OP. You are just fine. It's the lady who is crazy. And apparently you are/were in a "traditional" state 'cause many states now days, in order to not be protested or boycotted have gender neutral bathrooms. All you have to do if ever confronted with an idiot like that lady again is to tell her that you identify yourself as a female and tell her to go take a hike.
What do you mean by "Traditional state" ?
"Identify as" doesn't make a rabbit into a deer, no matter how hard it wishes :R
It is actually the messed up thinking like this that has people on edge and defensive, whereas it used to be simple and accepted to make whatever accommodations are needed to care for our disabled, kids, whatever.
Now, thanks to idiots, gotta watch for the perverts and 'confused'
OP- Do what you need to do. If ever asked, "I'm a caregiver providing assistance" No other discussion or justification required. It is the polite and proper way to alleviate any concerns and you'll likely find people bend over backwards to provide extra privacy and accommodations.
Safe travels!
