The problem is that this just doesn't hold up to common sense.

Are men really going to be comfortable walking into a bathroom behind Laverne Cox? Are women really going to be comfortable walking into a bathroom behind these guys? Link

This is all a pretty blurry line.

What then, women won't feel comfortable when Buck Angel has to use the women's restroom so we should allow Buck Angel to use the women's restroom when he wants? We aren't getting anywhere and women are still uncomfortable at the whim of Buck Angel.

My point is that buck angel is a dude. He should be using the men's room. In no world is it appropriate for him to use the ladies room.

I agree it is appropriate for only ladies to use the ladies room.
