Renae, I asked you (politely), if resources were not a problem and they were built, would you use a third rest room for the 'other gendered' and leave the men and women's restrooms to them? I'd appreciate a (polite) reply if that's possible.
I do apologize if I missed it, lots of replies!
Would I use an "other gendered" No. We as society are well passed the "White Fountains, Colored" fountains level ostracizing and I refuse to be a party to that sort of thing. Sorry.
Now, WHAT I AM in favor of, is, you know how if you have a service dog you have to carry proof? I would have no problem at all carrying a card proving I'm TG. If someone has an issue with me in the restroom, a Big If, but if they did, I could produce this card to them, to the police to whomever. Showing I am:
Under a therapist's care
Undergoing HRT
Am not a threat, I'm really a transwoman.
I can ditch the card after GRS.
This let's people like myself have a little peace of mind, if a problem arises we have an ace in the hole to avoid unpleasantness.
You get peace of mind knowing that everyone in that restroom, is just there to do their business.
It helps deter the bad actors in society, like a CHL for gun owners. You need to do the class to carry... I need the proper care to use the ladies room.
It's a trust and verify situation for all parties.
