The Idaho StatesmenBy Brian Dittmeier and Brandalyn BicknerApril 29, 2026She was 18 years old when a restaurant server followed her into the bathroom, pounded on her stall door, and demanded she leave. The server refused to believe Gerika Murda was a woman, so Murda unzipped her baggy sweatshirt and stepped forward. Only after seeing her breasts in a tighter shirt did the server finally back down.This is what gender surveillance looks like in practice. It’s where you, your friend, your daughter or your wife must undress to “prove” their womanhood in a public restroom. For over a decade, conservative lawmakers have justified trans bathroom bans as protection for women and girls, despite the overwhelming lack of evidence that transgender people pose any danger to women, and the fact that crimes in bathrooms — such as sexual assault or indecent exposure — are already crimes.Just weeks ago, Idaho made using the “wrong” bathroom in a private business or government building a crime punishable by up to five years in prison. The math here is perplexing: Why is the Idaho Legislature focused on restricting the rights of the 0.64% of Idahoans who identify as transgender while 41% of Idaho households are struggling to pay for housing, childcare and food?
Just think what the legislature could do if they devoted their time and effort in to the real problems in Idaho? Then again, that might be the real reason that they are going after us... to distract us from what they are really doing or not doing.
This is not the first time this has happened! Just searching last year I found these articles.
The hotel says it has suspended the security guard responsible and will conduct mandatory retraining for all staff on inclusive protocols.ThemBy Abby MonteilMay 6, 2025A queer couple said they were ordered to leave a Boston hotel on Saturday after a security officer demanded one of the women to show identification to “prove” her sex while using the women’s restroom. Both women are cisgender.In an online Google review of Liberty Hotel published on Monday, Boston.com reports that Elizabeth Victor said the security officer approached her girlfriend, Ansley Baker, while she was in a stall, using the toilet. The couple was attending a Kentucky Derby party at the hotel when, according to Victor, Baker was “forcibly removed from the women’s restroom by a staff member.”
And that is on top of the fact... it is not like Republican states where they discriminant against us... this is Massachusetts!
Both women are cis, CBS’ local affiliate reports, but it is important to note that according to the Movement Advancement Project, Massachusetts does not prohibit people from using the bathroom consistent with their gender identity. The state also explicitly prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.“She was humiliated and physically confronted while still inside the stall, pulling up her pants, and forced to show ID to ‘prove’ her sex,” Victor wrote. “Even after verifying she is a woman, we were both ejected from the event entirely, while shaken, crying, and publicly shamed… No guests stepped in. No staff de-escalated the situation. No compassion was shown. This was not just unprofessional — it was traumatizing, discriminatory, and dehumanizing. My partner and I are devastated.”
Watch out! The "Gender Police" is out there!
Gerika Mudra, an 18-year-old high school student in Minnesota, has since filed a charge of discrimination against the restaurantPeopleBy Sam GilletteAugust 13, 2025A high school student is fighting back after a Buffalo Wild Wings employee allegedly followed her into the bathroom and wouldn't stop harassing her until the teen ended up unzipping her hoodie to "prove" she's a girl.On Tuesday, Aug. 12, Gender Justice filed a charge of discrimination with the Minnesota Department of Human Rights (MDHR) on behalf of 18-year-old high school student Gerika Mudra, according to a press release from the nonprofit.Mudra, who is a biracial lesbian, according to NBC News, was eating at a Buffalo Wild Wings in Owatonna when she got up to use the bathroom.In a video released by Gender Justice, the teen said the server followed her into the bathroom and "came in yelling, 'This is a women's restroom, the man needs to get out.' "
Watch out! The "Gender Police" is out to get you!
“Gender policing” is pinching cis women who don’t conform to expected appearance norms!
This isn't new, I wrote about the same thing back in 2006 at boxing match where a security guard yelled "This is Security! Everyone out! There's a man in the bathroom!" Then again in 2016, in Trump's first term I wrote where a grandma was jailed in a men's jail with 40 male prisoners for over 10 hours!
Watch out! The "Gender Police" is enforcing Trump's version of female beauty... how many long haired blonde women work in the White House? Have you seem any women working there with short dark hair? Hmm...? Just saying.
