Paris transgender woman 'humiliated' at protest

A transgender woman has spoken out after a video went viral of her being attacked near a rally in central Paris against Algeria's ailing president.

Julia has described being targeted by three men in the Place de la République.

"You're a man, you're not going anywhere, you're not coming past," she was told, as she was pushed and punched while trying get through the crowd.

...

One man ruffled her hair, while a girl draped in an Algerian flag came to try to help Julia. After the girl moved on, a man repeatedly punched Julia while another could be seen kicking at her.

Some in the crowd also threw beer.  And the police came.  Video below via the BBC story.

I remember some time ago an article about an all-gay mosque being opened in Paris.

I was going to post this story, but the more I read, the less I cared about his travails. This guy dressed like a woman was mocked and harassed by Muslim protesters - probably not the safest place to be walking (that goes for much of Paris, for that matter).
