It’s the exact opposite, I don’t care what restroom/fitting room etc.. that anyone uses. And actually like the idea of unisex rooms. So it not an argument for gender normative rooms, in disguise.

The shop assistant treated you the same as if you were a transman for example. It all came down to how you presented yourself.
But where does that leave non-binary, or trans people that might not dress according to the norm of the gender they identify with, for whatever reason? Should it be acceptable to question them? It seems to me that it’s none of your Buisness, and I shouldn’t have to tell anyone my gender identify, unless I wanted to.
Quote:There's nothing else to it.
Now if you were wearing a dress and trying to present yourself as a woman she may well have let you stay.
I believe I identify as non-binary, because there are certain aspects of traditional male/female identical, which I share, and don’t share with each, such as a disinterest in sports, a interest in aesthetics, open to discussing my feelings, over stoicism, enjoying cooking, etc.
