You can't have it both ways, and that's what I've been arguing since all of these issues started popping up.
Everyone who argued for the bathroom would say "she is a girl," but then now she's not?
I am not a hypocrite. I just have a nuanced opinion that looks at the issue logically instead of just "black and white".
I am in favor of people having a much freedom as possible. I believe that the only time a persons freedom should be limited is when it imposes on another persons freedom. A transgender woman using the women's restroom does not take any freedoms away from anyone else, but a transgender woman using a women's locker room does.
Making strict "black and white" rules makes no sense. Instead each issue should be considered and weighed on its own merits. That is not being hypocritical. It is actually being more consistent.
For example. there are lots of jobs that handicapped people can not do. But I don't think that means no company should ever hire a handicapped person. Instead they should look at each situation individually. Sometimes it is okay to hire a handicapped person and some times it is not. There should be no blanket rule against hiring handicapped people.
