    Europe and UK people have been so busy pointing and laughing at the US that they don’t see their own governments quietly following suit.

      Its not quiet. Im pretty sure its illegal to go to the bathroom if your trans in the UK too but you’d never hear that from them so long as Trumps around for a good chuckle.

        Unfortunately, that’s because a majority of British people are casually transphobic, so see the recent Supreme Court ruling as common sense rather than something bad. It’s pretty common for brits to accept that trans people are real, and assume that means they can’t be transphobes, despite advocating for treating everyone as their AGAB in the eyes of the law and sport and every other way that isn’t whether they can wear a dress.
