College Allows Transgender Man to Expose Himself to Young Girls

A Washington college said their non-discrimination policy prevents them from stopping a transgender man from exposing himself to young girls inside a women’s locker room, according to a group of concerned parents.

“Little girls should not be exposed to naked men, period,” said David Hacker, senior legal counsel with the Alliance Defending Freedom. A group of concerned parents contacted the legal firm for help.

Hacker said a 45-year-old male student, who dresses as a woman and goes by the name Colleen Francis, undressed and exposed his genitals on several occasions inside the woman’s locker room at Evergreen State College.

Students from nearby Olympia High School as well as children at a local swimming club share locker rooms with the college.

According to a police report, the mother of a 17-year-old girl complained after her daughter saw the transgender individual walking naked in the locker room. A female swim coach confronted the man sprawled out in a sauna exposing himself. She ordered him to leave and called police.

The coach later apologized when she discovered the man was transgendered but explained there were girls using the facility as young as six years old who weren’t used to seeing male genitals.

“They’re uncomfortable with him being in there, her, being in there and are shocked by it,” parent Kristi Holterman told KIRO-TV.

According to the police report, the local district attorney probably will not pursue charges because he said the “criminal law is very vague in this area.”

Francis told KIRO-TV that he was born a man but chose to live as a woman in 2009. Francis said he felt discriminated against after he was told told leave.

“This is not 1959 Alabama,” Francis told the television station. “We don’t call police for drinking from the wrong water fountain.”

Hacker and local parents are outraged over the college’s response to the incident.

“The idea that the college and the local district attorney will not act to protect young girls is appalling,” he said. “What Americans are seeing here is the poisoned fruit of so-called ‘non-discrimination’ laws and policies.”

Placing this man’s proclivities ahead of protecting little girls is beyond unacceptable, Hacker said.

A spokesman for the college did not return calls seeking comment.

Hacker said the college could be held liable for damages if any of the young girls is harmed by the transgendered individual.

“Clearly, allowing a person who is biologically a man to undress and expose himself to young girls places those girls at risk for emotional distress and harm,” he wrote in a letter to the college. “Any reasonable person would view this as dangerous to the young girls involved. The fact that this individual was sitting in plain view of young girls changing into their swimsuits puts you and Evergreen on notice of possible future harm.”

  8. Now this is NOT about the rights of this "man" at all. This is about the effect it will have on minors. These young girls do not need to be exposed to any person whatever their sinful and brain washed mind wants to say they are. The college is at fault for not standing up for the rights of these young girls. We as a nation just went through a case involving sexual misconduct and mistreatment of youth. Why in the world do we choose to be brain dead and assume this will have no affect on someones standards or morals. May God have mercy, I for one am saying this is wrong, it's WRONG. The school should be held liable for this 'criminal law that is not clear'. Use your common sense, have we as a nation become so perverted, that we need to be schooled on 'MORALS 101'?

  9. If he wants to utilize the women's locker room, than he needs to get a sex change operation. Until then he is medically/physically male. By allowing this to happen, they are also allowing current or future sex offenders a possible method to be in a woman's locker room without any repercussions.

  10. I'm all for equal rights. But these places are separated by gender because of the the…well differences between the two. It's not about how you "feel". It's about what you're equipped with. I certainly would not feel comfortable with a man in the ladies room. And I sure wouldn't want one walking around my daughter like that. Now, bathrooms I don't mind so much. They go in a stall and nobody sees. But come one. Walking around naked in a locker room is a completely different situation. It's indecent exposure in any other situation.

  11. for those ppl out there that are ok with this ask yourself how you would feel if a "transgender" exposed him/herself to YOUR 6 year old daughter! Its not such a black and white politically correct issue anymore is it??! This sets a precedence that would allow ANYONE claiming transgender to expose himself in a locker room or womens bathroom –EVEN the perverts PRETENDING to be transgender!! I do have several gay friends and one is a transgender and "he" still uses the ladies bathroom because he knows its not right to use the mens bathroom yet! Because "he" still hasn't physically become a man thru surgery! I support equal rights for all but PLEASE! We need to use some good old-fashioned common sense that appears to be lacking in today's society!!

  12. Marlene Thompson /

    He is NOT TRANSGENDER! HE HAS A PENIS, APPARENTLY. Just because he calls himself a woman, he isn't as long as he has a penis. Once he has surgery, then he is transgender. Currently, he is a tranny.

    • Gina Bennett /

      I beleieve you mean transexual. Transexual describes an individual crossing the gender barriers. Transgender is an umbrella term. Tranny is a term more offensive than all the radfems faces at once.

  13. To call him a pervert is unfair. To say he's a pervert would mean he had perverted intentions, which he probably didn't. He's a man who thinks he's a woman in a man's body. The college needs to set him strait without all this ridiculous zealotry that he needs to use the men's locker room until he gets surgery to get rid of the twig and berries.

  14. Avyn D Trahelion /

    Man, you people will eat any thing up, won't you?

  15. Megan Luke /

    So the majority of people here are willing to agree that having a penis makes you a pervert? And that nudity is an act of violence, that little girls should be taught penises are gross and that the sheer presence of a naked body and a penis means sexual violence?

    • Shelley Luke Powell /

      Yeah, you know – old people are sensitive ;)

    • Kylie Dervaes /

      The phrasing in this article is really frustrating and misleading. He's not EXPOSING himself is he? He's simply using the fascillities as they are intended to be used.

    • Edmond Lapine /

      please think of the children.

    • Becky Blanton /

      Megan, People are willing to agree that having a penis and flashing it around in a women's locker room in front of children is what makes you a pervert. Nudity, unwanted, unappreciated, unwarranted and unwelcome IS an act of violence, and little girls should be taught that inappropriate and discomforting feelings around an adult male penis are flags that signal a boundary violation and that it's OKAY to be offended, frightened and scared if that's how they feel. They should NOT be forced or taught to stuff their feelings because it's not politically correct to feel differently than those forcing their own sexual identity on you. And finally, the sheer presence of a naked body and a penis DOES mean sexual violence to those who have norms NOT like this MAN. But then, you don't really care about that do you?

    • No one said that, what has been said is there is a time and a place and woman have more decency than to run around nude in locker rooms if they have any class at all. No, the human body is beautiful and well designed for the continuation of our species but this is not what this is about

  16. Ranger Bagel If it was one of my kids exposed to this this crap he would end up not having nothing to expose and be in the hospital for a long time. If you are OK with this for your kids ( doubt you have any) I don't care. But if it involves my kids are other kids I could care less what you think. In other words you have no say so when it comes to other peoples kids.

    Lets see if I have this correct. I can dress up like a women use a female name and I can dress and undress in the women's locker room even if there are young girls present and not get arrested. What a deal for sex offenders everywhere. Sandusky screwed up. he should have dressed up like a little boy. This in nothing but a sex offender that has found a way the expose himself to girls young and old with out being arrest. This must be in the sex offenders hand book on how not to get arrested.

  17. Ranger Bagel /

    Hey everyone,

    If you are "liking" my comments — and I see several of you are — then you agree that hatred is unacceptable. I invite you to be brave and stand up against people who would demonize and threaten other human beings who have done nothing but be true to themselves.

    Don't back down just because they're loud. Don't be intimidated because they are cavalier about violence. The only way to stop them is to stand up to them and hold them accountable for their positions. It is not okay to hurt other people. It is not okay to force your standards on people when they've done nothing wrong.

    Fight the Tyranny of the Majority! Fight fear and hate! Long live progress!

    We're going to win, my queers and weirdos. That win will come all the faster if you don't sit back at your computer and think, "Ugh, this people will never change. I'm not going to call them out on advocating violence because they just won't listen." If you've got the time to read these comments, then you've got the time to lend your voice to the fight and show these people that they aren't "right," that they aren't the leaders of tomorrow. They are the relics of the past.

    This world is made of LOVE AND PEACE!

    • You believe it was wrong for the GAY Activist to make girls cry, yet you argue that exposing yourself to kids is fine because it is a lockeroom. Your gender theories are criminal activities hiding behind a slithering lawyer. If you had children you would not open your mouth. It will be a good thing that your genes end with you. Since we are already there, GAY means happy. I am Heterosexual. You are Homosexual. Obviously not GAY. More like lonely

    • Ranger Bagel /

      You're silly. I was joking. I don't think those activists did anything wrong. Those girls cried. Who cares? People cry. They can cry.

      Also, because I don't have children I should probably never say that hitting or raping them is bad. You know, because I have no idea what it's like to raise a kid, clearly I don't understand that if a parent wants to beat the tar out of their kid, they must always be right. Come on.

      There is no crime here. Bust out the actual law this person broke. She was naked in a place where she was told she could be naked. She violated no laws.

      Also, I am not homosexual. Stop projecting. And, by your logic, you should shut your mouth because you are heterosexual. You don't know what it's like to be non-hetero or trans, so you can't say anything about it.

    • HE, HE, HE exposed HIMSELF to young GIRLS. Hiding behind makeup and heels does not change that FACT. I do not care about HIS mental confusion regarding gender. HE can use the room that says MALE like the rest of US. If HE feels uncomfortable, then shower at home like the other MALES who feel uncomfortable in a lockeroom.

      This is not for HIS protection. It is for the CHILDREN. Something you consistently leave out of your argument. If you had a daughter to protect you would understand.

      Do you read the news? In the past month alone several young girls were abducted and murdered. It is not about HIS gender confusion. I could care less if he thinks HE is a spotted toad. It's is about the children.

      Until HE cuts IT off, HE does not get to claim use of the FEMALE restroom for makeup and heels. I choose to wear a tie, who cares.

    • Alana Mailes /

      Stephanie, I'm really proud of you for what you are saying. These people are idiots and it makes me sick to read what they write.

    • This only shows how little insight you really have when it comes to transgender people. It is obvius that you do not understand it, and you will probably never do it either. It makes me sad to think how much time you spend hating on people, instead of learning about why they live the way they do.

    • Come on, Ranger Bagel, think of the children.

    • No nude adult should be hanging around children, period. This is where this person crossed the line. This person knew that there were children present and chose to get nude around them. This persons correct, responsible, adult choice would have been to find a private stall and change there, wearing a towel in the sauna. This person exposed their body to minors. That, my friend, is against the law and completely unacceptable. I don't care who you are or what your affiliation, adults should not be getting nude around minors. If you think that they should be, you are dead wrong.

    • I'm not suggesting violence. But this woman should have proceeded with a little more common sense.

    • Jim Britt /

      Ranger: you are a FOOL! Gender is determined by CHROMOSOMES, PERIOD! I guess I would have the 'right' to come to your home and watch you in the shower! I hope you don't have children because if you do they are in danger

    • This makes me think of the legal carry debate. More people call the cops when they see someone carrying a gun in public spaces. The bill of rights clearly states Americans have the right to bear arms, but people live in a paradigm of fear towards guns. This debate makes me think people live in a paradigm of fear when it comes to genitals, too, though there is no law protecting the right to have genitals. I don't get why having or displaying a penis/vagina makes you more dangerous than a person openly carrying a firearm. This society is very illogical IMO.

    • Jim Britt /

      You hate DECENCY and common sense! You hate moral values and hate the 90% of people that want to protect their children from EVILNESS like mentally retarded "transgender" people who IGNORE biology and science

    • Decency, morals and common sense are all perception-based. In some countries this is considered perfectly normal. In yours it's clearly immoral and 'evil.' I have no idea if 'transgender' makes someone mentally retarded, but I have experience with mentally retarded people, and they are people too. Does being mentally retarded make you evil? Is it your fault if you're mentally retarded? These sorts of arguments don't bode well for the future of humanity because you are blaming the person who has a mental deficiency for their mental deficiency. That in itself could be considered 'evil' since you are, by extension, blaming their 'creator' for their mental deficiency, since God made all people in His image. The debate has little to do with biology and science. This entire debate revolves around morals and perceptions of what is considered socially acceptable. Biology would say humans are animals as well and that no other animal has bothered to 'wear clothes' like humans have, and science would say that based on the resources humans invest in this invention of clothing that it would be illogical to bother with in the summer time or while bathing/hanging out in the sauna. Biology also says that there are animals that will have homosexual relations, so why is that so different for humans (who are a animals as well) to have homosexual relations? I mean you no offense, but your logic is faulty.

    • Jim Britt /

      What gays to is between them and their AIDS doctor! However, when they use UNCONSTITUTIONAL laws to say I have to allow them on my rental property that's where I draw they line. One person's rights can NOT supersede another's!!!

    • Anti-discrimination laws are a bit silly, I agree with you on that. When you force someone to accept someone they don't like to rent their property, that is definitely not a good situation for either person. Then again, that kind of law is a federal mandate of what is to be considered 'decent,' so you get into the murky waters of perception again. Perhaps the government should just stay out of peoples' lives. But then you get a situation where a 'mentally ill' person walks around nude in front of little girls. Do you want the government to be involved in that?

    • This shouldn't be about gender, hate, tolerance, location, regulations or anything other than what it is. It is an adult who exposed their nude body to children. Any adult who exposes himself/herself to minors is wrong. Period. It doesn't matter who or what you are.

    • Ranger Bagel /

      Don't take your kid into an adult locker room.

    • I guess you wouldn't mind if I come 'hang out' in your bathroom. I feel that you would be discriminating against me if you complain.

    • Ranger Bagel /

      My bathroom is my private home. This is a public locker room. You are not required to use that locker room. I have established a rule that nobody may enter my residence without my permission. You may not use my bathroom. If you attempt to use my private bathroom I would have you arrested for trespassing. Additionally, your gender would be irrelevant.

      A public locker room is not the same as a privately-owned bathroom. This locker room was constructed for public use and established rules of equality stating that women can be naked in that locker room, they also established rules that trans women are women.

      You're embracing a logical fallacy. A private residence is not the same as a public locker room.

    just wanted everyone to know that evergreen's motto is "omnia extares" — "let it all hang out!"

  19. NEWS FLASH for 'SHIM'….come try that crap in Central Texas…..you'll get FREE surgery!

  20. If there were not a team of lawyers ready to defend these criminal activities under the pretense of Homosexual Rights this would never happen. Somebody needs to compile a GOOD Lawyer/BAD Lawyer list to apply pressure at the PROBLEM. If you defend scum for money, you are scum.

  21. ok so I'm trans I am not condoning his behave but I see myself as a female and y should I have to use the male locker room just because of what between my legs, I prefer to be called she or her or Callie idk if I was born a guy or not I AM A GIRL no if ands or buts about it just because I have a penis doesn't change the way I feel, so what about females who want to be males y should they be forced to use the female bathroom! now would I do that nooo I wouldn't I would have more modesty then that, but still if I have to use the bathroom I'm going to use the lady's room so for all of u who don't like it can go suck it!

  22. Restrooms should not be labelled MEN or WOMEN. They should be labelled PENIS and VAGINA, and the actual, physical genitalia should determine which restroom is used, because it's hardware dependent. People without penises do not use urinals (at least not very well). This eliminates any concern over gender status.

    So here is what I have to say. You will probably resort to calling me an "idiot," "moron," "nut job," "lunatic," etc. but that's just fine. Ranger Bagel is a friend of mine, and yes, I go to UC Berkeley as well. She's done a good job of saying what needs to be said on sex and gender, but I'd like to add a few things here:

    a. Stop using "the majority of Americans think this, so it must be true" as the basis for any argument at all. Lots of Ancient Romans thought it was fun to crucify people. Lots of Germans thought the Holocaust was a virtuous endeavor. Lots of South Africans though Apartheid was a great idea. "Majority" means nothing.
    b. I saw a few references to lynching in there. Really? Good idea. Bring up a topic that is incredibly sensitive to the entire nation, considering our wonderfully honorable history of justice through lynching.
    c. Here's a thought no one has mentioned yet: How about we just stop bringing our 6 year-old children into locker rooms? For a young kid, seeing a woman's naked body can be just as traumatizing as seeing a man's. For those of you who think that this is a parenting issue, you should know better than to take your child into an adult locker room in the first place.
    d. Any insults to UC Berkeley that I see (and I have seen several) are ignorant. Say what you want about politics, but leave the university alone. It is the #1 public university in the country. I won't even get into the things that our faculty, graduate students, and undergraduate students achieve every day here. Our researchers are responsible for six of the elements on the Periodic Table of the Elements. So to all of you telling her that her "father should ask for his tuition money back" (incredibly offensive, by the way), do your research. Stop basing your opinions on outdated stereotypes from the 1960s and 1970s. They teach the same gender binary theory here as they do in most other top US universities that you wouldn't even think to criticize.

  28. Very perverted of this MAN needing to get his jollies off with the exhibitionism tendencies he harbors for children. Could he be a peeping tom looking for attention? Who knows what his motives are! This is really NOT acceptable behavior in a public setting within the visual area of children! For the life of me I can't understand why people feel an overwhelming need to feed or entertain an obvious troll who sounds as though he has some pent up envie for this person! Of course he could be entertaining himself as we speak as well. There is need to feed the troll as he is NOT going to change his OPINIONS over an internet comment section, so why waste your time trying to get him to see things your way. This man in the news story is a pervert and seeks attention. My Opinion! and now I will move on!

  29. Kelli Perry Richardson /

    The contempt which Ranger Bagel "speaks" with is palpable. Only uber-liberal, professional students from Berkley could look at this obvious example of sexual deviancy and try to sell it as normal. You're more worried about a grown MANS desire to pleasure himself than protecting young girls. Bet you're a member of NOW and support Planned Parenthood too. When will we start putting the protection of innocent children before the desires of grown adults?

    Wow…just wow. Apparently a lot of folks think it's okay to show his genitals to young girls ages 18 and younger just because he's a transgender and sincerely thinks he's a woman. I have seen two men do the same to me. One actually molested me at age 6. The other was trying to entice me to have sex with him, at age 14. Both incidents severely affected my psychological health. It has taken a long time for me to see the beauty in men but that would've happened much more quickly if didn't have these traumatic experiences. Ask any parent how she or he feels about their daughters being exposed to a man's genitalia on a regular basis. 9 times out of 10 I bet they would say they're not okay with that. Some parents take longer than other parents to discuss what generalized are for because they themselves aren't comfortable with it yet. How many more broken generations must be created before children are protected from situations they cannot handle? All I know is that I would never support this college in any way, shape, or form. This is truly disgusting, in my opinion but I do respect the viewpoints of others.

  33. Ranger bagel, so its cool for young ladies to be messes up in the head by this persons own identity crisis? This only leads to more psychological and emotional problems for others… Not to mention that this type of behavior is against the laws of the Creator!

  34. Thank you Omar!!!!

  35. If this person is transgendered, I would assume they would want to be seen as female. Why then would you be lying around naked with a shlong hanging out. Why is it everone else's problem. Have some respect for yourself and others. I see a person with an agenda.

  36. Just a Devil's Advocate question…. Where does this He/She belong? I agree not in the girls locker room but I'm sure He/She wouldn't belong in the boys locker room either because the guys in there would discriminate. Should they create a Transgender locker room? Just a question!

  37. Say what you want but in many, "progressive" causes, I actually see where Islamists are coming from. Just saying…

  38. He is exactly right, it is not 1959 Alabama. BUT if it were my daughters that were exposed to this idiot I would kick his @$$ like it is 2012 Alabama. Sexual orientation aside, a penis is a penis and not something for young girls to be forced to see.

  39. This is what happens when non-discrimination laws are passed….the wicked are enabled to harm children, and the judgement of God is called for.

    • And yet politicians, clerks, cops, even parents are so afraid of being politically-incorrect that they let this kind of horror go on without protest. Sigh.

    The more Leftist/Liberal/Progressive/Socialist minded this country becomes…the more WICKED and depraved it becomes.

  41. This article is the sort of thing that validate murderers hatred for trans people. Don't care about us? Next up, gays, black people, then Jewish, then you for whatever makes you unique. Then you will care, but because we are all dead or in the closet you will be standing alone against Faux sensationalist populist 'journalism' like this.
    Still don't believe it could happen to you? History repeats to those who demand ignorance over enlightenment.

    • I was about to click the link. Then, I saw the source. Of Course :Fox News. The creators of lies and deceit. Anything to discredit, and mislead the public about the truth.

  42. If "he" is indeed transgendered, then what would you have him do then? Go in the men's locker room and be beaten up? I personally think she should have been more discreet about it, but who knows? We weren't there. He could be a pervert who enjoys CD and exhibitionism. Or she could have been a genuine transgendered person who just wanted to change her clothes. The article doesn't give us enough information.

  43. This creep is bouncing around the ladies locker room in full Monty in front of six year old girls. I don't care what he "thinks he is," if he is wearing the family jewels below the belt on the outside, he should be in the men's locker room. What is the matter with people?

  44. Berkeley…what a shock…when 'studies show' something that is totally at odds with common sense, those studies are almost always wrong. I believe it was Voltaire who said, "The problem with common sense is that it just isn't all that common". Look it up.

  45. We have cures for perverts in Oklahoma!

  46. Colleen Francis is a selfish prick. "She" took advantage of a law that was put there to protect "her" individual rights and used it to spit all over others idea of common courtesy. "She" also opened a door for child predators and molesters for more opportunities. "She" claims "she" is being discriminated against yet "she" shows no concern at all for others. "She" could have easily talked to the staff at the college about "her" problem and get a solution that would have been best for all, but instead "she" puts the feelings of children into the trash! Most young girls are a bit shy about changing even in front of other females, but to be almost naked and suddenly realizing there is a fully grown man there can be mentally damaging. Colleen Francis is only thinking of "her" self and trying to compare this situation to a raciest issue from years ago just proves how self minded "she" is. The two have nothing in common at all!

  47. If anyone is or knows a transgender, please let us know one thing: Do they support her actions or are they ashamed by the level of stupidity Colleen Francis showed to address this issue?

  48. Gender Identity laws allow men to end-run laws that allow sex-segregated facilities like locker rooms. Sadly, Left wing, Women's groups, and GLBT orgs are ok with this. We are not. http://bugbrennan.com/2012/11/03/watching-a-car-accident-in-slow-motion/

  49. I can't believe a blog as major as Fox and a contributor as well known as Todd Starnes is calling this guy "transgender." From what the piece says, the person was born male and is still anatomically male, but only dresses and acts as a female. That it a transvestite, not a transgender. A transgender person is someone who was born one gender and had surgery to change their gender. This is a transvestite and he should never be allowed into the locker with women. FTR the same should go for a true transgender peron.
