Trans people are actually not banned anywhere from using the public restrooms they choose as far as I’m aware. I was using it as an example because it’s perhaps the most salient one along with trans women in sports.

But yes my view is that there should be no law or regulation or order saying anything about this, it is up to the people who use the space to decide who is or isn’t allowed. Same with sports, let the leagues decide.

Florida already passed a ban that focuses on state owned or leased property like government buildings and state parks in 2023. Those are public restrooms.

Ok well I didn’t know that, but it doesn’t change my argument.
