Most bathroom stalls don't offer all that much privacy.

Yeah, that's a magical wonderland for guys who are freaks and perverts. That's always been true.

Yeah that part is stupid. If you've had the operation, go be with your current gender already.
Seriously?

I have been using womens bathrooms my whole life, and never once have I seen someones body parts exposed. You would have to be actively trying to see something to do so, and that would get noticed. There are already laws against peeping.

that's very sad for those women. but criminals will always find a way to hurt people. most of those women were not assaulted by a trans pretending to be a woman.

maybe the bigger issue is clearly that we shouldn't have public locker rooms that are so open if so many crimes are being committed in them.

I'd really like to see numbers on how many women are okay with letting biological men in there.
You don't seem to understand something. People don't go around the women's room looking to see genitals. Seriously. And if they do, REGARDLESS of who it is, they're going to get not only an earful but also get sued. It's called peeping. No good no matter who you are.

Don't care. If the residents of these redneck states would like industry to invest in their regions and continue to do so, they're going to need to shake their images and reputations as backwoods, inbred, trailer-dwelling members of the KKK.

The easiest way to accomplish that would be to first stop voting for backwoods, inbred, trailer-dwelling members of the KKK to represent them. Might help, just a little.

How many victims of sexual assault directly caused by allowing transgenders in is acceptable in your opinion? Ten? Twenty? If thirty women are raped or assaulted by phony transgenders, is that reason enough to change the laws back?

And don't underestimate perverts. They're already very stealthy about doing their thing. This crap is giving them a wide-open door. If you read through my last link, you noticed that there were a crap-ton of men who dressed up as women, wore wigs, wore bras and panties -- all to get their fix and/or gain access to their female victims. For all men willing to cross-dress to achieve their pervy goals, the transgender rights laws are like Christmas came early! Governments everywhere are making it 1000 times easier for them to do what they do!

Is a woman any less of a victim if she is not assaulted but is photoed/videoed peeing or showering, or in her bra and panties, etc?

Pervs can be clever about it too. They already find ways to rarely if ever get caught. Now that we're making it so much easier, I fully expect a massive increase in ill-gotten perv videos showing up online.

In a perfect world, that would be ideal. Unfortunately, gyms, high schools, businesses and other public places simply don't have the space nor the money to make a separate restroom, locker room or shower for everyone who needs one.

Picture a football stadium with one restroom per woman attending. How about the same thing with a Gold's Gym with a separate shower room for each woman? Not very realistic, is it?

Here is the PayPal fee schedule for transactions occurring in Saudi Arabia:

All of this 'outrage' is totally fabricated and illiterate.
I don't live in Saudi Arabia. I live in South Carolina, and the full intent of this law is to try to undo antidiscrimination laws. I have sent letters to the governor and the N.C. legislature informing them that after 60 years of going up for shopping, vacations, and concerts, I have spent my last nickel in N.C. until this idiocy is repealed. They probably won't notice my hundred dollars a week or so that I used to spend there, but I am not the only one who is boycotting them. They will eventually get the message and get with the plan.

Because only backwoods, inbred, trailer-dwelling members of the KKK dont like to see their uncle sport a dress and follow their daughters into the bathroom. You forgot "redneck"

First of all, yes, only a redneck or possibly a ghetto rat who crawled out of a slum. I'm glad you recognize it.

Second of all, assuming you're a man (I can't be sure, you seem rather insecure and threatened, are you a man?), would you really be gravely uncomfortable with this former woman being in a locker room with you?
