I simply see too much room for abuse there. Any pervs could easily claim they're trans just so they can get into the opposite restroom to try and get a peek, or worse. 

Is that too hard for you guys to understand?

I would never feel safe with my daugher going to a bathroom where any men could enter just for claiming that he's transexual. And if he's not? Will be a supervisor in every bathroom to guarantee who is trans and who is not? Wouldn't that be more embarassment to trans people?

Also, that's not a fucking demonstration of hate over transexuals, that's not something to make them feel bad, it's just a simple fucking bathroom. If you have a dick, you go to men's bathroom. If you don't have, then you can go to the ladies room. SImples as that. It should be that easy. Sincerely, I get disappointed everytime I see an irrelevant question like that turning into something big. IT'S JUST A BATHROOM.

It's good to see one or two people have an understanding of the problem.

 

Personally, I don't really have a problem with true trans people using the washroom of the gender they have transed to.  The problem is in the wording, saying a person can use whatever washroom they "feel" is appropriate.   Especially in schools with potentially vulnerable children.

 

I went to a large school and there were very few people who were trans then, or later in life. There were, however, quite a few sexually deviant boys who would happily say they feel like a female to gain access to the female washroom.  Saying you "feel" like a different gender shouldn't be enough.  You should have to be actually living as your new gender.

 

And obviously private washrooms are the best option for everyone, but barring that female washrooms should always be a place that is secure from weirdo males.
