    The fact that I had to come here and see someone post this from a specialist outlet like The Advocate to read about this is just shameful.

    I check the news first thing when I get up in the morning and I did not see this story at all. Good luck.

    Also, this part should be emphasized to show that it’s not just an issue to trans women:

    The group was made up of people of all gender identities, including transgender and cisgender women alike, who displayed a pink banner in front of the women’s bathroom reading “Flush bathroom bigotry,” according to the group.

      Honestly, Chelsea has done a generous service already. I appreciate her participation but I think she’s earned the right to fade out of notoriety and try and build a more normal private life.

      The shit she was dragged through is fucking embarrassing (especially because it was done by democrats).
