It should be your choice what bathroom you use. Even if you “look like a man” but are a woman, you should be able to use the women’s bathroom without being attacked. Same goes for men who “look like women”, in their words. Also, if a man “looks like a woman” or looks feminine but says his pronouns are he/him and that he’s a man, his pronouns are he/him and he’s a man.

I feel like I’m preaching to the choir here, but I can’t STAND IT. I’m a cis lesbian for crying out loud but at least I’m not like Arielle Scarcella or whatever the hell her name is.

    It’s a problem because there are perverts in sheep’s clothing that hide under identity/gender and will go to other bathrooms as an excuse to perv on the opposite gender.

    Would you feel comfortable if you were a woman and some creep of a guy with feminine-like features but still ultimately a guy, came in to the women’s bathroom just to try and sneak peek for nudes?

    I mean, if someone does that, it says a lot about someone. So not only are they a perv, but are they also into the idea of someone shitting and pissing? Technically I say you are, if you do this.

      You know what, I get your point with some of these people. I don’t think someone should be beaten up, though, for wanting to use the restroom of the gender they identify as instead of the one assigned to them at birth.
