調べに男は入った事実は認めた上で、「戸籍上は男だが、気持ちが女性だから入った。当時お腹を下していたので3回ぐらい女子トイレに入った」と話していて、警察が詳しい経緯を調べています。
According to the investigation, the man confirmed the facts and stated "my family register says I am a man, but I went in because I feel like a woman. At that time, I went in to use the ladies' bathroom about three times." Police are continuing the investigation into the details.
For added context getting one’s gender changed on their family registry in Japan is not an easy task - it requires that the person have (expensive) gender affirmation surgery, be sterilised, be unmarried and have no children under the age of 18. There are many valid reasons for a person not to pursued (or have no intention of pursuing) gender change on their family registry.
transwoman
This one. Even adding the qualifier “not started transitioning” may not be true because lets be real the police have not traditionally been charitable to transpeople.
Anecdotal evidence points to “straight man who wanted attention for some reason.” It’s always a guy near or past retirement age and they argue or make trouble about something. A pastime.
How many of them are willing to risk serious jail time and/or are willing to outright lie to the police?
