Look, I don't know what happened here, but everything in my experience tells me this man more than likely misgendered this woman numerous times and made several transphobic comments, successfully goading her into "disorderly conduct".

apnews.com/d0b13c06f3764e…

So, even though this woman was well within her right to use the correct restroom and the police shouldn't have been called on her and she should expect dignity in a public space, SHE was arrested for reacting to a coward diminishing her humanity. Tell me how this is justice.

This is why even in jurisdictions with non-discrimination protections for trans people, so many of us still avoid public restrooms, gyms, pools, etc. -- because even when the law is on our side, there are cultural variables that force us to absorb indignity or face consequences.

Most men that I know, men who respect women as equals, are shocked when allegations come out about people like #HarveyWeinstein, #BillCosby, #LouisCK. They are in shock when men they know are accused of sexually harassing or assaulting women. THREAD 1 #BelieveWomen #RWU #MeToo

Some men find it very hard to believe that these things are so common, because they would never DO those things. If I were a man and I hadn’t experienced harassment and inappropriate behavior multiple times, I would probably find it difficult to believe. 2 #MeToo #BelieveHer

I decided to share about what I’ve experienced, so that good men who respect women can start to understand that these things happen to women know they know, work with, are related to, and love, every day. Their friends, neighbors, coworkers, relatives. 3 #sexualharassment

1-Wow. What a group. What a group. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you, folks. Thank you, folks. It's great to be right here in Florida, which we love.

In 26 days, we are going to win this great, great state and we are going to win the White House.

2-Our movement is about replacing a failed and corrupt — now, when I say "corrupt," I'm talking about totally corrupt — political establishment, with a new government controlled by you, the American people.

3-There is nothing the political establishment will not do — no lie that they won't tell, to hold their prestige and power at your expense. And that's what's been happening.
