Trans Exclusionary Ladies Against Women.

Most of the women who don't want to share restrooms with their trans sisters are the fluttery types who think feminists are ugly man haters and like patriarchy because there is so little room for them to fail.

Offhand, I'd say most of the objection to trans women using the ladies' is coming from men.
