That Takes Huevos . . .
On virtually any other day you might — might — be excused from making this mistake:
Posted: July 3rd, 2007 | Filed under: Jerk MoveA bouncer at a popular West Village restaurant ejected a female customer from the women’s bathroom after last month’s gay pride march because she looked too masculine, the woman charged yesterday.
Khadijah Farmer, 27, said the incident happened June 24 at Caliente Cab Company on Seventh Avenue South, where she had gone with her girlfriend and another friend to have dinner after the march.
Farmer said she was using the bathroom when a male bouncer burst in and banged on the stall door, saying a customer had complained that there was a man in the women’s room.
“I said, ‘I am a woman and I am where I am supposed to be,'” Farmer said. “I offered to show him some identification. I was told that’s neither here nor there.”
Caliente Cab Company, a Mexican restaurant known for its large margaritas and Checker cab decor, did not immediately return a call for comment.
Farmer said the bouncer escorted her to her table and forced her party to pay their check and leave.
