Edit: re: transhumanists: Gendered bathrooms don't make much sense in a world where gender and sex are much more fluid/in flux than they are now.
You actually kinda illustrate my point because your arguments are completely circular. Nudity is distracting for the other guests... because nudity is distracting.

It's like claiming that women should cover their hair because it's distracting. Maybe people will swerve off the road in east afghanistan over it but here in america a lot of people barely even register a two foot high fluorescent purple mohawk.
