Protesters clashed outside a spa in the Koreatown neighborhood of Los Angeles after a recent customer posted an online video of herself ridiculing staff for allowing a transgender woman to change in the women's changing area. 
The viral video, posted in late June, was taken by a woman who apparently opposed the existence of transgender people altogether. 
She attacked the employee behind the front desk at Wi Spa, claiming she and other cisgender women—even though she was alone—were "highly offended" by the transgender woman's presence in the facilities.
When the staff attempted to tell the woman why they allow transgender customers—it's the law in California—to use the facilities that align with their gender identity, the woman refused to listen.
"I see a di**. It let's me know he's a man. He's a man."Later, when a bystander attempted to intervene in defense of the transgender customer, the woman shot it down immediately, saying, "there is no such thing as transgender."
When the video was posted on Twitter by a fellow bigot with his own transphobic commentary, it quickly went viral.
A woman confronted the staff at the Wi Spa in Los Angeles after a man walked into the women's section with his genitals hanging out in front of girls. He identified as a "woman." The employees said he had a right to do that. The employees say that it's the law. \n\nPart 1pic.twitter.com/m1VbU0WU6A

The widely seen video, which was even praised by Fox News' Tucker Carlson, galvanized far-right, anti-LGBTQ people to gather outside the spa for a protest a few days later. 
But when LGBTQ-supporting folks heard about that, they came out to counter protest. 
That's when things got very heated, as another video captured.

According to NBC News, Los Angeles Police Department Officer Frank Lopez shared that the protest event was deemed an unlawful assembly.
One person sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was taken to a nearby medical facility. People who saw reports of the clashes were filled with commentary. 
Mainly, they were critical of how it all began.

        Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Sep 12, 2025
Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."
Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women. 
Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!
But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
