If he vehemently claims that aside from all that he on the inside identifies as a woman, than realistically he is than allowed access right?

Anecdotal, but I've legitimately never met someone like that as part of the LGBT community. That might describe someone at the very beginning of their transition, but using a different bathroom would generally be a result of wanting to fit in with their appearance.

To put it crudely: the bathroom chosen is based more on appearance. No legitimate transgender person is going to dress like man and use the women's bathroom. They're using a bathroom outside of the gender they're born with because they're dressing like that gender (like the cowboy pictured above is making a statement on).

Bathroom choice isn't like, the FIRST thing a transgender person decides to switch up. If you see a man walking into a women's washroom, it's a man walking into a women's washroom.
