•What is the legal difference between a man surreptitiously photographing another man's "backside" vs. a man surreptitiously photographing a woman's backside?
That depends on what you mean by "backside". If the man was wearing a skirt, and someone tried to take a photo surreptitiously beneath the skirt, the photographer could be charged with a crime depending upon state law. Not all states make it a crime to do "upskirt" photos.

So, if the male is wearing a skirt, I suppose he is protected by the same laws.

•What is the difference between a restraining order and an injunction?
In my state of CA? Nothing.

•If I want to try to file a TRO or get an injunction, how could I do this without having to pay a lawyer? I have friends in CA who could help me with the filing or I could do it in person the next time I am in CA.
You get the paperwork from the court or you can download it from www.courtinfo,ca.gov and then bring it to the court.

•I am assuming I would apply in the county in which I would likely have proximity to the "stalker".
That would be best. However, if the allegations did not occur in that county, your application will have some difficulty.
