Should a man be allowed to use women’s bathroom Under Any Circumstances?
Just about any one can say that they are a Transgender so they can get in side to take pictures of Women and young Girls, they are always complaining about Sex Offenders, and Pedophiles and the courts are not doing any thing about it other then Slapping them on the hand and saying don't do it again, and now the Courts are going to make another blunder and let it happen.
When it come down to it, what will they do if the women File Suite and Sue the Schools for allowing it to happen, does any one ever think about the out come of what will happen if the Court goes in favor of it, will a woman be safe when they go in to the restroom because of a law that allows it happen, and will women want to go to any College or School if it is allowed, they are having more trouble with Sex Offender every year, so how would you feel not knowing who was allowed in.
If a court allows it to happen they will be opening up the door to any one who comes forward and says that they are a Transgender, so then they can do their deed and get away with it because the court says they can, this is the same thing as the YWCA, No men are to be allowed in, not even a person to run the Organization, if you remember that happen a few years back in Tacoma Washington.
And on the other hand that same thing should not be allowed in men's Bathroom or the YMCA, for the same reason, what is good for one, is good for another, for years Women have been allowed in to the YMCA, But Men are not allowed in the door of the YWCA, talk about Discrimination.

ACLU insists that transgender man be allowed to use women’s bathroom
The American Civil Liberties Union has now filed a complaint on behalf of Alex Wilson, the transgender student in Florida who says he is a discrimination victim because the trade school he attends has prohibited him from using the women’s restroom.
Back in July, administrators at Pinellas Technical Education Center — a public school in Clearwater, Fla. — informed Wilson that he had to stop using the women’s restroom after an unidentified student complained.
Wilson was born male and is four years into a hormone therapy process designed to transform him into a female. However, he hasn’t undergone gender reassignment surgery. He is taking classes so he can become a licensed practical nurse.
School officials told Wilson he could use a facility in an inconvenient storage area, which he finds humiliating, reported Tampa NBC affiliate WFLA.
More recently, reports The Tampa Tribune, the administration offered Wilson the use a male faculty bathroom, which requires a key. However, Wilson wants no part of it.
"I’m trying to get my rights," Wilson told the Tribune. "I’m basically being told I can’t use the same restroom as everyone else; no matter how you look at it, it’s discrimination."
"It doesn’t resolve the humiliation they are placing on her and doesn’t resolve that they are segregating her," ACLU staff attorney Daniel Tilley told the paper.
The complaint filed on Tuesday with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil rights claims the school’s decision violates Title IX.
Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972 forbids sex discrimination in educational programs that receive federal funding.
Tilley said the next step in the complaint process will likely be an investigation by the U.S. Department of Education. He also noted that Title IX doesn’t cover transgender individuals. Nevertheless, the ACLU’s position is that courts should extend the law to allow transgender people to use the bathroom of their choice.
A spokeswoman for the career and technical school offered the administration’s take on the kerfuffle back in July.
"In a scenario such as the one you’re describing, a person will be offered access to a private restroom," Melanie Marquez Parra told WFLA. "And that’s for the individual’s privacy and for the privacy of other students."
