The law isn't about trans. It's about gender.
Maybe try reading the report first? They broke out respondents by gender identity - transgender being one of those.HRC Foundation and the University of Connecticut released the largest-of-its-kind survey ever of more than 12,000 LGBTQ

Moving the goalposts?
Right, and if no one saw him go in, then no one could have stopped him, law or no law.
I've seen pictures of masses of homosexuals roaming the streets naked at gay pride events. Why don't we see this sort of behavior at say Irish pride events?
Are you proposing lawlessness? An assault weapon would have stopped him. Maybe we need to peel back some gun laws. BTW, he was arrested. Arrested is synonymous with stopped.
Bingo! That's the problem! Glad you recognize it. That's why men shouldn't be in women's restrooms or locker rooms. Women have no way of knowing if they are trans or just pretending.
This nonsense by Pillen refers only to transgender people. He says that if you are, for example, a transwoman then you aren't allowed in a women's restroom. And you are saying that this will protect women from being assaulted by them? Complete and abject nonsense.
What question? You claimed I was moving the goal posts based on the title of the survey (LGBTQ). I pointed out that the survey breaks the respondents down by gender identity, so the results can be (and are) broken down by the same. No goal posts have moved.
He was arrested after assaulting someone. The point was that a law banning transgender women from the women's room would have done nothing to prevent the assault - he went into the bathroom unobserved and was not noticed until he committed his assault. The law you're pushing for would only have made a difference if he was noticed and claimed to be transgender (or was ignored on the possibility that he might be). That does not seem to be the case.
What do masses of naked homosexuals have to do with the rates of sexual assault among transgender teenagers?
There is no such thing as completely transgendered.
Trans "women" are still men and have no business being in a women's restroom. Period.
And you're going to stand at the door and ask personal questions of literaly every women who wants to enter and demand a birth certificate and maybe a blood sample. A sworn statement maybe. Do you have access to a lie detector? Keep a bible handy. And of course a copy of their police record if they have one. I'd recommend school and medical records. And a marriage certificate. If all else fails, a genital inspection by a qualified medical practitioner.
Is anyone going to stop every driver on the highway to make sure their diver's license is valid? No? Well then let's not have a law against driving with an invalid license.
Ah yes. If you're stopped, you show your licence. So now all women are going to need documentation showing that they were born biologically female. Or, as I said...are you going to stand at the door and ask personal questions of literally every women who wants to enter and demand a birth certificate and maybe a blood sample. A sworn statement maybe. Do you have access to a lie detector? Keep a bible handy. And of course a copy of their police record if they have one. I'd recommend school and medical records. And a marriage certificate. If all else fails, a genital inspection by a qualified medical practitioner.
I'm saying those analogies are ridiculous slippery slope hyperbole, that doesn't exist within the reality of actual law enforcement.
They're not analogies. They are actual means whereby you can determine if someone in a women's restroom was born a biological man. If you don't like the one's I've proposed then we'll go with your suggestion (which actually was an analogy) - women are going to need to carry a license. Some documentation to show they were born biologically female. And which they will have to produce on demand. Just like your driving licence.
