Transphobic Island
麦基诺岛国家公园的点评
点评：FYI/warning - Shepler's Ferry & Mackinac island is extremely transphobic.
I had the wonderful pleasure to see Mackinac island again this week. I was an employee 8 years ago. This time I brought along my significant other, that is retired Army.
When we first got to Mackinac City, everything was fine. But when I got in line for the Shepler's Ferry, I was asked to change my clothes! They told me that it was a dress code violation without any explanation! I checked the code, no such such thing.
I told them that I felt uncomfortable, and didn't like the treatment I was receiving. Then they walked away. 5 minutes later a young man directed me to my luggage to change my top! I was wearing jeans, and a summer top. I asked him if this was discrimination going on. Because no one else had to do this but me, the trans woman among what seemed to be a very conservative crowd.
No answer.
We arrived on the island.
The whole trip was bizzare.
I am anishanabe, and I came back to the island for ceremony, cleansing and healing. I barely got this. I felt like if I didn't have my significant other with me, that my life would have been placed in serious jeopardy. The Island didn't seem this dangerous last time. Even an old friend from the island told me to be safe when we arrived.
As soon as the workers of the island heard my lower voice, 90% of them would look down and act bizzare until the next customer. We even had a few horse people scream at us to move. Very rude.
When we took the return ferry 3 days later, I had seen a woman with the same top as me get off the ferry on Mackinac island!
I will go to the island in the future, but clearly on a homemade canoe, alone.
I hope that this, " Culture Center" will reclaim its roots someday.
Thank you.

翻译：仅供参考/警示：Shepler’s渡轮及麦基诺岛极度恐跨。
本周，我有幸再次造访麦基诺岛。8年前我曾在那里工作。这次我带上了我的伴侣，他是一名已退役的陆军士兵。
刚抵达麦基诺城时一切正常。但当我排队准备乘坐Shepler’s渡轮时，却被要求更换衣服！他们称我违反了着装规定，却未给出任何解释！我查阅了相关规定，根本不存在这样的规定。我告诉他们我感觉不自在，也不喜欢自己受到的对待。然后他们就走开了。5分钟后，一个年轻男子指给我看我的行李，让我去换上衣！我当时穿着牛仔裤和一件夏季上衣。我问他这是否属于歧视行为。因为除了我——这个身处看似非常保守的群体中的跨性别女性之外，其他人都无需这么做。
没有回应。
我们抵达了岛上。
整个旅程都十分怪异。
我是阿尼希纳贝人。我回到岛上是为了举行仪式、净化身心并疗愈自己。我勉强做到了这些。我感觉如果没有伴侣陪在身边，我的生命就会陷入极大的危险之中。上次来时，这座岛似乎并没有这么危险。甚至岛上的一位老朋友在我们抵达时也叮嘱我要小心。
岛上的工作人员一听到我低沉的嗓音，90%的人都会低下头，表现得举止怪异，直到下一位顾客出现。甚至有几个养马的人冲我们大喊，让我们离开。真是没礼貌。
三天后我们乘渡轮返回时，我看到一个穿着和我同款上衣的女子在麦基诺岛上下了船！
以后我还会去那个岛，不过肯定是独自一人，划着自制的独木舟去。
希望这个“文化中心”有朝一日能重拾其本真。
谢谢。
