Regardless of the current topic, every social and cultural development needs a speed limit. Radical change leads to radical currents. Because unchecked socio-cultural development depends on people. It does not involve people, but issues a dictate. And whether this dictate is progressive and positive is a moot point. But oppressive constraints lead to counter-movements.
First of all, trans people were assigned a gender at birth.
And what is written on a document, that's what's valid. Accordingly, Republicans are not kicking trans people out of bathrooms, they are maintaining the status quo and enforcing an enforcement of the current norms.
Your point is more that Republicans are standing in the way of trans people making a change in their documents that legally assures them the use of the bathroom they want.
This is unfortunate. I would have liked to further discuss this.
