7. The laws for sports don't include trans guys

Although we would be included under regulations around performance enhancers, I suppose.

As far as the bathrooms go, my guess is when it gets to the point where baritones with beards are risking arrest to simply pee, and these cases are making the news, we will be excluded from all non-single-occupancy restrooms.

On the way to that point, it's useful for trans folks to familiarize themselves with self-defense laws in different states. Some states allow the use of deadly force in locations away from home when one's life is endangered.

We won't go quietly.
