A new study from the Williams Institute reveals that transgender people frequently face harassment and denial of access when using restrooms that correspond to their birth sex. Data shows that trans men using women's bathrooms experience significantly higher rates of harassment, with 11% facing verbal abuse. Trans women using men's restrooms also encountered similar issues. Researchers argue that current restroom access debates erroneously focus on perceived threats to women's safety instead of recognizing the actual harms the transgender community faces, underscoring the need for more inclusive policies.
Transgender people face greater risks of harassment and denial when using restrooms that align with their assigned sex at birth, highlighting urgent policy reforms needed.
