Interesting! Can you name an area that you feel trans people should be treated as their birth sex for, regardless of their personal wishes?

Can you name any area that involves someone _other than the trans person’s romantic partners and doctors_ identifying the trans person based on their sex assigned at birth rather than the sex they want to be identified with?

Or would you withdraw all objections to this part of her argument if @DemonTree instead said:

_people should be treated accordingly in every area of **PUBLIC** life without regard for aspects of biological sex, and various other things._
