"I shouldn't have to pull my pants down to prove I'm not breaking this law."
From: NewNowNext
Thanks in part to North Carolina’s House Bill 2, using a public bathroom has become a controversial subject — so much so, that genderqueer model Rain Dove has decided to forego the restroom altogether and just wear a diaper around instead.
In a political statement disguised as a joke, Rain posted a video of her walking around the city doing various activities while wearing nothing but a diaper on the lower half of her body.
“What’s happening in North Carolina is not okay,” she writes, after we’re treated to shots of her in her diaper at the laundromat and exercising in the park.
“I shouldn’t have to pull my pants down to prove I’m not breaking this law,” she continues. “I shouldn’t have to show my birth certificate to go to the bathroom. And the government shouldn’t assume my ’sex’ based on what I look like.”
After the diaper montage, the camera cuts to single shots of random men and women, and even a small child, asking what they’re “supposed to look like.”
“This is not just a trans issue, this is a human rights issue that chips away at what makes us human,” she states near the end of the segment.
