Use of single-sex toilets, changing rooms and hospital wards in England, Scotland and Wales is now restricted according to a person’s birth sex, rather than the gender with which they identify.

A lot of trans people say they will still be going to the right bathroom for their gender because going to the wrong one would cause problems.

a lot of trans people pass extremely well. i guarantee every person in this country has taken a shit 3 feet away from a trans person taking their shit, and will never know it. this political climate mainly brutalizes trans women who dont pass well for whatever reason, be it late blooming or not caring to do voice training or feminisation surgeries which is a completely valid and personal choice.
