Actually, there is. The actions of a few should not dictate policy for the many.
Yes there are all sorts of bad people. There are also multitudes more of generally good people. Moreover, like any feared "Other" identified by a group dynamic there really aren't that many who are true pedophiles statistically speaking; we just hear the horror stories trumpeted in the media whenever they come to light.
There was the infamous McMartin Preschool Scandal in California back in 1983 which is credited with creating the subsequent hysteria about the prevalence of child molestation in the USA. Turns out that nothing actually ever occurred despite all the hype.
No one is saying that pedophilia does not exist. But the idea of a transgendered bathroom law attracting hordes of pedophiles is just more hysteria. If you truly fear such a thing, then do like most parents do when accompanied by preteen kids, either go inside with them, or stand outside to prevent anyone from going in who should not be in there when the child is alone.
