Opening public restrooms to transitioning transgender women could create an unsafe environment for other non-transgender women if the transitioning individuals do not respect the boundaries of other women in the facilities. However, ensuring that transitioning individuals are granted access to these public spaces would ensure overall safety and inclusivity as well. Additionally, ensuring appropriate measures such as alarmed doors or security patrols in these restrooms might create a safe, accessible space for all parties.

Yes, opening public restrooms to transitioning transgender women could potentially create an unsafe environment for non-transgender women. With increasing numbers of predators and individuals posing as transgender in order to exploit restrooms and locker rooms, other non-transgender women may become afraid to use public facilities. Additionally, some non-trans women worry about being unable to tell the difference between a transgender woman and a predator, which could lead to them feeling unsafe using any public facility. It is possible that this worry could prevent them from ever being able to feel safe in a public restroom or locker room ever again
