Transgender woman defies Wyoming's new bathroom bill with stunt inside state's capitol building

A transgender woman defiantly violated a newly-implemented bathroom law in Wyoming - and was left stunned when nothing happened.

Rihanna Kelver, 27, had been planning for months to use the women's restroom at the Wyoming State Capitol in protest of a new law that restricts people to the bathroom corresponding with their sex in public buildings.

She explained to the Laramie Reporter that she saw her use of the women's bathroom at the state capitol - right next to the governor's office - as 'a pretty simple and creative direct action to either A) force litigation that could help us dismantle this policy or B) at least force the message that the policy is kind of worthless.'

Kelver then traveled to Cheyenne on Tuesday, when the law went into effect, for her act of protest.

'I do not inherently believe in the state's interpretation of my identity,' she told supporters before walking into the women's room. 'Nor will I willfully be silent in the enforcement of where and how I can exist in public and who I am.'

By 12.30pm, Kelver marched into the capitol and approached a Wyoming Highway Patrol officer stationed at a desk near the restrooms and announced her intention to use the bathroom, Cowboy State Daily reports.

The officer did not have any issue with that, and Kelver then entered the women's room next to Gov. Mark Gordon's Office.

Moments later, she exited the building via the front entrance without any issue - despite telling her supporters there was a chance she would be arrested.

This might win the prize for “least successful publicity stunt ever”, but it places.
