Any citations on every trans person in the South being singled out for denial of services by the government? Because that sounds like inflammatory nonsense.
Additionally in living memory, many businesses and government services were segregated by race. In some cases some races were denied access to services or those services were severely underfunded. The legacy of that legal system still has impacts today.

For children. Or for state funding, but the state doesn't pay for the vast majority of plastic surgery.

Race doesn't need affirming medical care, or identification to single out. Also, businesses and government services weren't abstractly segregated by race, they were specifically discriminatory toward black people.
2. The example of racial segregation was to point out an additional time that a minority group was discriminated against. Black people getting less than adequate medical treatment is not them needing specific affirmative care and being denied it but an example of discrimination that was government sanctioned. Beyond pointing to the two sets of laws and their discriminatory natures the link is superficial, just another example of legal discrimination.
I cannot speak for you but denying the government the power to discriminate or oppress minorities and empowering the rights of individuals to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is worthwhile to me. Which is why seeing all these states pass these discriminatory laws is disheartening.
Case in point, the no fly lists, they literally don't care if they just ban all the John Smiths.
