I know this isn't in the theme of the nhs and thank god for Karen
Standing up to this man 'rose'
I'm genuinely so sorry she's had to stand up,be counted and reveal her abuse-we're not the ones that need educating
About 10 years ago I worked at a maccies up North
I started at the same time as a man (that I'll call malcom)
He was,well,a bit odd but as it takes all types to make a world,I was friendly with him (not friends,but I do believe everyone should be treated with dignity and respect)
I'd been there about 6 months when malcom came to work,wearing a skirt,tights and a very visible bra (I can't explain properly but you could see it through his blouse) and calling himself 'gemma'
I could squeeze 'Gemma' out at a push but a lot of people refused and got warnings from the bosses
We ladies had a rule-you left the toliet as you'd want to find it-this was a spoken rule,made very clear within us women and we all stuck to it
The blokes loo was next door and a disabled next to that (the disabled was always spotless but I wouldn't know about the lads)
Malcom (as gemma) started using our toilet (and the bosses told us to suck it up) and coming out with that smirk on his face and leaving the most horrendous mess-shit caked up the bowl and piss all over the floor-it would be stinking and swimming in piss (he would come out,smirk in place and scam the room for our faces)
We all got together and went to the bosses-everyone understood he needed to use a toliet but we didn't want him in our-there was a blokes loo next door or to use the disabled (that wasn't open to the public-staff only)
They refused to stop him-we where told to clear up his mess and to stop moaning as if they had a word,it would hurt his lady feelings and they where scared he'd take them to court
28 of us quit within the month (I was one of them-one lady was so disgusted, she was handing in her notice but died the day before she got the chance,so technically 29 of us)
21 of us where women
He was all over Facebook with that smirk and gloating that he was now a woman and we couldn't stop him using our toilets as he had lady feelings had grown his hair,wore lipstick and a bra
And what really was the icing on the cake was we lived not far from each other-we caught the same bus
He was having treatment on the nhs and had a free bus pass as work was on the way to the hospital
The same route cost me £60 a month (I was on minimum wage and it was a squeeze on my budget)
The nhs should never have paid for fuck all-its for health care not pandering to this shite (the same hospital refused to treat my friends cancer due to budget cuts-she had to go to one 20 miles away) but could pay for his lady feelz
As far as I'm aware,he's still on fb,with that smirk and telling the world that only his feelings matter and fuck women
