Some are saying a person has rights based on how they perceive their orientation.
Is someone decides they relate better in the world to a different gender orientation display (can't even say opposite sex; as it means little today), they claim rights based on those feelings.
As in the recently publicized case of a student born male, and who considers his (?) orientation to be bi-sexual and wants the right to go to school in full out female oriented clothing and makeup, when he feels inspired to do so.
The school banned him (?) as "a distraction", and he's enlisted an attorney.
Some venues have stated that if a "born male", or "born female", is unsure of their orientation, they have the legal right to dress as they wish and use the rest room facilities of their daily "choice decision" for that day.
I guess this is all considered to be human progress.
