Most people who are against transgender bathrooms say that they are uncomfortable with the idea of letting trans women into women’s bathrooms. They fear that it will make it easier for men to walk into women’s bathrooms and prey on young girls. However, these people have overlooked the fact that when you reverse the genders in similar scenarios, it can be equally uncomfortable; albeit for different reasons.
Take for instance what happened at a school in Boyertown, Pennsylvania. Recently a lawsuit was filed against the school district over their transgender policy. Without alerting parents, the school decided to allow trans kids to change in whatever locker rooms that they preferred. A teenage boy claimed that he was uncomfortable when a biologically female student was changing next to him in the locker room, so he and several other boys voiced their concerns with the assistant principal.
