Would you kick here out of a woman's bathroom?

Meet Khadijah Farmer. Last June, 28-year-old Khadijah attended a Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Pride march in New York City. After the march, Khadijah and some friends went to the Caliente Cab Company restaurant in Manhattan's West Village to grab a bite to eat. But when Khadijah excused herself to go to the ladies' room . . . things got ugly. According to Khadijah, a restaurant employee approached her and told her she wasn't allowed to be in the ladies' room . . . because she was too manly-looking. So Khadijah sued the restaurant for discrimination . . . and yesterday, the suit was settled out of court for $35,000. The restaurant will also change its corporate non-discrimination policy to include "gender identity". Khadijah says she's happy the restaurant decided to do the right thing. Quote, "People come in all shapes and sizes, and they shouldn't be discriminated against because they don't match someone's expectations of how masculine or feminine they should be." Would you kick her out of a woman's bathroom?  And doesn't she look a bit like Wayne Brady?
