This case could he a legal precedent not just for “transsexual” gender identity, but for dress codes in general.

For example, many workplaces require professional dress, and ban visible tattoos, or extravagant jewelry, hoop earrings and the like.

If this decision comes out in favor of the transsexual, it could be used as precedent to overturn any workplace dress codes. If the court decides that the transsexual right to gender expression overrides everything else, then what about those who express themselves with gaudy jewelry, bare midriff clothing, booty shorts, torn blue jeans in a professional office, T shirts as outerwear, etc...

Do you get to live in accord with your religious values or not?

If a person can just determine, by themselves, that they are the opposite sex - then what is to prevent someone from self-identifying as a black person, or a disabled person or similar and gaining the priviledges accorded to them (small disadvantaged businesses, college quotas, etc.).

BTW - the “Equality Act” that passed in the House is also not just about gender - but does include race, etc. in the bill (NOTE FIRST FEW WORDS IN PARAGRAPH 2!!):

“(q) ‘Race’, ‘color’, ‘religion’, ‘sex’ (including ‘sexual orientation’ and ‘gender identity’), ‘handicap’, ‘familial status’, or ‘national origin’, used with respect to an individual, includes—

“(1) the race, color, religion, sex (including sexual orientation and gender identity), handicap, familial status, or national origin, respectively, of another person with whom the individual is associated or has been associated; and

“(2) a perception or belief, even if inaccurate, concerning the race, color, religion, sex (including sexual orientation and gender identity), handicap, familial status, or national origin, respectively, of the individual.”;
