Rejected petition Protect the right for trans people to use their preferred bathroom or space.

Make into law that anyone living as a male can use the male bathroom or female can use the female bathroom. As long as they are living as and are on the waiting list for, undergoing or compleated therapy they should be protected.

More details

For a Gender Recognition Certificate, the time is 2 years living as that gender. You are required to use a bathroom to relieve yourself. As someone living as a gender surely they should use that gender's bathroom (assuming gender-segregated bathrooms). Denying those people the legal right to use that bathroom puts them at great risk regardless of the door they pick. This denial cultivates gender stereotyping and encourages assault on trans people while they are at their most vulnerable.
