It is not whether he fools someone (btw misgendering some of the activists would say). It is when he demands that you accept that he literally is a woman and not a man. I have met “feminine” trans, none convince and the most convincing only gets away with for a couple of minutes at best in close proximity. Distance is hardly a factor in justifying this nonsense. Live their lives and let women live theirs.

“It is when he demands that you accept that he literally is a woman and not a man.”

Yes, agreed. But we weren’t discussing this scenario. We were talking about the potential criminality of mistaking a man for a woman.

And even if you believe you’ve never done this (spoiler:you almost certainly have) transition surgeries/hormones are only ever going to get better. There will absolutely be a point when trans women pass most of the time. And the groundwork for that point needs to be laid now.
