She did this as a form of protest, they had police stationed at the bathroom. I feel like this was so naive and dangerous and it won't change the policy. Really bad stuff can happen to trans women in men's prisons and it will follow you for life :/
yeah. felt like an attempt to "call their bluff" as if they were bluffing about hating her. Did she genuinely think if she seemed normal-christian-white-girl enough they wouldn't touch her? Or maybe that part about "I know that you won't arrest me" was just the catholicism talking and she actually understood she would probably be arrested. She did seem to have some idea of the risks. Still a needless stunt, I can't imagine this getting through to many people :(
I'm still stuck on what she said. It's extremely USAmerican to say, βIβm not a political activist,β and then do political activism.
Yeah its honestly an affront to language and words how this concept has shaken out... as political action of any kind and caring about things have become so demonized
What she's saying is "I'm one of the normal ones, I'm just like you, I'm not political"
Some parts hide it better than others but the US is a deeply fascist society
