I should kick this off by noting that I don’t frequent Hooters. Mostly due to the obvious. Also, from what I recall the one time I went there with friends in college, their wings suck. Don’t come at me.
But let’s be honest: with plenty of chicken joints like Buffalo Wild Wings and Wing Stop, people aren’t heading to Hooters for the boneless bites and burgers, no matter how much they might swear otherwise. You go to Hooters for the scantily clad girls in skin-tight white t-shirts and tiny orange shorts.
Emphasis on the word "girls." Not "mentally ill men in crotch-hugging briefs."
Yet that’s exactly what one dude thinks should qualify as a Hooters girl, as he’s now suing the restaurant for refusing to hire him as a “transwoman,” claiming discrimination.
Brandy Livingston, who had notably been a regular customer of the Albany, New York location even before he began “transitioning," has filed a lawsuit against the restaurant he used to frequent after the franchise after he says he applied three times in response to job listings at the store - all unsuccessfully. He also claims employees at the Albany Hooters “would use male pronouns. They would refer to me as he.”
Because, you know, he is.

Livingston also claims he overheard an employee and a manager talking about how they don’t like having to allow Livingston to use the women’s bathroom, an accommodation required by state law.
After being turned down for a waitress job, the man said he was told by a manager that Hooters doesn’t hire based on experience but rather “personality,” adding that “there’s an image that needs to be met.”
Like, say, a solid C, preferably with a second X chromosome somewhere in the mix.
After getting hit with the lawsuit and subsequent investigation by the New York Division of Human Rights, Hooters responded via their lawyers claiming that Livingston had been asked not to return to the restaurant prior to him suing, alleging he had made multiple explicit sexual comments to servers - including asking servers to marry him and discussing masturbation - before suddenly deciding he wanted to be a woman.
By the way, here's Livingston, in case you were wondering if he can successfully pass as a woman. I'll leave it up to you to decide...but yeah. That's gonna be a "no" from me.

Livingston and Hooters will face off in a hearing next September, where the restaurant will learn if they did, in fact, break state law by refusing to hire a man with male genitalia to dress in skin-tight bootyshorts and serve beer to their customers.
