I hate that men's bathrooms will usually consist of 2 urinals and 1 stall... there's ALWAYS someone in the stall when I need to pee. So being trans requires you to have an epic skill of holding in your pee whether it's legal or illegal to use... doesn't matter cause I can't go anyway.

#IllGoWithYou is an ally movement in response to #WeJustNeedToPee, offering to be a "bathroom buddy" for transgender people and others who fear harassment in restrooms.
#IllGoWithYou allies go into bathrooms and other spaces with transgender people who may be afraid or concerned about their safety. An #IllGoWithYou ally offers support, buffering, and nonviolent assistance when asked.
On their web site you can take a pledge and/or order a button like the ones below.
The Fort Peck Indian tribe has adopted a transgender bathroom policy that mirrors the controversial bill recently opposed by President Obama in North Carolina.
We are saddened to learn that yesterday the Fort Peck Indian Tribe has adopted a discriminatory bathroom policy that mirrors policies in place in North Carolina!
These bathroom bills benefit no one and harm individuals of gender diversity. Help us send a clear message that bills and policies such as this are in fact discriminatory and extremely harmful.
Councilman Ed Bauer, who seconded the initial motion, was recorded in the meeting minutes as saying, “What people do in their bedrooms is their business. How public bathrooms are used is (my) business.”
We want to send a clear message that policing bathrooms is no one’s place or business. Some see these policies as a means of “protecting” women and young girls from being assaulted in public restrooms, but may we remind you that such actions are ALREADY ILLEGAL... these bills don’t add any further level of protection for women and young children, but what they do is DISCRIMINATE!
Call this out for what it is... CLEAR DISCRIMINATION! Help us send a clear message to Montana that this IS DISCRIMINATION and that Montana shouldn’t tolerate discrimination!
