In the case of the shelters, the problem is not how to allocate the funding; the problem is what dorm to put them in. I agree that it is clear that the socially-desirable action is to give shelter independent of gender; it's also clear that some existing systems for support do not allow that without effort, and so far the effort has been allocated elsewhere. Ugh, just think about being trans and using a public restroom. Now think about being of high-school age, and being trans, and needing to use a bathroom. And yet if (more than) 0.1% of Canada is trans (dunno if that's true), then all of my high schools had (at least) one trans person, presumably closeted. Poor bastard. But on the other hand, what action can the administration take that isn't worse than nothing?
