It is a damning indictment of our society when the genuine concerns of a young girl are dismissed and disregarded by the very institutions that are supposed to protect her. The fact that it is even legal for a grown man to masquerade as a woman and enter private spaces reserved for women—and that this twisted, delusional notion is given even the slightest semblance of credibility—is nothing short of a mockery of our “civilized” society.
Recently, a 66-year-old man identifying himself as Christynne Wood was spotted in the women’s locker room of a San Diego area YMCA, where he was observed by Rebecca Philipps, a 17-year-old female, who was forced to hide behind a shower curtain in fear for her safety.
“As I was showering after my workout, I saw a naked man in the women’s locker room,” Philipps testified before city council. “I was terrified and had to hide behind the flimsy curtain until he left.”
It is a sad state of affairs when the legitimate fears of a teenager are dismissed and dismissed in favor of catering to the whims of a mentally ill individual who can’t even determine which locker room they belong in, or what kind of swimwear is appropriate for the pool.
Make no mistake, we are living in a world where madness holds sway, and rational, sane individuals are fast becoming the minority.
