A court has heard disturbing claims from a man who says he was deceived by a date he met on Snapchat.
The alleged victim told jurors he believed 21-year-old Ciara Watkin was “fully a girl.” He said she even claimed to be on her period to stop him from touching below the waist. “As far as I was concerned she was a female,” he explained.
The pair drank together before moving to the bedroom, where sexual activity took place. Later, Watkin reportedly admitted by phone, “I’m trans. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you.” The man told police he was left shocked, adding, “It makes me feel like it’s taken away my manhood.”
Prosecutors say Watkin concealed her male genitalia, stuffed her bra with clothing, and misled the man. She denies two counts of sexual assault and one count of assault by penetration.
The trial continues, raising difficult questions about consent, honesty, and trust in modern dating.
