Excerpts from "What the Bathroom Wars are Really All
About" Posted by John Horvat II
The so-called bathroom wars have nothing to do with
bathrooms but all about war. The push to allow a person to use the bathroom of
his or her choice is merely the latest phase of the sexual revolution. It
is part of a relentless war to bring about an irrational equality that now
seeks to break down the final public barriers that make the sexes
different.
Let's face it. Once it is held that anyone
can use the bathroom that he or she feels comfortable with, the words "men" and
"women" on the door is meaningless since anyone can enter. According to the
strange logic of the bathroom warriors either you build equal bathrooms for
every "gender" that appears on the scene - there are some 60 of them out there -
or you integrate them all into one (or two) bathrooms, everyone can use
indiscriminately. Obvious, the latter is the only economically viable
solution.
Thus, this is more than just making people feel
comfortable, it the beginning of the end of sex-segregated bathrooms, locker
rooms or private places. It is a true cultural shift that turns one's biological
sex from a social and public reality to a mere private opinion, whim or
fantasy.
The so-called bathroom wars are not only about
sexual predators, as many maintain. There definitely be those who use the new
bathroom rules to open doors to prey upon their victims. However, it is all
about taking away the vestiges of modesty, decency and a sense of shame that
remain in society. This strong layer of protection for both men and women in
their private moments is removed.
The virtue of modesty is part of a moral
framework that serves as a reasonable restraint on the less violent human
passions. Modesty governs exterior actions so that they might conform to the
demands of decency, propriety and decorousness that came from human nature and
social mores. Attire, manner of speech, the relationship between the sexes all
enter into this framework to keep society balanced and virtuous. When natural
decency and modesty are not respected, the dignity of human nature is easily
degraded to brutish levels.
Thus, it is no surprise in today's hyper-sexualized
and violent world that there would be those who call for throwing off all
restraints and taboos. They would target modesty since it is that natural and
delicate sense of restraint to all acts that give rise to shame. All that
safeguards a much-needed chastity must be destroyed.
Thus, contrary to the propaganda, this is not
forcing people to be uncomfortable. There never has been, nor will there the
police checking identities or self-identities at every bathroom door. This is
all about honoring and preserving those time-tested rules that enable society to
function and that help individuals maintain their personal
dignity.
Finally, the so-called bathroom wars have nothing to
do with reality. It has everything to do with empowering the fantasies of
those who wish to escape the restraint of identity and reason.
...
Today society as a whole is being asked to pander to and
be complicit with the unnatural fantasies of a few.... It is a new phase of the
Culture War. Those who thought the war was over with their surrender to same-sex
marriage will come to see that it is only the beginning.
This new phase is an extension and radicalization of
what came before. The difference is that old phase destroyed external
structures - tradition, custom, or community - that hindered self-fulfillment
and pleasure. The new phase seeks to destroy those internal structures - reason,
identity, and the sense of being - that impede the "right" to instant
gratification.
The old phase of the Culture War still worked
inside the social structures that it destroyed and thus offered more
opportunities for people to resist. The new phase assaults the very core of
being and identity. It is more tyrannical and allows for little opposition.
Anyone who disagrees is immediately and furiously attacked - individuals,
businesses and even whole states. If there is a return to order, then society
must recognize this new development for what it is. {This is no frivolous
bathroom war but a Culture War so total that it extends even to the use of the
bathroom.}
