    They are a trans woman (like Laverne Cox), not a trans dude (like Elliot Page).

    If you’re upset that she can go into the changing room because she has a penis, why are you upset that you are not allowed to go into the changing room, since I assume that you have a penis?

      I’m not sure what you’re trying to say. But I’m not upset that I can’t go into the girls change room.

          I’m merely stating I don’t go in there with her. I didn’t say “I can’t go in there with her, but I want to”. I don’t want to. I want it to be a place for only woman. The rules align with my beliefs.

            The word “get” is linked to desire (“get to go” vs “have to go” vs “allowed to go”) but maybe you didn’t mean it that way.

            The changing room does appear to only be for women currently, which is why the woman you’re upset about is using it.

            If you want the changing room to be divided by genitals, that’s something different.

        I was always in the lady’s changing room ages 0-10 when my mother took me swimming. I was in the lady’s bathroom until I was about 7 probably, too. It’s normal for young kids to accompany their parents.
