"Are you a woman!"

[PaulaQ]

BUT... let's pretend this was a thing that was real. By the time the pee police show up, everyone is long gone. It's simply impractical. Unisex restrooms will happen long before "Pee IDs."

Historically this hasn't been true. Everybody in the trans community I knew in Oklahoma had been harassed by law enforcement in a bathroom. Here's an example - you stop at a truck stop bathroom. State trooper sees you walk in, and goes in after you to check your ID. Sometimes the police stop in for a bathroom break.

The bigger issue is people taking the law into their hands.

Honestly, anyone with a driver's license with the correct photo and gender marker would get a pass from a LEO - no probable cause to take them in, ticket them, etc. What they are more likely to try instead of a pee ID is to make gender marker / ID changes more difficult in some states.

Honestly any kind of documentation check for restroom access is a big loss for us all.

You are the loud, overrepresented minority but the majority still rules, it's not their problem, it's yours.

I know trans kids who aren't able to use the restroom all day in school because the only gender neutral restroom is so far from their classes that they don't have time to use it.

I have a friend who drives a truck. She's out 12-13 hours at a stretch, several days in a row. Not everyplace she stops has a gender neutral bathroom. What's she supposed to do?

Not every place I go has a gender neutral bathroom. Sometimes I'm out all day, and not all of us have your bladder capacity.

How is it selfish to want a safe place to pee? Do I look like I should be using the men's restroom?

I think it is pretty selfish for cisgender people to put their discomfort and bigotry ahead of our ability to have a tiny modicum of public dignity.
