If you are looking for a more secure and safe trans space, we suggest you visit https://hexbear.net/c/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns. While we will try our best, lemmy.ml/c/transgender is far more open to the fediverse, and also to trolls. One of the site admins of lemmy.ml, nutomic, is also a transphobe, while hexbear is ran mostly by trans people and has a very active trans community.

In their phone call, the woman testified, Carruthers told her there was no one on staff who would be comfortable providing services to "someone like you." Carruthers denied using that phrase or misgendering A.B., but said he didn't have a staff member who could provide "male waxing services."

Well men get waxed somewhere so that's BS. Hair is Hair!

Yea they surely had someone there who has done or does male waxing. Male swimmers get waxed before swim meets, I used to work with a kid that was on his college’s swim team and he had to get waxed before every meet and had to be completely hairless except for eyebrows/scalp hair obviously
