@All:
I still have no idea how people think this could possibly work.
They seem to be expecting trans people to volunteer themselves as such, and then submit to some kind of judgement about where they should go. Insisting they use a third area is even more absurd, as they are then identifying themselves for all to see. You think they want to do that? With all the ignorance and bigotry around, they may as well paint a bullseye on themselves.
Stop and think for a minute, please. Imagine someone pulls you aside and says, "Game's up. We know you're not really a man/woman. You look suspicious." Yes, you. Anyone. It's purely a matter of opinion who does and doesn't look "enough" like a certain sex. If you think you could pick trans people out of a lineup, in general, you're ignorant.
What would be far better, in my opinion, is just urinals in one room and then a series of unisex cubicles.
