While I feel like TSs need to become more visible if we will ever gain acceptance, this certainly isn't the way. I don' care how dirty the toilet is I'll squat rather than stand and pee in public.

We need to become more visible in ways that present us as "normal" and woman, not in ways that makes us look bizarre, freakish and as jokes

Amber, I read the article earlier through yahoo. And the girl actually DEFENDED her actions, all I had to do was scroll down at the comments and find out that society just does not like that type of behaviour.

You are 100% correct, all she had to do was behave like she should , and none of this would've happened.

How can she pee standing up while in a Woman's rest room? Women's restrooms don't have those wall urinals. Maybe she peed on the floor.

There was a club where Allanah had her monthly parties years ago that had a unisex bathroom. All nite long hot girls would step up tp the urinals in their high heel pumps, hike up their mini skirts and piss standing side by side with us dudes. They put on a show for us cause they knew we loved it. Them were the days.

Going forward I see the simple task of taking a piss becoming a major issue. I believe there's a state considering legislation on genitalia based bathroom usage. You can't just let everyone who claims to feel like a gender use that bathroom, if they don't present or in this case act that way. Should what's in your brain or what's between your legs determine your bathroom usage? Sadly, I think that will become a burden on our already over worked legal system.

Public restrooms are disgusting - even some GGs pop a squat over the bowl to avoid having their cheeks touch the filthy toilet seats.

I feel that people should really just keep to their own when it comes to restrooms - do their business cut out and leave - there's no need to press your ear against the stall to hear if someone is peeing while standing up... c'mon America... >_>

A transgendered female customer who was banned from an Idaho grocery store and charged with trespassing after using the woman’s restroom says she feels she was discriminated against.
via NBC News (http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/04/13/17733363-transgender-woman-banned-from-idaho-grocery-store-over-restroom-use?lite)

A transgender woman whose use of a women’s restroom in an Idaho grocery store reportedly upset other customers has been cited for trespassing and banned from the store for a year, police said on Friday.
A Rosauers supermarket in Lewiston asked police to charge 25-year-old Ally Robledo, who was born male but identifies as female, with the misdemeanor trespass charge on Monday, Lewiston Police Captain Roger Lanier said.
“The store security officer said he had been dealing with a problem over a couple days with the person going into the women’s restroom and urinating while standing up,” Lanier said.
He added that the store had reported that Robledo’s use of the restroom made other female customers “very uncomfortable.”
Robledo said she was being discriminated against.
“I’m a female trapped in a man’s body. It’s natural for me to go to the ladies’ room. Getting the no trespassing order for a public restroom was really painful,” she said.
Ladies, how would you feel if you became aware that a transgendered woman with a peen was using the stall next to you?

Transgender shopper served trespassing papers for bathroom use

LEWISTON, Idaho - A 25-year-old transgender Lewiston resident who identifies as a woman said she's been served with trespassing papers after customers at a local grocery store complained when she used the women's bathroom.

"When I did use the males (restroom) there would be people that would harass me in school," Ally Robledo said. "I would feel really embarrassed and there were times when I found myself in a lot of dangerous situations."

Robledo, who prefers to go by Ally and identifies as a woman, was given a no trespass order Monday night shortly after leaving the Rosauer's grocery store location in Lewiston.

"A male subject who was using the female restroom, and that made some women customers uncomfortable because of the appearance that a male was using their restroom," said Lewiston Police Captain Roger Lanier.

Robledo doesn't understand the controversy.

"I really doubt that would be more socially acceptable than someone using the men's restroom," Ally said.

Lewiston Police say the store owners did nothing wrong in asking Robledo to never come back to the store.

"The store employees didn't want any further problems, and they chose to exercise their right to trespass this individual from the business," Lanier said. "Anyone who owns or controls their property can make that decision."

Robledo says she has gone through one phase of reconstructive surgery.

"I think calling the police is not really sufficient and I think it's a waste of our tax payer dollars," Ally said.

The issue of transgender individuals and the bathrooms they use is currently being addressed in Arizona.

Republican Arizona State Rep. John Kavanagh has garnered national attention after proposing a bill that would penalize people for using a bathroom that doesn't match the gender identity on their ID.

While Kavanagh tackles the issue in Arizona, many other states including Idaho, are left wondering what to do about the sensitive situation.

According to the National Center for Lesbian Rights, 13 states including Washington protect transgender people from discrimination in public accommodations, but the exact definition of a "public accommodation" differs from state to state.

There is currently no federal law that prohibits discrimination based on gender identity for public accommodations.

The manager on duty Wednesday afternoon at Rosauer's chose not to comment. KLEW News attempted to get an official comment from the corporate offices of Rosauers, however, our calls have not been returned.

Arizona legislature to consider making it a crime for trans people to use “opposite sex” bathrooms without proper paperwork

THE GUERRILLA ANGEL REPORT — [Updated, see below.] This bit of news came from Brahm Resnik, a political writer from AZcentral.com in an article titled: Show me your papers’ — before you pee.
This is from the bill (SB 1432):
A PERSON COMMITS DISORDERLY CONDUCT IF THE PERSON INTENTIONALLY ENTERS A PUBLIC RESTROOM, BATHROOM, SHOWER, BATH, DRESSING ROOM OR LOCKER ROOM AND A SIGN INDICATES THAT THE ROOM IS FOR THE EXCLUSIVE USE OF PERSONS OF ONE SEX AND THE PERSON IS NOT LEGALLY CLASSIFIED ON THE PERSON’S BIRTH CERTIFICATE AS A MEMBER OF THAT SEX.
Resnik says that the bill is intended for transgender people, making it a crime for them to use a bathroom that doesn’t match the gender on their birth certificate. The hearing for this bill is scheduled 2 p.m. Wednesday (March 20th).
[UPDATED: March 20, 2013] The hearing has been postponed. This is from The Republic:
“The furor surrounding Phoenix’s new anti-discrimination law has found its way to the state Capitol, with opponents pushing a bill that would block many transgender people from using the public bathroom of their choosing. But in a surprise move, a scheduled hearing on the legislation was postponed Wednesday afternoon until sometime next week.
Rep. John Kavanagh, R-Fountain Hills, wants to create Arizona’s first law governing restroom privileges. Under Senate Bill 1432, someone would be guilty of disorderly conduct if he or she uses a bathroom, locker room or dressing room that’s not designated for the sex listed on his or her birth certificate.
. . .
Kavanagh submitted the proposal as a “strike everything” amendment to an existing bill, meaning it strikes out all the original language and uses its shell to advance an entirely different proposal. Because it has an emergency clause, the law would go into effect immediately if the governor signs it.
SB 1432 would make it illegal to enter a bathroom if signage indicates it is exclusively for the opposite sex. Authorities could charge violators with a Class 1 misdemeanor, punishable by a $2,500 fine and up to six months in jail.”

Arizona Bill Would Restrict Bathrooms by Birth Gender

Anti-transgender bill would fine violators up to $2.5K


(Newser) – Arizona's House will today debate a bill that would make it illegal to enter a public bathroom, shower, or dressing room designated for a gender not listed on your birth certificate. The bill is an apparent response to the anti-discrimination law Phoenix passed last week that would allow transgender people to use their preferred bathroom. The new bill's sponsor, Rep. John Kavanagh, says it's "unacceptable" for a man who merely "thinks of himself" as a woman to use their facilities. "If you're male, you stick to the men's room," he tells KPHO (http://www.kpho.com/story/21726637/amended-bill-could-reverse-phoenixs-new-anti-discrimination-laws).
The bill would make using the wrong bathroom punishable by a fine of up to $2,500, AZ Family (http://www.azfamily.com/news/Bathroom-battle-heads-to-the-state-Capitol-198883601.html) reports. The House Appropriations Committee will take up the bill today. The bill has sparked outrage from transgender activists; Equality Arizona released a statement yesterday calling it "a disgusting invasion of privacy," one that could make criminals of women who duck into men's bathrooms to avoid long lines, the Arizona Daily Sun (http://azdailysun.com/news/local/state-and-regional/house-mulls-law-aimed-at-wrong-genders-in-public-restrooms/article_74105e69-e013-56a9-ac1d-ac1620e3491c.html) reports. (Kavanagh says police will "use discretion" in those circumstances.) Laurie Roberts at the Arizona Republic (http://www.azcentral.com/insiders/laurieroberts/2013/03/19/bathroom-bill-really-rep-kavanagh/) decries the bill as ridiculous. "Forget about showing your birth certificate to vote," she writes. "You soon may need to tote the thing around in order to use the bathroom."

First off "act like she should"?? Amber, what if all of you "act as you should", stop the transition, fuck a woman, and have some kids and go work in an office and live in suburbia. Seriously? If she wants to pee standing up, let her pee standing up! What is the big goddamn deal?

The bigger question is this: how did they KNOW? I don't think it had anything to do with how she was going to the bathroom. If every grocery store in L.A. has ONE room bathrooms for men and women, then I doubt that some po dunk town has several stalls and some woman next to her saw her standing while pissing. I'm sure there is one single occupancy ladie's room, and this TS is being discriminated against because she is (no offense) conspicuously TS. Perhaps there is more to the story here, and this particular gal was up to something. Who knows.

Wait! I read the original article again, and I think I know what actually happened. Everyone is assuming that someone "saw" her pee standing up. As I said before, I'm sure it is a one occupancy. So....that means this gal was doing what everyone with a penis does: either pissing all over the seat or not putting the seat back down! That's how they knew she was standing. And if I have learned one thing it's this: do not piss on a lady's seat or neglect to put the seat down. Hell hath no fury like a woman who has to inconvenience herself for a quarter of a second.

if she want to be a woman and treated like one that she should act like one.
i understand that for allot of you guys theres this whole fantasy aspect of things (ie the whole untucked thread) but often times our safety relies on our ability to blend in.even if people know what we are they tend to feel allot more comfortable and be more accepting when you display typical gender roles of the sex you want to be.
she wanted to piss like a man in the bathroom and she got called out.if a girl wants to avoid harassment than its in her best interest to act as normal as possible.
its really not that hard to tell when someone is standing.you can tell by which way her feet is pointing, the sound (its allot louder when you stand) or depending how tall she is you might be able to see her head above the stall.

Friends of mine have told me they'd love to be able to pee standing up. It really has nothing to do with gender roles, traditional or otherwise, which is of course to say nothing about why they're still enforced anyway. Seriously, go ahead and define "feminine" for us. Good luck.

It's discrimination, plain and simple.

Also, yes, a grocery store owner will make a big deal out of it if they believe that throwing one customer under the bus will make the bulk of their customer base happy. Anyone remember Chick-Fil-A?

Have you people ever used the bathroom???!! One person asked how can you pee standing up without a urinal and then this crazy assumption that they have one little bathroom. That supermarket chain appears very new and modern and it is HIGHLY unlikely that they have a one person bathroom--- that's old school. Not saying it's not possible, but if you think all supermarkets today have one person restrooms you are very much mistaken.

Rusty Eldora
04-15-2013, 10:29 PM
I feel Amber is correct, tgirls that identify as women should use the women's restroom as women per the 'rules'. The others in the restroom had their privacy invaded by this case.

We all want to live our lives the way we want, but we do not want to be forced to live the way someone else lives. I think the acceptance of gays was seriously hindered by the "Gay Pride" parades with public nudity without arrest, but if a hetro tried that would be quickly arrested. It's the "I need to put my lifestyle in your face" tactic. Well that is a good way to harden attitudes.

Restrooms are used by children, many parents want to shield their kids from sex talk until their teens (and may avoid even then). How does a mother explain to a daughter who saw her first tool in the women's restroom.

To be accepted one usually needs to be seen as 'normal', not a pervert.


All of the supermarkets where I live have 2 or more stalls plus a couple of urinals. In the US a store 3,000 SF or less can have a single restroom, over 6,000 SF a restroom for each gender needs to have two toilets. The guys can replace 1 toilet with a urinal.

NO ONE HAS STATED THAT THEY SAW/HEARD ANYTHING. I am not defending this person, because I truly think there is more to this story than meets the eye. She is the one on TV making a stink. The store just wants this to go away.

While I understand that TS safety often relies on being able to pass, why is that their problem? Why can't society be more accepting and less violent? Perhaps we should strive towards that instead of telling people to act "as they should".

I don't want to be told how I should have to pee by a tranny any more than I'd want some alpha male douche bucket telling me how I should live life the way I was physically born. The ability to stand while urinating is a god damned gift as far as I'm concerned... who am I to spit in the face of a naturally occurring convenience?

Besides, if you haven't paid me for the privilege, you really need to stop being so interested in how I aspirate. I'm a grown, tax paying, private citizen... I'll piss how I choose. If I don't meet you're completely made up personal criteria for a thing that doesn't actually matter anyhow, well, fuck off and die - I got shit to do - can't be bothered.

I do think that there is more to this story than is being said mostly because of this line from the article

“The store security officer said he had been dealing with a problem over a couple days with the person going into the women’s restroom and urinating while standing up,” Lanier said.

Seems odd to repeatedly return to the same grocery store day after day, considering that an issue has been made the first time. Stand or sit, it's your choice, but sometimes when you do things that are not typical by society standards it gives people pause. I can see myself being worried that the person standing in the stall next to me might be trying to peep over while I'm sitting on the toilet though, especially if the feet were pointed toward the toilet and not away from it.

Sorry to be awkward, but has the person in the story "admitted" or "agreed" that she was standing up when she peed?

Or is it just the ladies in the story saying - she not only uses the ladies room - she also pees like a man?

I'd like to know how the store CONFIRMED that she was peeing upright, as opposed to thinking - how do we placate the ladies complaining?

Any evidence?

Transgender woman banned from grocery store after using ladies' room



Police in Lewiston, Idaho, said a transgender woman was banned from a grocery store because some customers had complained she was using the women's restroom. According to 25-year-old Alberto Robledo, who identifies herself as Ally, police issued a "no trespassing" order against her as she left the Rosauers store. Ally said she'd previously used the women's restroom without any problems "because she looks and dresses like a woman." Police said that after customer complaints, however, store employees "chose to exercise their right to trespass this individual from the business." Unfortunately for Ally, there's currently no federal law that prohibits discrimination based on gender identity for "public accommodations."

Transgender woman banned from Idaho grocery store


The Associated Press

LEWISTON, Idaho — A transgender woman was banned from a western Idaho grocery store after customers complained she used the women's restroom, police in Lewiston said.

Alberto Robledo, 25, of Lewiston, identifies herself as female and goes by Ally. She was leaving a Rosauers store in Lewiston late on April 8 when police officers gave her paperwork informing her that she had a "no trespassing" order against her for using the women's restroom.

"They pretty much just came up and said, 'OK, you're not allowed at our store anymore,'" Robledo told the Lewiston Tribune.

A manager at Rosauers declined requests to comment made by a local newspaper and television station.

Police Capt. Roger Lanier said some customers complained about a man using the women's restroom.

"The store employees didn't want any further problems, and they chose to exercise their right to trespass this individual from the business," Lanier told KLEW-TV. "Anyone who owns or controls their property can make that decision."

Robledo said she has used the women's restroom at the store on previous occasions without any problems because she looks and dresses like a woman.

According to the National Center for Lesbian Rights, 13 states, including Washington, protect transgender people from discrimination in public accommodations, but the definition of a "public accommodation" differs from state to state.

There is currently no federal law that prohibits discrimination based on gender identity for public accommodations.

Rosauer’s grocery store boots trans woman after she uses women’s bathroom


THE GUERRILLA ANGEL REPORT — A Lewison, Idaho Rosauer’s location booted Ally Robledo after she used the women’s room at the store. Rosauer’s is a grocery chain based out of Spokane, Washington.

Captain Roger Lanier of the Lewiston Police: “A male subject who was using the female restroom, and that made some women customers uncomfortable because of the appearance that a male was using their restroom . . . The store employees didn’t want any further problems, and they chose to exercise their right to trespass this individual from the business. Anyone who owns or controls their property can make that decision.”

The Transgender Law Center’s Ilona Turner: “Transgender people have the same needs and deserve the same access to public stores and facilities as others without discrimination based on who they are. They just need to go to the bathroom like everyone else.”

Robledo was given a no tresspass order. Rosauer’s corporation office had no comment.

(Newser) – Arizona's House will today debate a bill that would make it illegal to enter a public bathroom, shower, or dressing room designated for a gender not listed on your birth certificate. The bill is an apparent response to the anti-discrimination law Phoenix passed last week that would allow transgender people to use their preferred bathroom. The new bill's sponsor, Rep. John Kavanagh, says it's "unacceptable" for a man who merely "thinks of himself" as a woman to use their facilities. "If you're male, you stick to the men's room," he tells KPHO.

The bill would make using the wrong bathroom punishable by a fine of up to $2,500, AZ Family reports. The House Appropriations Committee will take up the bill today. The bill has sparked outrage from transgender activists; Equality Arizona released a statement yesterday calling it "a disgusting invasion of privacy," one that could make criminals of women who duck into men's bathrooms to avoid long lines, the Arizona Daily Sun reports. (Kavanagh says police will "use discretion" in those circumstances.) Laurie Roberts at the Arizona Republic decries the bill as ridiculous. "Forget about showing your birth certificate to vote," she writes. "You soon may need to tote the thing around in order to use the bathroom."
