Women attending the Kansas State Fair in Hutchinson are apparently facing extremely long lines to use the bathroom, and the state’s new anti-trans bathroom bill is reportedly to blame. The bill, S.B. 244, bans Kansans from using bathroom facilities that do not align with the sex they were born as, but is apparently having unintended consequences.
As reported by ABC Affiliate KAKE news and LGBTQ Nation, the “ripple effects” of the bill have seen notices placed outside men’s and women’s bathrooms at the fair warning attendees that “Pursuant to Kansas Senate Bill 244, this multiple-occupancy private space is designated for use by individuals of the corresponding sex. Single-occupancy/family restrooms are available for individuals who require assistance or additional privacy in select locations.”
