DC restaurant apologizes after expelling transgender woman for using women's bathroom

A Washington, D.C., restaurant issued an apology to a transgender woman who said she was kicked out for trying to use the women’s bathroom.

Charlotte Clymer, a communications staffer for the Human Rights Campaign, wrote about the incident on a Twitter thread Saturday afternoon.

Clymer wrote that she was at Cuba Libre Restaurant and Rum Bar on Friday night for a bachelorette party when a staff member asked for her ID.

She said he told her the identification needed to read “female” in order to use the women’s restroom.

Charlotte Clymer🏳️‍🌈 ✔ @cmclymer Last night, I was told by the manager of @CubaLibreDC that I couldn't use the women's restroom, and after challenging his discrimination with D.C. law and responding to his threat of calling the police w/ "please do so", I was forcibly removed from the restaurant. (thread)

Charlotte Clymer🏳️‍🌈 ✔ @cmclymer Replying to @cmclymer He insists I need to show my ID, I tell him that's not happening, and demand to see what law he's citing. He refuses to show me the law and instead says, "You being in there will make women uncomfortable." We're in the way of everyone, and a lot of people are watching this.

Charlotte Clymer🏳️‍🌈 ✔ @cmclymer Replying to @cmclymer A bouncer came up and said I need to be reasonable. I told him the situation and said I would not be leaving until the cops are called. No chance. I explained the law to him, and he continued his condescending plea for me to leave. He then grabbed my arm and pushed me out.

The restaurant acknowledged the incident on Twitter late Saturday.

“We are extremely sorry for the incident that occurred at our restaurant last night,” the restaurant wrote in a letter addressed to Clymer.

Charlotte Clymer, you poor gal.

You should visit one of the many fine Muslim restaurants. Maybe wear a veil to show respect as you enter YOUR restroom at the restaurant.

If I had been in the bathroom when a weirdo like this came in, I would either have left as quickly as possible or I myself would have thrown it out myself, on grounds that I felt threatened. And watch me patronize such a restaurant again...well, don’t hold your breath. At least kosher restaurants don’t have this kind of stuff going on.

Kind of Matthew Modine-ish, too.

See? Sanders should have claimed she felt like a man that night.

Heads on the left would have been doing 360s ala “the Exorcist” and it would have been AWESOME.

“She” was Charles Clymer until 5 months ago.

Charles Clymer was a darling of the left until women decided he was creepy. Now he IS a woman and real woman can’t get away from him.

One of the women in attendance of the party he was attending must have ratted him out.

Think of the lawsuit anyone could file if one was challenged at the restroom and was actually of the gender of the room IT was trying to enter.

My ex found the ‘perfect storm’ with the ‘senior discount’.

She would get all huffy if questioned and if NOT offered, would raise hell about it.

Of course she was/is one who definitely would biatch if you were to hang her with a new rope.

Who are they going to apologize when a man in a dress rapes a woman in the women’s bathroom?


The science is settled. A penis in a dress is not dangerous.

There will soon be a separation for citizenship. Check Matthew 24 or 1 Thessalonians 4 et al

The radical progressive left is destroying American culture and civility.

Wasn’t he a left guard for the Terps?

There used to a be time when a nancy boy wouldn’t dare set foot outside his mother’s bedroom dressed like that. I hope those days come again. If you have a Y chromosome you’re not a girl, period! Even if you slice off Mr. Happy. You need to use the proper bathroom, ideally the one you have at home!

It’s passed time to stop indulging this particular mental illness. We don’t indulge schizophrenics who think they are medieval knights or Napoleon. People that want their arm or leg cut off cause they “feel” disabled (yes, this is a thing) are rightly regarded as cuckoo for Cocoa puffs.

I heard they are attacking Neilsen’s home. Time for water cannons, maybe filled with vinegar.

So it’s OK to kick a Trump staff person out, but you have to bow down and worship the dickchoppers?
