The Liberty Hotel in Boston has suspended the guard and promised staff retraining after forcibly removing a cisgender lesbian from the women’s restroom.
I didn’t see in the article where the guard asked to see the woman’s genitals. That aside, I hope that the woman at least gets a very substantial payout from this harassment.
Drivers License? of course theres always the possibility its fake, but the likely hood someone carrying a fake one at a hotel I wouldnt think is particularly high
This was informative, and unexpectedly candid. I guess I understand downvotes as an expression of disapproval of the act of making fake IDs but if it was legal at the time to make them, then only the ethical argument remains and that’s moot if it’s illegal now.
Because the state is the source of morality and so anything that undermines the state’s purity and control is necessarily immoral. Of course we don’t believe this consciously, but on an emotional level, nearly all of us have some of this bias.
Wait wait
They want the woman to go to the men’s room???
😵💫
Or… Or, is it that maybe gender is like maybe a lil bit gray, and the officer made a mistake? 🧐

According to the article, he asked to see her ID. Which is more than fucked up enough already.
The problem is in the demand itself

You’d be surprise many fake ids get carried at hotels.
But not usually for proving one’s gender.
I think someone at a hotel is more likely to be carrying fake genitalia.
Wow, that’s a leap. You good?
