Today, while I was out to eat, I was approached by the restaurant manager. He told me that while he respected my personal choices, his patrons didn't feel comfortable with someone who used to be a man using the women's restroom. He thought I was a transsexual. I am a naturally-born female. FML

I don't see why people would be uncomfortable seeing someone using the restroom, I mean the woman's washroom have stalls... unless you were standing while peeing... or doing perverted shit by peeking on someone then yea. I'm a female and I walk into the guy's if the girl's is locked. Seriously, transsexual or not, if you have to go you have to go. But then again a guy wouldn't be comfortable seeing a female in their washroom. I feel for you but I can't help but laugh at this situation.

Most transgendered people I know look *fantastic*, you'd be hard pressed to tell. That aside, what the manager did was also against the law (at least in the US). Transgendered people who have undergone sexual reassignment surgery are then LEGALLY the gender they transitioned to. In other words, if you are a transgendered person born a man who transitions to a woman and has surgery, you can have your birth certificate altered. You can also now legally marry a woman in any state in the United States, because you ARE a woman. And all THAT aside, I wouldn't care if someone was a transvestite, if you're dressed as a woman feel free to use the bathroom. Unless the person (ANY PERSON) is doing something other than appropriately using the facility...who cares. :P What a bigot that manager was!

I wouldn't be so sure that customers complained. I'm not ruling that out as a possibility, but the manager where I work uses that as an excuse to say things to customers. "We're getting complaints from other guests that you're being too noisy, could you please keep it down?" and such. And I LOL at the people who say, "Oh that's so sad. Are you ugly/mannish?" I knew a girl in high school. I thought she was the hottest thing on two legs until I spoke to her and found out that she was actually a girl. Small chest, short hair. Could have just been a boy with fine features, but alas... Anyway. You don't have to be 'mannish' to look like a guy, sometimes it takes a flat chest and a short hair cut.

You know what, your one of many girls that this happens to pretty much at least 20 people I know get mistaken for guys. and they are girls. My ex had to show them her ID in the womens restroom once. So maybe he didn't think you were transsexual just a "butch" lesbian.
