I disagree and raise you on that. How can you define a crossdresser from a Transsexual in public? Now, I agree with Eryn, and I know you don't because you are a man in a dress (you have stated that over and over again) but really, if you were TS you would see that I am in the same boat as the blacks were 40 years ago (sorta have some background there too but we will get back on topic) or other minorities. I fully understand YOU think we can turn it off and on and needed because you can.
The use of the restroom by a trans individual should be the one that they present as (poor sentence structure). The sexual assault is a HUGE red herring in all this because sexual assaults by men on women are usually not by men PRESENTING as woman. Now if we are discussing assaults look at how many transwomen are beaten and killed BY men for no reason other than they are TRANS. Being in a male area, in a compromising state (i.e. a dress or skirt) is an open invitation to violence. If the CDs don't think they need to see this, you need to start understanding more than your 3 ft circle.
So unless you want to start wearing name tags that say "HI I'm ________ and I'm really a man " you use the restroom that fits your appearance
