Trans Man Was Beaten By 3 Men After He’s Told To Use Women’s Restroom. Then He’s Arrested
thegailygrind.comA transgender man in Ohio says he was using the women’s restroom in a Preble County campground—which he was advised to do because he was assigned female at birth—when a group of men savagely beat him and was later arrested. “I have bruises on the back of my head from being punched in the back of the head,” Ruiz said Friday.
It happened July 3 at Cross’s Campground in Camden, Ruiz says, adding that he recalls going to the women’s restroom when a woman in the stall became upset. “I was using the bathroom, and she just started shouting.
She was like, ‘Who the [expletive] is in here?’ And I replied, ‘I am.’ My girlfriend replied, ‘I am as well.’ She was like, ‘No man should be in this bathroom.
Like, if you’re a man you need to use a man’s bathroom.’ And I was like, ‘I’m transgender. Like, I have woman body parts, and I was told to use this bathroom,’” Ruiz recalled.
