    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? 🧐

        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.

                I feel smartened

                    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.

              I think someone at a hotel is more likely to be carrying fake genitalia.

              You’d be surprise many fake ids get carried at hotels.

              But not usually for proving one’s gender.
