They are going to institute the BSA, Bathroom Security Agency where they will have Banana Scanners. The BS will check for “bananas”, if you have one it won’t let you into ladies room, if you don’t, it won’t let you into the mens’. Also each receptacle will have DNA testers. If you fail, you will be sprayed with red dye and arrested.
The law is completely unenforceable. Furthermore it will have the opposite result from what they think they want. If a woman changes their sex to male but their birth certificate says female, they they will have to use the women’s restroom. And Vice versa.
The REAL PROBLEM (beyond the LGBT issue, is that it removed ALL rights of ALL NC citizens in terms of discrimination at the state level. There is already a case of age discrimination that the person involved is having to go to federal court rather than state court which will limit their award.
This law goes waaayyy beyond LGBT issues but the media has not picked up on that.
From what I hear (haven’t been able to verify yet), Section Two is a Koch Brothers inspired poison pill limiting taxation. If it works, look for it everywhere.
I agree that this is just a distraction (and an appeal to the evangelical/Calvinist base) and allows business as usual behind the scenes for the self-serving career politicians.
Having spent a couple decades having to provide, and clean, restrooms around the country, women’s restrooms were always dirtier than men’s, and the graffiti was often worse! Unisex restrooms cleaned things up, physically and the “literature” left behind.
Hmm, is birth certificate enough, or will they require medical folks to check your DNA before you can “dump” or even just pee???
narrowmindedYou support polyarchy, not democracy. Democracy (people rule) has rights for the majority and minority the other cannot infringe. Polyarchy (majority rule) is “the mob” the founders of this nation feared more than George III’s mercenaries.

Dear North Carolina Tourist Board, I’m thinking of driving through North Carolina. Should I bring my birth certificate?

Simple solution: require that all toilets and urinals in public bathrooms be in stalls. Then remove all the male/female icons or words from the doors.

Tolerance Test: Will you let someone other than yourself have consensual sex with your wife?——- No? Then you are intolerant!
Obviously, tolerance without limits is insanity.
You all are slowly being brainwashed to accept what is abnormal as normal.

“Women have no problem using the stalls in the men’s room at concerts and sporting events.”
They will now.
