Restaurant Uses Pre- And Post-Transition Caitlyn Jenner Photos As Bathroom Signs
Huffington Post ^ | November 3, 2017 | Jenna Amatulli

An editor in Dallas shared a disturbing photo Monday of the transphobic bathroom signs currently in use at a local restaurant.

Dallas Morning News editor Dom DiFurio posted an image of the bathroom doors at Dodie’s Place Cajun Bar & Grill. The doors were decorated with photos of transgender celebrity Caitlyn Jenner, pre- and post-transition, to indicate the men’s and women’s rooms, respectively.

The women’s room featured a Vanity Fair cover of Jenner and the men’s room had an image of Jenner when she won the Olympic gold in the decathlon at the 1976 Montreal Games.

According to the restaurant’s Facebook account, the photos of Jenner have been in use since at least August:

DiFurio told the Daily Dot that the restaurant isn’t “seated in a progressive area” and that he “wouldn’t consider it a particularly great place to be LGBTQ.”

Using Jenner’s photographs in this way trivializes the internal struggle and gender dysphoria many transgender individuals face. Being transgender does not mean that someone was simply once one gender and is now another. Their emotional, psychological and physical experiences are far more complex than these bathroom doors could ever reflect.

What’s more, hate against the transgender community remains deep and widespread ― so much so that one study found that transgender adults were “14 times more likely to think about suicide and 22 times more likely to attempt suicide than the general public,” according to United Press International.

HuffPost has reached out to Dodie’s Place for comment, and the restaurant indicated it is preparing a statement on the signs.

It’s the PERFECT idea in today’s politically correct society!

I’m always amazed that women head off to bathrooms together. As a guy, the thought of heading toward the bathroom with anyone just says total “yuck”..... but I guess women love the sisterhood.

To me, it looks like they’re putting out the welcome mat to transgender “women”. I guess they were supposed to put a bearded lady on the men’s room door.

Would seem to be very helpful for the “reading” challenged among the Progressives!

The writer seems to think that the incredibly high suicide rate among these freaks is due to external factors...couldn’t possibly be because of their own messed up emotional and psychological state, I guess. It’s always somebody else’s fault....

Or maybe it's because they're certifiably mentally ill.

"What’s more, hate against the transgender community remains deep and widespread ― so much so that one study found that transgender adults were “14 times more likely to think about suicide and 22 times more likely to attempt suicide than the general public,” according to United Press International." the hate is from their own insides, which deceives them to think they are a gender they are not.

There is nothing to talk about in a men’s room,
absolutely nothing. Maybe an ‘Excuse me’ if you push the exit door open and accidentally hit somebody in the schnozz with the moving door.
