Vladimir Luxuria, who is trans, was briefly barred from using the women’s restroom when she took her seat in Italy's Parliament in 2006.

Summary

Sarah McBride, the first openly transgender U.S. congresswoman, faces backlash for restroom access as House Republicans push to restrict facilities based on biological sex, specifically targeting her.

Former Italian MP Vladimir Luxuria, who faced similar discrimination in 2006, called the issue “rank politics” aimed at generating division and hate.

Polish MP Anna Grodzka also faced verbal attacks and misgendering during her tenure, underscoring how such tactics are used to politicize transgender rights.

Critics argue this reflects broader Republican strategies that contributed to recent electoral successes.

    I don’t give a fuck who’s pissing beside me. It’s not arousing or sexual. These sick fucks are fetishists who want a trans woman in their bathroom. That’s why they watch so much trans porn.
