Ever. NEVER. And that's the point, IMO, the people that have such a problem with m2f transsexuals have personal sexual issues/boundaries that effect their perspective on our lives. :) not in bathrooms. Ever.

I love your comment. Dead on. Most of the time I think transphobic behavior is a subset of homophobia. What bothers me is that people who put up his kind of argument against transpeople have NO proof. If we used their same logic with kids and we'd never allow any child near a priest or pastor. Because they have commited sex crimes, it's not just hypothetical. LOL. I love your comment. Dead on. Most of the time I think transphobic behavior is a subset of homophobia.

Schadenfreude all the way around. I think it's more along the lines of good ol' internalized homophobia. DudeBro is spying on women in bathrooms (ew.) Gets wigged out on the possibility that he might be *gasp* watching a "man" instead, and would that make DudeBro GAY?!?!? (oh nooooes). So we must prevent a random trans person from using the facilities for normal business, to keep unhealthy but straight DudeBro from catching Teh Gay. One more instance of how sexism and homophobia hurt straight men too. Wow. Schadenfreude all the way around.
