Summary
Marcy Rheintgen, a 20-year-old transgender college student, was arrested at the Florida State Capitol after intentionally entering a women’s restroom in protest of the state’s transgender bathroom law.
Civil rights lawyers say it is the first known arrest under such laws in any U.S. state.
Rheintgen faces a misdemeanor trespassing charge and could face up to 60 days in jail.
Florida is one of only two states to criminalize such acts.
They is gender neutral I thought and completely valid when talking about a third person regardless of their gender.
My understanding, and I’m by no means an expert, is that they/them would be used for an unknown gender, or for someone that has chosen those as their preferred pronouns. But in this case, the article and discussion is about a woman, so I think she/her would be the preferred choice.
