I'm torn, because I don't really want to dignify this comment with a response... but here goes. Your 'concern' for trans* people is transparently false, or at least misguided. I don't see how allowing someone to live with their gender identity is 'adding stress' to them: outing someone's trans status by forcing them legally to use the wrong restroom is... itself insane, and in no way 'protects' trans people. But if you're arguing in bad faith, and are not merely confused... well, please don't try to wrap this up as an issue of concern for trans people; the law compels, it takes away liberty. Claiming it's somehow in trans* people's interests is about 50-100 years out of date: you don't protect people by taking away their rights! That's paternalistic and wrong. And somehow suggesting that the freedom to choose the bathroom of your gender is making people commit suicide... that's your argument, right? Well, I just hope you're being facetious and I'm missing the irony.
