Is there a magical barrier that keeps men who don't say they're trans from entering women's bathrooms?
The social contract, and the knowledge that it isn't acceptable and any women inside would likely scream and the man would be perceived as an attempted rapist and would face consequences.
Rapists, well known followers of social contract who only do things that are acceptable...
It's not concerning at all that this didn't seem immensely silly and wrong when you typed it...
Because if a bathroom allows trans women, women will then be unable to scream while facing an attempted rape?
Are you advocating that any man who even accidentally enters a woman's restroom startling a woman be declared an attempted rapists?
Otherwise, they will be considered an attempted rapist whether trans and allowed in the bathroom or not...when they start doing the attempted rape...
