How about we don't decide what bathrooms people can or can't use by telling them to prove it using their genitals? That seems to be the societal norm that is so dear to you.

Transgender people are pretty much requesting basic civility and privacy. What do they get for that request? Bullying, bible-based lessons in genetics, , being equated to sexual predators, and outright 'woe is me' complaints by people who seem to think the very existence of transgender people is an inconvenience to them.

Reading these comments sounds no different than the stories you hear about people in Russia thinking that all homosexuals are pedophiles and other outlandish things. It's sickening. If you're a straight white person without disabilities it's really hard to understand how the world might be for people of difference. All anyone is asking for are equal rights and the ability to live their life normally in peace. The right thing to do is to give everyone the same respect you deserve.
