If you don't understand, not to worry! There are lots of explanations and scientific studies that will explain it for you, and they even have wonderful charts in case the words are too difficult.
Google away!
I believe we're talking about two different things here. You're addressing the NC law. I'm talking about, if Loretta Lynch and Barrack have their way, to get laws passed that allows transgenders and others to use bathrooms of the sex they say they identify with, there'll be nothing to restrain voyeurs or sexual predators from using the public restrooms they want. You say it's happening now and that the NC law won't change anything.
No, I'm not. Your reading comprehension skills are on display here. I am, and everyone else is saying it's not happening now, hence there is no need for the laws in the first place. Transgender people have been using bathrooms long before you started worrying your little head about it. The entire point is that these laws do absolutely nothing. I am saying that your fear that laws that say transgender people can use the restroom corresponding to their gender identity encourage predators cannot be assuaged by a law that mandates which bathroom a person uses, because the exact same argument can be used for both laws. Those arguments are bullshit. Sexual predators are not laying around waiting for laws to change to benefit them. You've been fearmongered into a frenzy in an election year, and it's frankly sad that you're that naive.

As things stand now, do you actually think that some mother isn't going to go to an establishment's management and tell them that there's a man leering in the women's bathroom and that the predator or voyeur won't be escorted out by security? Your leftist ideology is blind and naïve. Your thinking's fucked up.
If there's someone leering in any fucking bathroom, everyone should speak up whether that person is cisgender, transgender, whatever. You have, once again, shown your abhorrent bigotry in equating transgenderism with perversion and leering in a bathroom, as if that is the sole reason a trans person wants to be treated with dignity.

Oops. That old reading comprehension again. First of all, that article does not say what you think it does. That's embarrassing, quoting an article from which you read the headline. Second of all, even if it said what you thought it said, if your example of a scientific study from Google is an op-ed from SocialInQueery---then you are sorely mistaken as to what a scientific study even is. More embarrassing. Sorry bud, thems the brakes.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
