Protesters Clash After Trans Man Exposes Himself in Spa to Women & Children

Protests erupted Saturday outside a California spa where a transgender "woman" allegedly exposed his male genitals to children, teens and adults in the women’s area.

Tensions rose Saturday between protestors and counter-protestors in Los Angeles over a spa incident involving a transgender person.

Last week, a woman complained to staff at Wi Spa in Koreatown after a "transgender woman" disrobed in a designated women's section of the spa.

"It's okay for a man to go into the women's section, show his penis around other women, young little girls under age, your spa, Wi Spa, condoned that?" a female patron asked staff in a video that went viral on Twitter. "He is not a female."

A staff member responded that the facility could not discriminate against the woman based on her gender identity, sparking further outrage among some customers. Another woman patron was shown in the video demanding her money back and vowing to not return to the spa.

The video sparked demonstrators to flock to Wi Spa - some there to protest against the spa and some who showed up to defend the transgender woman's rights.

Exchanges broke out between the two groups, with some quarrels escalating to punches.
