I’m a middle school teacher and generally very permissive with my students when it comes to using the bathroom. That being said, bathroom breaks must be managed. Students routinely go into the the bathrooms to fight, smoke weed, vape, have sex, and other nefarious activities.

Well, not really. Oklahoma is a deeply red state, but it is more liberal in areas like Oklahoma City, Tulsa, and the university towns. I’ve always gotten the impression that people living in the panhandle were a different breed of conservative psycho though.

Oklahoman here! I’ve personally haven’t spent much time in this part of the state. It’s was historically referred to as “No Man’s Land” if that gives you any idea. The panhandle has a much more arid, high plains type climate than other parts of the state. I believe there are literal sand dunes out that way. Oklahoma’s highest point, Black Mesa, is in the panhandle. Im told Black Mesa is a great camping spot for star-gazing, but I’ve never been. As far as I’m aware it’s mostly right-wing but jobs living in that area. I seem to recall a few local news stories about people in that part of the state making a big stink about trans kids trying to use the bathroom and so forth.
