But the persecution of transgenders goes far beyond "feeling uncomfortable".  They are a small minority that has been bullied, ostracized, and even physically abused by people who do not accept them.  That is something you will never understand.

It is a shame you are so uncaring about folks that might have "issues". I would suggest that someone born as a male, but identifies as a woman might have "issues", but we got to make laws to make them more comfortable; right? I am unaware of any rampant abuse of transgenders in public facilities currently and if so I'm sure there are laws currently in place to protect them against physical abuse. Do you think perhaps they are ignorant of these laws?
