Barbara T. Cain: Confusing gender

It is crazy to say that House Bill 2 protects women and children. It requires men in ties and jackets to use the women’s restroom because they were born female, and women in heels to use the men’s restroom because once upon a time they were little boys. Who, then, is to tell any man that he is in the wrong restroom? We might as well make all restrooms unisex, which is perhaps the best solution anyway.
