A long simmering dispute over the use of the women's bathroom by a transsexual member of Italy's Parliament erupted into a full scale battle on Friday

Elisabetta Gardini, a member of the right-of-center opposition, got into a shouting match with Vladimir Luxuria, the first transsexual elected to a European Parliament when Gardini walked into the washroom and discovered Luxuria emerging from a stall.

"You can't use this lavatory. This is the women's bathroom," Luxuria says Gardini yelled at her.
