How could it be that this went from something no one ever thought about to a civil rights crisis overnight? Was there suddenly a massive rise in the number of Americans calling themselves transgender? Is this Bruce Jenner’s fault? Is this that slippery slope that liberals insisted was a fallacy after the gay marriage ruling?

In fact, it was the product of years of study inside the government and a highly orchestrated campaign by advocates for gay and transgender people. Mindful of the role “Whites Only’’ bathrooms played in the civil rights battles of more than half a century ago, they have been maneuvering behind the scenes to press federal agencies, and ultimately Mr. Obama, to address a question that has roiled many school districts: Should those with differing anatomies share the same bathrooms?
