Protesters clashed in the streets of Los Angeles this weekend... all over a trans person using a bathroom. Let's talk about that.

<3 Indeed, it is sexual harassment

Jessie Earl

I don't have anything to say that hasn't already been said by others but thank you for this video. <3

Betsy Young Buck

Thank you for always covering these issues. I find them so hard to learn about and I can't imagine having to talk about them <3 why do people care so much about trans peoples junk. It's sexual harassment is it not?

As an (cis woman) ally I just want to tell all trans women that I will happily stand outside your stall and glare at anyone who tries to tell you that you are in the wrong place but I don't want you to have to need bouncers. My heart aches for you. I just wanted to send some love. Thank you for educating.

Indeed. I hope that the Wi Spa staff don't take this as a reason to try to be more ostrocizing to trans folks to avoid futher issues, which I worry might be the case.

Jessie Earl

Indeed. THere are some people saying the trans women is a youtuber, or at least has a youtube, but there's no proof of it and I wonder if it's just a way to try to target harassment at a specific person.

Jessie Earl

Exactly!

I do appreciate that the employee at Wi Spa - at least what we could see from the video - didn't back down when TERF Karen confronted her at the desk. The world would be a better place if more people worried about washing their hands after they pee, and less about policing other people's bodies in the stall next to them.

I wish I could say you are wrong. The truth is a lot of the anti trans people really would prefer that we simply did not exist. The bathroom is just one battleground. That said. I'd love to hear from the trans woman in this case. Who is she? What's her story. No one seems to care enough to find out.

I wouldn't even be surprised if no penis was visible at all and TERF Karen just thought she'd clocked a trans person and made the rest up. Not to equate the two, but to me this permanent sexualisation of a group of people just for existing has some structural similarities with the overt racism against black people especially in the first half of the 20th century: facts didn't count then either whenever bigots invented yet another story about a black man assaulting a white woman.
