The Washington State example - and countless others - where the man disrobed twice in front of the girls swim team and women tried to alert people to it contradicts you.
The ROSS dressing room example contradicts you. She raised alarm and was told to buzz off and leave the cowboy in the dressing room.
I am confident there are thousands of cases in history where men have been caught in these safe spaces by women who raised alarms elsewhere. Reference the sex offenders database. News outlets haven't written much about them because compared to ISIS they haven't been national issues - till now.
Lots of sexual predators are not these stealth assassins you purport them to be. Reference exhibitionists like the man in California busted for being an exhibionist to little girls in these spaces or again - the man and the girls swim team.
To try to say that women keeping an eye out over 100+ years in these safe spaces doesn't thwart predator crimes is absurd.
What I'm saying is women aren't going to stop keeping an eye our for weird behavior because of this law. Yes, some people are so sick that they will openly act weird and that's still going to raise people's "something wrong" meter. If a man openly walks into a women's room he's still going to attract the attention of women, law or no law. He's going to have a low percentage chance of getting away with whatever it is he wants to do. Women are not going to just disrobe in front of him or start changing their tampons with the stall door open (uh...most of us don't do that anyway in front of anyone but it's been brought up repeatedly) just to be politically correct and avoid offending him. If he's standing there facing the crack in my stall I'm still gonna be freaked out (yeah I would be freaked out if it was a man or a woman doing that but that's another story) So if his goal is to be in there without raising people's hackles, he will fail.
If he is sneaky about getting in there or deceptive as far as appearing like a woman, as someone who wants to secretly film people is likely to be, this law will have no effect on him.
It's an unenforceable useless law that only affects harmless law abiding people who don't want to have to draw attention to the state of their genitals every time they use the bathroom.
