I hear ya, man!

I'm always worried about gays in men's rooms.

I'm sure that many women are worried about lesbians being in their restrooms.

What would a petite woman do when confronted with a burly lesbian in a closed space?

What's so difficult about having a one-stall, one-person unisex bathroom?

You're not very sociable, are you?

Or, ARE YOU?

"Avoid socializing in public restrooms. Speak only when spoken to, talking to a person who is doing personal business may make them very uncomfortable, especially if they are a stranger. The restroom is not a place to chat; that can be done outside."

In some places, like where I work at, there are a couple of the one stalled restrooms. I personally like those due to the privacy it provides.

I have no idea why you would want to equate lesbians with creeps. I would say that is pretty closed minded and bigoted of you. But to each their own.

Nothing other than it might not be accommodating enough for a place where the public goes. It may work fine in your home but not in a store.

Robledo said she/he was being discriminated against.

Robledo said she/he was being unfairly treated by the store and by authorities in a rural area where questions about gender identity and the rights of transgender people rarely arise.

"I'm struggling here in this rural community as a transgender. Now I feel even more vulnerable," she/he said.

I work at a university that has not only men's rooms, women's rooms, but non-gender specific one toilet single person bathrooms as well. Everyone is happy. Believe it or not there are "pee-shy" individuals, both male and female, that cannot use public restrooms when other people are present.

Fundamentalists always equate and confuse excretion with sex.
