What it's like to live under North Carolina's bathroom law if you're transgender

http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-north-carolina-bathrooms-20160601-snap-story.html

The LA Times/By Matt Pearce   06/12/2016

"Going to the bathroom in public makes Payton McGarry nervous now. He's worried somebody will confront him. Or, worse, attack him. So before he leaves his apartment, he asks himself: "Have I drunk too much water today?"

That's because McGarry, a 20-year-old student at the University of North Carolina in Greensboro, is a transgender man. But because his birth certificate says he's female, North Carolina law says it's illegal for him to use the men's room at school."
