This lady was mistaken for a man and forced out of the lady’s restroom–which she was legally using–by North Carolina police because she didn’t have any ID. She couldn’t go in the men’s room in North Carolina, because that would be against the law.

Gallus Mag

This is Gallus Mag, a famous trans-male club bouncer. In North Carolina, she would be forced by law to follow your wife or daughter into the ladies room.

So would this trans-male model Buck Angel:

In North Carolina, both these trans-women would be forced by law to go into the Men’s Room:

Many women accompany their male partners into the men’s room to assist if their husbands are not capable of taking care of things without assistance. Illegal in North Carolina. Not sure about women taking male children or babies into the woman’s room…

Often at events the ladies rooms have huge lines and some women slip into the men’s rooms to pee. Illegal now in North Carolina.

This new law does not protect privacy. It invades privacy.

Besides the fact that the new law will cause many awkward and embarrassing situations that never happened before, it is also going to lead to a lot of lawsuits for libel, unlawful arrest, and violation of civil rights of many kinds.

The Justice Department has already warned that North Carolina is in violation of Title IX and Title VII.

It is not overreach for the federal government to protect the rights of all its citizens–it is its job.

The crazy, paranoid and weird gender phobias at work here create in the fevered imaginations of the far right a fear that men might start to dress up like women so they can get into a public bathroom and assault a woman or child. This has never happened before. It is extremely unlikely.

At present, and unless there comes a time with a guard at every public restroom, there is no need for that. A man could easily just walk into any restroom he wants, dressed in any outfit he wants. Why would he need to dress up like a woman? So he could sneak up on one without being spotted in the mirror?

This whole thing is ridiculous and wrong. North Carolina, what has happened to you?
