      Step 1: Raise concern

      Step 2: Security calmly lets the person know that some of the other patrons are feeling uncomfortable because they think the person is male/female.

      Step 3: Person will say they’re female or identify as one.

      Step 4: Security says OK (maybe apologize for the inconvenience).

      Step 5: Let other patrons know. Anyone still uncomfortable can wait until the person leaves or use a different toilet.

      That’s really it. There’s no reason for an officer to ask for proof or ask them to get out if all they’re doing is using the bathroom.

      I think some of the snarky replies you are getting is a result of users assuming you’re asking a hypothetical just to ruffle feathers when the answer to your question is this simple.

        Thanks for the rational response.

        Step 3: Person will say they’re female or identify as one.

        Is identifying as the opposite sex really something that is commonplace now? Usually these discussions center around identifying as a ‘woman,’ which is why I was specifically referring to sex in my question.

        What if patrons who would be upset over having a male in the female restroom don’t care what the male identifies as?

      What if it was a dragon eating the patrons, would it be acceptable then?

      IT WASNT A MAN, THATS THE POINT

      None of this ever was an issue in the past until Republicans started pushing bullshit natives that noone cared about before to keep people distracted with a shiny turd whole they rob the state blind

        Yikes.

        This is what happens when you’re faced with rationality. Can’t say I’m surprised.

              Please use a good-faith interpretation of my question and explain how projecting your bigoted opinions on others is rational.

                I gotta ignore you now. You’re going to keep throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks.

                Goodbye.

                  Don’t let the door hit you on the way out. Too bad your “just asking questions” bad faith conservative drivel doesn’t work here and gets pushback. Maybe Twitter is more your speed.
