Maybe, but I doubt it.

No you didn't. You outlined your attempt to justify an emotional position.

Again, you have a very warped view of this issue. The vast majority of people, including business owners, do not think like you.

98% of business are not going to accommodate transgenders unless forced by the government.

I'm okay with that.

I disagree. I think most businesses would want to set their policies, rather than leaving it up to individual customers.

Agreed. Those little signs on the door usually indicate their policy.

It means you've made an irrelevant point that I don't need to address with anything more substantive.

You are spinning yourself in circles. I find it highly amusing. Thanks for providing some entertainment. This golf tourney is pretty boring right now.

Accepting your surrender doesn't make it about winning. You surrendered, I accepted. That's it.

This part is where I disagree with the doctor. It's one thing to have a stance on an issue; it's entirely different to lack the compassion to treat an individual with respect. It doesn't take a whole lot to refer to someone like they want to be referred to. Compelled speech is a different matter, in my opinion.

That said, I think I'd find somewhere else to work if I were him. The situation was handled poorly (even though he was being a bit of a dick).

From what? What hypothetical tells you that it's OK to prevent someone from using the bathroom because you're emotionally fragile?

You can't do this with a one size fits all rule.

It's entirely situational.
