The assumption that they do is actually segregation based on sexuality, more than it is based on sex. The assumption that if men and women share a unisex toilet that men as abusers may try and assault the women (under this logic gay men should be banned from using male public toilets to protect the other men who are using them).

I don't understand this comparison at all to be honest. There is a lot of evidence of men being more violent (and especially more sexually violent) than women. Is there evidence that gay men (or gay women) are more violent than straight ones? I don't really see the need with mixing up sexuality and 'gender'. It actually quite annoys me when talking about this stuff and people are like 'oh but you would change next to a lesbian, whats the difference?!'
However, now that you have said about not agreeing with sex segregation to start with, I now completely understand how you do not see an issue with this. And also understand how you think that taking away womens rights (to areas segregated by sex) is not problematic.
So this will go round and round in circles as I do see need for sex segregation (maybe not in loos, provided the cubicles are full floor to ceiling and such) in certain areas of life

Maybe due to having different life experiences tbh.
