Debunking Bathroom Myths

Let the facts speak for themselves!

Experts on crime, like the police, state over and over again that NDOs [Non-Discrimination Ordinances allowing transgender people to use the bathroom of their gender] do not result in an increase in sexual assault or rape.
Spokesmen for police departments in Iowa, Hawaii, Colorado, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Texas have all gone on record stating that NDOs do not result in an increase in the number of reported rapes or sexual assaults in their jurisdictions. In fact, 17 states and 200 cities have such NDOs in place, and have not had an increase in sexual assault.
Similarly, experts who advocate for sexual assault victims in these states with gender identity inclusive NDOs state the same thing: NDOs which include gender identity do not result in an increase in the number of reported sexual assaults.
