Didn't think Stacey Dash's views could get any more offensive? It seemed impossible. But between her unwillingness to acknowledge racism and climate change and her declaration that Donald Trump is "street," she always seems to find a way to surprise us. The latest installment in her series of culturally insensitive comments: She believes trans people should just pee outside if they have to, because it's not her problem if they can't find a bathroom. 

"OK, then go in the bushes," she said in an interview with ET regarding the anti-trans bathroom bill passed in North Carolina. "I don't know what to tell you, but I'm not gonna put my child's life at risk because you want to change a law. So that you can be comfortable with your beliefs—which means I have to change my beliefs and my rights? No."

There's never been an assault reported by a trans person in a bathroom.

She also took the opportunity to throw shade at feminism. "Stop trying to be men," Dash said. "Let's be women. And let's let men be men. Let's empower them to be men, because I feel like they're falling away."

If you haven't gotten enough of the actress and talk show host's commentary, her book There Goes My Social Life comes out June 6.
