Cis cancer survivor harassed as “trans” in public toilets after having her breasts removed -
“A cisgender female cancer survivor who had her breasts removed said that public restroom users regularly challenge her gender, making her nervous about such confrontations….
“Public toilets are very stressful because people will always challenge me whenever I go in,” she said. “They will ask me if I’m in the right toilet, or get members of staff to question why I’m there— to which I have to constantly explain that I had cancer, not a sex change.”
“It’s that confrontation that I hate. I want people to understand that I am a woman, and I am in the right place,” she added.
When she wears clothing or wigs that are commonly seen as more feminine, she says she still gets mistreated because the clothes make her feel inauthentic and uncomfortable.”
It is easy to see that the real goal of TERFs and gender traditionalists is to get everyone to follow their narrow standards of gender. It has nothing to do with “biological sex”.

On this day, 31 December 1969, Dwight and Karl Armstrong stole a twin engined Cessna plane from an airport outside Madison, Wisconsin, flew 53 miles north and dropped three bombs on the Badger Army Ammunition Plant in protest against the Vietnam War. The brothers’ uncle had previously worked at the plant and had been killed in a workplace accident. The bombs failed to explode. But the attack was one of many violent anti-war acts which rocked the US as the Vietnam War continued.
