Had a better day t0day, but yesterday something happened whilst i was out and i have NEVER been as scared as i was......truly awful it was. I'd been out at our annual 2 day air-show & popped into a local hotel( the HATFIELD) to have a drink & use the ladies loos which i'd done several times before with no problems. I'd done the same this time, been to the loo & was going back to the bar when this person ( manager) asked if he could have a word. He said to me, " do you cross-dress"...& i said i lived like this for 4 yrs. He said that peeps had complained to him about me using the ladies, so i said " where am i supposed to go?" to which he replied " Use the gents". I said " Theres no way i'm using them".....next thing i know he's in my face sayin " get out of my hotel" but i refused as i had done nothing wrong. He stormed 0ff & got a bouncer who asked me to go but i said no as i hadn't done anythin wrong. This bouncer then proceeded to THROW me out of the hotel door, my wig went flying & i was left in a heap on the floor. It then got much WORSE when the police saw what had happened & they consequently arrested ME even though i was the victim of some quite blatant trans-phobic abuse. They kept me in a cell for almost 7 hrs..i tell you i have never EVER been so scared in all my life. It was 10:30 before i was released with a caution. it was either i accept that or it would have gone to court which i didnt want. Consequently, i now have a record and its totally FK'D up my employment prospects which are now Zero. All this because some arrogant homophobic sh*ts took exception to me using the loo's. There is one option i have which i'm gonna take & that is, i know a local judge ( through the voluntary work i do). i'm going to speak to him & see whether i could sue the hotel for discrimination. I'm not sure it'll work but its gotta be worth a try. After all, i was only trying to live my life as best i can & i get all this sh*t which i did NOT deserve!!
