I do wonder how you could resolve it though.

I have an idea, how about a transgender bathroom?

It doesn't work mostly because it doesn't appease transgendered people.

Because well... a "Transgendered person" in many ways isn't "Gender of Transgendered" they are "Male" or "Female" or "Both" or "Something".

Might as well make it the freak bathroom for how they will take it.

It makes the "Gender ID" look like a stroke of genius by comparison.

Ah, but how do you define transgender? Politicians aren't neccesarily going to agree on any single solid definition, and it might even be the wrong definition.

Or just go unisex.

And we're back at square one.

Good point.  I should have said unisex.

You can't have unisex because men and women cannot be together in the bathroom (From Texas perspective)

I am honestly not trying to troll.

I am trying to think of a realistic solution to a pretty hopeless problem.

Okay, how about splitting those 10 capacity bathrooms (for either sex) into 20 total unisex bathrooms? Reasonable? no?

Texans will just have to learn to get over it.  I mean, come on the toilets always have the little stall dividers don't they?  What is the big deal about washing your hands next to the opposite sex.

Ok so we are just going to wait for a shift in public opinion? what about the mean time?

I wasn't thinking you were trolling, just making a philosophical point, because seriously, you have to define transgender in law before you have transgender bathrooms, and not everybody is going to agree on the same definition, or come up with the wrong one alltogether.

Nah, we'll force them by gun point.  Its the Texan way. 

I'm not saying we can force anybody to do anything.  I'm just saying Unisex bathrooms is the best solution.

You know politicians are going to make that into a complicated definition though.

Literally the only significant outcome of having unisex bathrooms would be getting rid of the awkward little social dance around using urinals. But fuck logic, woo Texas!

(And Kentucky! I fucking hate living here! Woo!)

Kentucky is one of 9 which still bans gay marriage. Texas overturned the ban, but the decision has been stayed for the foreseeable future.
