GOP candidate films herself confronting transgender woman using bathroom

BY JACQUELINE THOMSEN

A Republican candidate for Congress in California filmed herself confronting a transgender woman using the women’s bathroom at a Denny’s in Los Angeles.

Jazmina Saavedra, who is campaigning for a seat in California’s 44th District, streamed the incident on Facebook Live on Tuesday.

“I’m trying to use the ladies’ room and there is a man here claiming that he is a lady,” Saavedra said, entering the bathroom and filming outside the stall.

“You’re invading my privacy,” the transgender woman inside the stall said.

"You’re invading my privacy because I’m a woman and I deserve to use the woman, the ladies’ room,” Saavedra responded.

She then left the restroom and waited outside for the individual to exit.

“So, that guy is violating my right to use the ladies’ room here, and he’s saying he’s a lady! Stupid guy,” Saavedra said.

She then confronted the transgender woman as she left the restroom.

“Excuse me, I was using the toilet. ... Why are you singling me out, lady? And I see you yesterday following me,” the woman responded.

“I was with my pepper spray ready and I called the manager so he helped me,” Saavedra filmed herself saying after the woman departed. “How can I be with a man inside of the ladies’ room just because he thinks he’s a lady? This is unbelievable. Only in California this happens.”

Saavedra is running to challenge incumbent Rep. Nanette Barragán (D-Calif.)

The congressional district includes the cities of Compton, Watts and San Pedro, and has been represented by a Democrat since the 2012 elections.

Barragán issued a statement this week criticizing the incident at the Denny's.

"I was appalled by the treatment that this woman received for simply trying to use the restroom. Everyone has the right to their own identity, and the right not to be discriminated against for who they are," said in a statement reported by The Daily Beast.

I cannot imagine the a mind low enough to follow someone into the bathroom with a phone on a selfie-stick to make a political point. It speaks volumes about her low opinion of the thought[sic] processes and simple humanity of her voters that she would post it.

We could hope her victim has complained to the police about her lengthy harassment during a moment we all want privacy, but most likely it's far from their first experience of of such vile behaviour.

What a nasty woman.

In the liberal West you can choose to be whatever or whoever you want.

LOL... Liberal media and leftie are so fucking hypocrite! You forgot to add allow exception when come to Islam they turn a blind eye when come to Muslim crime like sexual assault on women and then call anyone who criticized them as Islamophobia!

Is it legal to film somebody (especially in a washroom) without consent?

At any rate this is a situation that might make people uncomfortable. Years ago (when Barrett was CEO), BMO had an executive who came out and worked as a pre-op transgender - so BMO built a special washroom on her floor in First Canadian Place to accomodate her and avoid controversy with other staff. Years later and some fears just won’t die.

I wonder what this Congresswoman thinks of gender-less bathrooms (like at some Universities, some restaurants and clubs)? I’m old school this way myself. I’ll use them, but if I have to take a nasty shit that sounds and smells like Godzilla was here, I’d rather not emerge from the cubicle with a group of horrified women watching.

This woman is an idiot.

That being said she isn't a congresswoman and is running in a Democrat held district. In L.A. do I doubt she will actually be elected fortunately.

100% agree in the last statement as well. And I'm betting most women would agree.

If you mean that on an internal-level, sure. If you identify as Superman, go nuts. If Superman deserves special treatment to avoid basic human rights violations, think again.

Just because you identify as smart, doesn’t mean you legally deserve recognition or special treatment as a result of that self-professed ‘intelligence.’

Dolezai went from being an instructor of Africana studies at Eastern Washington University, president of the NAACP chapter in Spokane, and Chair of (Spokane) police ombudsman commission, to being on food stamps in less than 3-years.

To my knowledge, she’s lost every court battle she’s initiated. She is NOT legally recognized by her self-identified ethnicity, despite using trans-rhetoric in each of her court battles.

Anyone, left or right, that uses her to prove a point around the falsehoods of trans-identities is a muppet. Whether they’re right or left, they’re stupid, and deserve to be laughed at. Being ignorant is a choice, unlike gender dysphoria.

The most apt comparison would be in how Dolezai and Saavedra falsely portrayed themselves as victims: Who is Lawson talking about here when he says "the most spectacular example of the growing phenomenon of people posing as victims", which he says is a "consequence of a culture which portrays victimhood as a form of moral superiority.”

I have to ask, in all sincerity, how is it any better if you come out and find a group of horrified men watching? I truly don't see (or feel) any difference.

Yes, everyone has a right to their own subjective view of their identity, and also has a right to their objective identity. However, they don't have a right to insist that their subjective identity is the same as their objective identity. "Who they are" corresponds to their objective identity.

If you have to ask this question, I think it's been a long time since your dating days.

As I said, I'm old school. So I still have the perception that many women don't appreciate a room clearing bowel movement, or a pant flapping, ear splitting fart. Whereas men will typically find the humour in both. This is social engineering, not genetics, as kids of both sexes love and appreciate a good loud windybanger. Men (myself included) tend to never grow out of this and don't face the pressures that it's not proper (especially in mixed company).

Sprinkle a 'some' here and there and I'll buy your explanation of such biased ideas about men and women as reasonable autobiography. But nothing's true of all women ir of all men.

And we both know the reality is that some men would be thoroughly disgusted, and some women would be giggling and laughing at your reddened cheeks as you exited. If there's a problem, it lies somewhere with the farter and the food, not the sign on the bathroom door.

And it doesn't entitle some one running for Fart Sherrif to poke a selfie stic=k over the stall door.

My "reddened cheeks"? Sir, you have mistaken me for a person who is embarrassed by a healthy bowel movement. On the contrary, I am more likely to take a photo to add to my twitter feed. #MotherofGodthatwasmassive (Just joking, I don't use twitter, but you get my point). And yes, agree that some women appreciate the humour in noisy bodily functions - after all, we all have them.

Any chance you could qualify or explain what you think objective vs subjective gender identity is in the case of the trans woman from the OP? Or all trans people for that matter.

Sure. Subjective identity is what you think you are (tall, short, fat, slim, white, black, Native, European, male, female). Objective identity is what you actually are, based on objective metrics (height, weight/BMI, DNA, etc.). Objectively, if you have male DNA, you are a male. You're welcome to think you are a female, but not entitled to have anyone else think the same.

So it's OK that I think of you in a flowered chintz dress and carrying a purse in a shade that matches your hat and shoes?

That's ok with me. However, I'd prefer that you didn't tell me what happens next in your fantasy.
