Bathroom policies have never been a cover for rape.
That this person was actually trans, or pretending to be trans by wearing a skirt, or is cis and wore a skirt because he felt like it, doesn't have any relevance on being a rapist.

To go "well you know it's complicated" ignores the fact that rape is routinely ignored, brushed under the carpet, and tolerated in college campuses because administration doesn't think rape is a problem.

"Bathroom policies have never been a cover for rape."

True - that's because until about 15 minutes ago, bathroom policies weren't ever contoversial. To ignore the possibility that the trans student didn't take advantage of the LGBTQ+ friendly policy of "use whichever bathroom you feel like today" is a glaring narrative ommission, but then again this is WaPo. For those that seek the whole truth, look up the original story broke by the Daily Wire.
