In 2009, a police officer stopped me after I, a white transgender man, used a single-stall men's bathroom in a Whole Foods in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.The officer told me that he "should" arrest me for using the men's room.When I explained to him that I identify as male, he informed me that if he arrested me, I would have to "get a note from my surgeon, saying that I am whatever the hell I say I am."Though I was ultimately not arrested, the incident left me shaken and disturbed.
A Sat, study studied this question.
