Are you in prison or competing at the highest level of sports? If not then why not just respect the preferences of trans people?

Still not a good reason to forbid trans people from public accomodations, keep it legal to discriminate against hiring trans people, deny them service, deny them loans, etc.
My point in asking about those edge cases is to say that it's not an excuse for the wide-ranging ways we torment trans people as a society.

Then the time to rise a stink and become loudly anti-trans is surely when the law starts to mandate[1] you dating them, or at the earliest, when it's starting to look as if the law is about to do so... But not before, right?
