Have you been paying attention to the BS that's been going on since this law past?

You know what? The majority often trods on the rights of minorities.

Yeah, well. It didn't help the girl in the OP much, did it? Didn't help other victims of restroom assaults, has it? Feeling "secure" in a public restroom has not really been a prudent point of view for a long time. Criminals have been using public restrooms for a very long time.
The "law" is called Title IX and it dates from well before Obama was in office. But you still haven't read what the White House put out, have you?
You know exactly Obama's mandate is a law. Otherwise he wouldn't be able to force schools to do his bidding.
Which rights are those?
And now some minorities want to trod on the rights of the majority...
What made it harder? Did the guy in the OP have a hard time doing what he did?
But it made it harder for such people to do these atrocious acts
No. Those acts are still a crime. The penalties are the same. Those penalties didn't stop if from happening, did they? You want to discriminate because of what might happen? You may want to rethink that.
You want to make it easier for them?...

I consider anyone supporting this to be very dark, who want to give their overlords for whomever they work for, access to women and children.
They can have a third can if they want, but men don't get to come into mine PERIOD!

Your OP shows that public restrooms are not a "safe space", nor have they ever been.
Humm, wow Phage... what rights?... the rights of females and minors to have their own safe space..
No. A security guard was arrested for physically removing a transgendered person from a restroom.
If they do it now, the police send to jail the person pointing the fact that a man is going into a women's restroom...
What has stopped mentally unstable people from entering women's restrooms (or mens' for that matter)? Nothing. What has changed in that regard? Nothing.
So you don't want to prevent people who might be mentally unstable from entering women's restrooms?.

Women don't feel safe around many men, just so you know. WRONG
Girls don't want to see men in their private places at all, and it traumatizes them, that's if nothing happens. I believe you're confusing trans women and men. The two aren't necessarily the same.
Women and girls are not the sacrifice for this minority. Nobody is being asked to "sacrifice" anything for transgender people.
They can have a third can if they want, but men don't get to come into mine PERIOD! Men aren't allowed to use the ladies room. I don't see the relevance of your claims.

Man-splaining Is No Excuse For Invading Girls’ Locker Rooms
The 150 Missouri girls who walked out of their locker room when a young man barged in, insisting he’s a woman, are courageous and deserve admiration, not man-splaining.
One hundred and fifty students at a high school in Missouri are braver than I am. Up until now, I have not really shared how politically incorrect I am: I refuse to use pronouns of someone’s choosing. If a man was born a man, I will call him “he” and vice versa for a woman.
While I’ve been told I should use a pronoun of one’s choosing out of respect and kindness, I decline to do so because I refuse to play along with the delusion. We don’t play along with the delusions of schizophrenics, and I won’t play along with the notion that someone with a penis is somehow a woman. It’s usually the same folks who scream about (the complicated) science on global warming also asking the rest of us to ignore basic human biology. The times, they may be a changin’, but I refuse to go along with the tide. The situation in Missouri is why.

Your rights end where mine start and it really doesn't matter how many of "you" there are. Not in this country.

But perhaps you should read the White House guidance document.
You cannot actually push someone's rights on someone else (though some may not like you exercising yours). But you can give everyone the same rights. That's supposed to be what this country is about. We're getting there. A lot of ignorance, prejudice, and fear to deal with.
Yet what this is doing is pushing what they want to call the rights of a few on the many.
Yeah, well. Title IX is a law, afterall. A law that says federal funding cannot be given to states which discriminate based on gender. A law that has been in effect for more than 40 years.
Government's are not always "right" Phage... More so when they want to force people into submission..
