Similar reasoning is used to legally deny trans people such luxuries as the right to use a public bathroom.
In related news, today's paper had a story about a transwoman being brutally assaulted by another woman for "being in the wrong bathroom". The locale? Why, the fabulous Baltimore of course, the same place where black-on-white hate crimes made the news more than once in the two years I lived there. Apparently trans-panic ain't just for sex anymore.
