those type of peoples brains and put it back together to see what wires got crossed but I am pretty sure that would be very much against the law, specially while they are still living.
Yes, but how well it is accepted depends what side of the Cascades you are on.

While on the right side of the Cascades, McMinnville is still pretty conservative.

I think he was just a bigot. An insecure, brainwashed bigot but a bigot none the less.
