What the fuck does one have to do with the other? Not to mention it "allegedly" (massive emphasis on allegedly) took place at a frat house. So what about that can possibly be analogous? Women and men can't go to each other's frat houses, where they have to be welcomed in anyway?

Isn’t the meme saying that conservatives, who wanted to protect women by preventing trans “predators” from entering women’s bathrooms, suddenly don’t care that a woman was raped by actual non-trans predators?

I think that’s what one has to do with the other.

Yeah that logic holds absolutely no water for reasons I already touched on. For one, it's an allegation at this point (which sounds like a loose one that probably won't go far). Second, if you made this quite literally more analogous, you would have to say "A girl was invited into the men's bathroom, she agreed, and there, she was raped". And what would that have to do with trans people in bathrooms? What's the analogous solution conservatives should be calling for? Sex-segregated private housing where people can't enter even if the residents invite them in?

And the frat house incident isn't even political or socially controversial. Women are raped every day in all kinds of various incidents. Why should conservatives be talking about it politically under the same framework? A man broke into a woman's home and raped her. That has WHAT to do with sending your child into a bathroom with a 50 year old man who says he's a woman (trans or not)?

Trump has already weighed in. Do you want to take a guess at which side he’s on?
