I'm an old dude. So I can remember in the late seventies and eighties when the left was pushing for the Equal Rights Amendment, which simply said:The conservative bathroom obsession is weird
ARTICLE —
"Section 1. Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.
"Sec. 2. The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.
"Sec. 3. This amendment shall take effect two years after the date of ratification."
The right warned that it could lead to men being allowed in the women's bathroom and on women's sports teams on the grounds that it would be denying equality under the law based on sex. In those days, lefties also said conservatives were weird to talk about the bathroom because of course this would never - ever - happen. Now cons are weird because they don't realize that even without the ERA, it can, should and will happen.
