“Transgender” Bathrooms – Do You Know the Truth?

By Liberty Counsel

For all those who think there’s no problem with letting men into the ladies room, here’s a stark dose of reality.  Laws and policies allowing men open access to private spaces designed for women puts women at risk of attack. Increasing publicity will make women and girls targets for rapists, pedophiles and voyeurs. Below is a collection of articles and resources illustrating the danger of dual-sex restrooms, fitting rooms and shower facilities.

 

 

INCIDENTS ON RECORD: 

  1. Lancaster, PA – James Thomas Shoemaker (19). Quarryville man accused of using phone to look at 10-year-old girl in Sheetz restroom. Fox 43, April 18, 2016, available athttp://fox43.com/2016/04/18/quarryville-man-accused-of-using-phone-to-look-at-10-year-old-girl-in-sheetz-restroom/. The girl told her mother, who was waiting for her outside the bathroom, that a man was in the adjoining stall using his cell phone camera to record her as she used the facilities. Employees called the police, who found the man still in the bathroom an hour later, using his phone to access pornography, while in the stall, as well as using the camera on the phone to look under other stalls in order to view women next to him.

 

  1. Clearwater, FL – Ricky Blake Thompson (18). Police: Man attacks 6-year-old girl in women’s bathroom. KLFY News, April 30, 2016, available at http://klfy.com/2016/04/30/police-man-attacks-6-year-old-girl-in-womens-bathroom/.  A 6 year old girl panicked and screamed when she saw a man in the women’s restroom at Macy’s.  The man in question claimed that it was an “accident” that he was in the “incorrect bathroom” and when the young girl screamed, he “panicked” and “placed his hand over her mouth in an effort to silence her.”  The young girl then fell to the floor.  The man turned himself into the authorities after the incident.

 

  1. Olympia, WA. – Unidentified male. Sexual Assault Victims Speak Out Against Washington’s Transgender Bathroom Policies. Daily Signal, January 25, 2016, available athttp://dailysignal.com/2016/01/25/sexual-assault-victims-speak-out-against-washingtons-transgender-bathroom-policies/. YMCA Communications Director resigns, 300 families cancel membership due to YMCA policy allowing men into women’s restrooms. Prior to the statewide YMCA policy, the YMCA in Pierce County began allowing “transgender” members to use the locker room of their choosing.  When the policy was formally written, the communications director (a sexual assault victim) told her superiors that she could not support this decision.  YMCA  asked her to resign, and promised 10 weeks’ severance if she kept quiet.  After 300 households canceled their memberships over the new policy, in September 2015, YMCA scaled it back to try to appease the members that were leaving.  By December 2015, however YMCA had reinstated the policy of allowing men in women’s lockers (and vice versa), stating that it was simply following state law.

 

  1. Seattle, WA – Unidentified male. Seattle man in women’s locker room cites gender rule.

A man walked into a woman’s locker room and began to undress.  Evans Pool was open for lap swim on February 8, 2016, when a man wearing his bathing suit entered the women’s locker room and began to undress.  The women went to the staff who asked the man to leave, but the man stated that since Washington law had changed, he had a right to be in the locker room of his choice.  “No one was arrested in this case and police weren’t called, even though the man returned a second time while young girls were changing for swim practice.” See alsohttp://www.intellectualtakeout.org/blog/incident-highlights-problem-transgender-bathroom-laws

MRCTV, October 9, 2015, available at   http://www.mrctv.org/blog/university-dumps-transgender-bathrooms-after-peeping-incidents; Two incidents that occurred 5 days apart at the University of Toronto caused the University to close the transgender bathrooms as a temporary measure after voyeurism by males.  In both reports, two different male students were caught spying on females as they used the showers in the bathrooms.  The male students used their cell phones to take pictures of the females as they showered. Only the “gender neutral” bathrooms where this incident took place were closed, other “gender neutral” facilities on the campus remained open to males.  See alsohttp://www.dailywire.com/news/330/university-toronto-dumps-transgender-bathrooms-pardes-seleh

Michele Pihera with the Gwinnett County Police Department.The real estate agent was showing the man a home along Sugarloaf Parkway, in Gwinnett County, on Wednesday morning.

    “When she (the real estate agent) got there she felt uneasy about the situation. She didn’t want to go inside the home by herself,” Pihera said.

    After the man exited the home, he attacked the agent who was waiting on the front porch, according to investigators.  She was able to track down a passing car, and they called 911.

    “She tried to fight off the offender and she tried to run away and ultimately that probably saved her life,” Pihera said.

Nevertheless, Lambda Legal representative Ken Upton claimed that pedophilic male serial sex offenders like Mr. Witherspoonshould be allowed to access private women and girls’ facilities regardless of legal gender status as long as he and other men are “using the bathroom in a way that is consistent with the gender that they live in day in and day out”.

He had been caught in the women’s dressing room at an Oregon athletic club; a dressing room at Portland’s Mt. Scott Community Center in 2007, and was again caught in a women’s dressing room at a Nordstrom store in 2009, all dressed in women’s attire.https://allisonslaw.wordpress.com/tag/thomas-lee-benson/ Benson said he wants people to know he’s addicted to cross-dressing and he’s vowed to stop; however he is not certain he can change. “My drug of choice is women’s clothing,” he said. “The high I get is by having people look at me and say, ‘You are a woman.’” “Yes I have done things in the past that are bad, but I would also remind people I do not go around having sex with young girls anymore, and I have not been doing that in over 15 years,” he said.
