Trans people are just people
 

This petition is not about locker rooms. The Board of Health has no business labeling groups of people harmful based on who they are. Trans people are simply trying to live their lives in safety and without harassment.

I have friends who are trans, and the amount of pain they have gone through to establish their true identity is massive. Please don't place limitations on the trans community. Today it is locker rooms and tomorrow it could be job or leasing discrimination. Please don't go down this slippery slope.
