Of course trans people who "pass" should use the toilets they're comfortable in. Who'd know?
Of course we need space in prisons set aside for trans people so they can be held safely and respectfully. That would put an end to male abusers trying to declare themselves trans, that's for sure.
Of course there are nasty abusive people who try to game the system to gain access to vulnerable people (and how many of them are police or prison guards?) who need to be dealt with, firmly. Some of them use the gender debate, some of them use their job, some their extreme wealth or status on social media. They all need dealing with.
The problem is the abuse & manipulation, not the route the abuser chooses to try to achieve their satisfaction.
And there are people who feel they need help with psycho-sexual-gender issues, who ought to be able to get advice & help without falling into the hands of a financially predatory medical system like the one in the US, or a manipulative abusive medical professional, for that matter. It's never going to be easy.
This will sound harsh, but part of the problem is the current aversion to calling things like this mental illness. Let's be real, if you are not clinically dysphoric and you want to sexually mutilate yourself it's crazy. I think that it is medical malpractice to not try to help the mentally ill from self-harm. If an issue is in your mind, I think that needs to be addressed first. I understand that is a slippery slope.

Some kid changing her “gender identity” every few hours. Quick get her on cross sex hormones and schedule surgery.
