    Is it really “completely fucking retarded”? The person still has double x chromosomes and possibly an uterus. So medically a woman despite probable hormone therapy which plays a factor in healthcare. A public setting is different from a medical one, therefore a person shall be treated as they appear through a layman’s eye.

      Far from all TS people look like the gender they identify as. So that definitely doesn’t work.

      Yes it is. People should be treated according to their medical needs, and nothing else. Why should a man with a broken foot be forced into a women-only ward? This will make everyone involved extremely uncomfortable. It’s a women-only ward for a reason.
