One excuse I hear often is "Why do we have to change things and make accommodations for such a small percentage of the population?"
Well, people in wheelchairs and scooters make up a very small percentage of the population, yet I don't hear anyone griping about making wheelchair accessible ramps, accessible bathrooms, accessible parking spots, etc.
I know it's not a perfect comparison, but there are at least 1.4 million people in the US as of 2016 (probably far more now) that identify as trans--that's a lot of people to refuse to accommodate just because people get hung up on the "issue" of them being trans.
