Summary

Walmart fired Dani Davis, a 6’4" cisgender woman, after a man who mistook her for transgender verbally threatened her in a women’s restroom at a Florida store.

Davis, visibly shaken, reported the March 14 incident to her immediate supervisor but was fired for not informing salaried management, allegedly creating a “security risk.”

Davis called the firing discriminatory. After viral backlash, Walmart offered to reinstate her with back pay.

Davis, a longtime employee, is uncertain about returning, citing fears of a hostile work environment.

    literally nothing to do with all lives matter. I haven’t seen so many brain broken takes in a row in so long.

      Or you might just be an idiot

      Stop minimizing transphobia and misogyny both by equating them.

        that’s not minimizing either. you’re just taking offense for no reason. saying hotdog is a sandwich wouldn’t take anything away from either term.
