Absolutely. The idea that men would fake-live as women enough to convince a judge or notary, at risk of going to jail for 2 years for fraud, in order to gain access to toilets that they can get into if carrying a mop or a spanner, is crazy, conspiracy level stuff.https://twitter.com/PennyRed/status/1236740991534747648 …

Also this doesn't happen in countries that already have self ID, which is quite a lot of them. It is anti trans ghost stories playing on women's fear of rape.

What does ‘living like a woman’ look like in legal terms?

It doesn't look like anything - as it's never been defined. When I lived as a man, it consisted of wearing men's clothes. My psychiatrist never told me what living as an acquired gender entailed, and accepted my cross-dressing as evidence that I was living as a man.

The important point being that that was under some form of supervision. The proposed GRA change basically cuts out the whole psychiatric angle and give license to anyone to claim they're living for 3 months as their preferred gender.

I wasn't supervised. My psychiatrist just took me at my word.

Before you started the "living as" bit? Probably not expressing the thought properly.

I "lived as a man" during my unsupervised waiting period. I told the psych this at our first meeting, he noted it down, and it was never brought up again. I was injecting testosterone less than 6 months later.
