Activists Corner Sen. Kyrsten Sinema in Bathroom, Viral TikTok's 'Couch Guy,' and Differences Between Men and Women

Pro-amnesty activists followed Sen. Kyrsten Sinema into a ladies' room at Arizona State University over the weekend to demand that she support fellow Democrats' $3.5 trillion social spending bill. 

Video of the intruders lecturing Sinema, D-Ariz., from outside a closed stall door--while other women went about their personal business--quickly went viral. 

"Yesterday's behavior was not legitimate protest," Sinema said in a public statement. "It is unacceptable for activist organizations to instruct their members to jeopardize themselves by engaging in unlawful activities such as gaining entry to closed university buildings, disrupting learning environments, and filming students in a restroom." The Constitution grants all Americans the right to peacefully protest and petition the government, but doing so inside a restroom and on camera left many raising concerns over lawmakers' privacy. 

On today’s edition of the "Problematic Women" podcast, we've got what you need to know about Sinema’s interaction with the protesters as well as the status of the $3.5 trillion spending bill backed by President Joe Biden and most other congressional Democrats.

Also on today’s show, we discuss a viral TikTok video that raises concerns over the privacy of young people. Plus, over the weekend NASCAR fans joined a trend of obscene chants at sports events directed at the president. What does the situation tell us about today's political climate?

We also explain the findings of a new study concluding that testosterone suppression isn't enough to level the playing field between men and women. Read the full study here: https://equalityinsport.org/docs/300921/Guidance%20for%20Transgender%20Inclusion%20in%20Domestic%20Sport%202021.pdf.

And as always, we crown our Problematic Woman of the Week.
