Because I don't think people should be able to walk in whichever bathroom they want just because they "feel" a certain way. Bathrooms (and certain other places) are separated by gender for a reason and "feelings" don't change those reasons.

Do you realize how many transsexuals attempt to commit suicide? It's about 41%:

Yeah, and the one and only reason they all commit suicide is because they cannot freely choose the toilet. Their high suicide rate doesn't have anything at all to do with the fact that transgender is a kind of mental disorder.

 

Anyway, since I'm not from the US, I'm wondering: Toilets are far from being the only area where we still have gender segregation, so there are much more areas where transgender people will face conflicts. How did Obama solve the following issues:

- changing rooms, for example in public swimming pools or gyms. Can I go into the ladies changing room and showers in case I feel kind of female today? Where do transgenders go to in such situations, are they free to choose?

- gender segregation in sports. Can transgender people choose which gender they play for? Will the german female soccer team soon consist of 11 people who were born men, but somehow feel trapped in a man's body whenever the female soccer world cup approaches?

- women's parking spaces etc. Now available for whoever currently identifies as female?
