Sexually Harassing 34 Women, Exiled From Capitol Building
snip> For your daily dose of outrageous Republican hypocrisy, look no further than the state of Tennessee, where a Republican lawmaker is working tirelessly to strip transgender/queer Americans of their bathroom rights. House Bill 2414 has been co-sponsored by state Rep. Jeremy Durham, on the grounds that women would be protected from the non-existent harassment and assault of men pretending to be transgender in order to use the womens bathroom.
The state legislature of Tennessee would be much better off passing a bill to protect women from the harassment of Jeremy Durham, who has been exiled from the House in response to allegations that he sexually harassed thirty-four different women. House Speaker Beth Harwell had Durhams office moved across the street and limited his access to the House building after Attorney General Herbert Slatery issued a warning that declared Durham a continuing risk to unsuspecting women who are employed by or interact with the legislature.

(61,695 posts)Men who rape or harass women usually don't bother with claiming they are transgender, or that they like to cross-dress. They just rape or harass women without that "fuss".
