Guards 'mistake lesbian pair for men in Cineworld toilets'

Security guards questioned the couple in front of a crowd after seeing them in the toilets at Cineworld in Clements Road, Ilford, according to 28-year-old Tracey Seaton.

She and girlfriend Keira Williams, 27, were treating themselves to a post Christmas day out on December 27.

But their trip to see Annie was ruined, and Tracey, who lives in Barking, says she is now scared to use public toilets on her own.

“It’s just outrageous,” she said. “I have never felt so humiliated in all my life. For the first time ever I feel ashamed of being myself. They should treat couples with respect regardless of what people look like and make it a gay-friendly place.”

The couple were given £20 gift vouchers and two free tickets following the misunderstanding.

“They’ve given us gift vouchers and I’ve told them to stuff it,” said Tracey. “I just want them to train their staff on how to deal with these situations and on how to treat people appropriately.”

Tracey feels the incident was turned into a “huge drama” simply because of the way she and her girlfriend, who lives in Kent, looked.

An honest mistake. No apology needed.

I would think she'd be more humiliated to have been spotted paying money to see the remake of "Annie."

Ma’am, if you’d stop looking, dressing and acting like a man, perhaps people would stop mistaking you for a man. Drive on.

A neighbor of mine was out with her toddler, who had the most interesting maze of cornrows ending in little beads. They were incredibly neatly done, and must have taken a long time. I could not imagine a toddler putting up with the process.

“I love her hair!” I exclaimed, “Did it take long?”

“He’s a BOY” was the reply.

I was so embarrassed, but it really was an honest mistake.

Chalk it up to the massive pile of liberal unintended consequences.

It’s the dawning of the age of super sensitive,
The age of super sensitive...

They had the choice about whether to let it BE drama. Instead of laughing it off with an explanation, they had to drag everyone else down, pun maybe intended.

Dress like men, cut their hair like men’s, and then get outraged when confused for men.

So to summarize two bull dykes are offended because a normal person thought they might be men.

“Oh, sorry, how’s he doing” or some such. I bet his mom laughs about it with her friends. If she has a sense of humor.
