A Dallas transsexual woman was issued a ticket for using the women?s restroom at an area hospital. Parkland police cited Paula Witherspoon, whose legal name is Paul Witherspoon, for disorderly conduct on April 25.
That's pretty despicable. I wonder why she hasn't had her gender and name changed yet. I guess Texas law is that messed up. Though she could have a case in federal court for discrimination against Dallas police.
I don't have my name or gender changed on my license, but than I pass well enough to not have that happen. And even if it happened to me, my state wouldn't allow the discrimination. So I most likely wouldn't be sited. Though that is one of my fears. :/
And the reporter Ellen Goldberg slipped with the wrong pronoun. Though it is understandable. But the media should be up to par by now. :/
