Summary
Rep. Nancy Mace, once supportive of LGBTQ rights, has shifted toward anti-transgender rhetoric, including sponsoring a Capitol bathroom ban targeting transgender women, such as Rep.-elect Sarah McBride.
Mace has cited personal safety concerns and her experience as a rape survivor to justify the ban, which critics argue is rooted in discrimination.
Protesters against the legislation led Mace to use a slur in response, sparking further controversy.
Previously, Mace supported LGBTQ rights and socially transitioning minors, but her recent actions reflect a sharp pivot amidst rising anti-LGBTQ sentiment in politics.
I also went through that and will never forget the sermon where the minister projected a medical diagram of a rectum and then repeatedly explained how God designed it as an exit only and anal sex will send you to hell. He wouldnt stop talking about it and kept making gestures. I was long over the BS by that point so I sat there awkwardly trying not to laugh through the whole thing.
