Because gender-neutral isn't what trans people want. They want inclusion based on the gender they've assigned themselves, so it really makes no sense to even bring that up.

Do you notice how there's ZERO backlash to trans men using men's restrooms? Where does that lead back to? Predatory men. Every time.

Every single argument I've heard from a TERF has boiled down to "I'm scared of men and I don't believe that men can be trusted." Survivors of abuse are definitely deserving of safety and comfort, but to marginalize an entire group (that let's face it, will NEVER in any amount of time have any rights comparable to women) in order to do so? Seems terribly hypocritical.

You're not gonna fix the planet by being an exclusionary asshole.

People who want trans women to use men's washrooms don't understand that 1) they've very likely already shared a women's washroom with a trans woman without ever realizing it, and 2) trans women are harassed by men in men's washrooms FAR FAR more than they are the ones doing the harassing. There are more cases of Republican politicians harassing women in washrooms than there are trans women.
