Here we go again with the whole "blinking eyes" I don't understand what the big deal is ignorance about such a situation.... Krististeph, I am not singling you out here, or putting you down. But if WE are looking at this issue from the perspective that you are stating in your OP, which is valid reality, than we are missing the entire point about why these bathroom issue are happening.

It has NOTHING to do with privacy, or anything to do with fear of sexual predators. Oh, those who are coming up with these excuses to write or pass these laws are saying this, but that is not really the intention. Now, there may be a few, and I am saying this not in actual numbers but in relation to hundreds of millions of people who will believe these things. Those who are writing and passing laws are doing so to stoke the fears of the few, and because they are losing ground in their holier than thou battles of gender and sexuality, are just lashing out however they can. Lose the battle in courts over gay marriage and they try to strike back by not issuing marriage licenses, or serving gay couples or whatever. TG anti discrimination laws come up and suddenly it is the anti anti discrimination bathroom laws. Not ever really for any reasons of protection. It is to rile those who already hate us. It is to harass us, embarrass us, and if they succeed in getting us have to legally use the men's room to be embarrassed enough by using the men's room and then we get into a physical altercation, we had it coming for dressing that way...

We know, they know, women have always known that TG women, CDers mtf have always used the women's room. And until now, nobody ever gave a s--t. Most don't now. Just enough do, and rile those people up and make it an issue. All the while most of the rest of the world is laughing at us for it.
