Trans people are asking for unreasonable extra accommodation, not just equal rights.

What is the unreasonable extra accommodation you believe they are asking for?

For example, trans people would like the exact same ability to volunteer to read a story to kids in a library as anyone else does. Upthread you mentioned little people, or overweight people - we would never pass legislation or policies making it unlawful for members of those groups to read to kids in a library. Why trans people? Why is that unreasonable?

Similarly, trans people would like the same ability to be depicted in literature as any other group - that books that depict a trans person as a parent, or a child, or at all should be able to be carried in school libraries the same as anyone else. We would never remove a book from the children's section just because it depicted a person in a wheelchair, or who was a little person, or who was overweight. It's not an "extra accommodation" for that same approach to apply to trans folks.
