Because all the conversation I’ve seen has been against Trans Women going to women’s restrooms. Which is strange to me because, according to the twisted concept of TERFs, Trans men are not men (even though they are), but “women”.

Aren’t they worried about “women” going into men’s bathrooms?

    Every time a women came into the men’s bathroom I just assumed it was urgent and that the women’s bathroom was occupied or closed. Never had any different thought.

    Edit: I don’t think any sane man would care if a female, trans, cyborg or alien would go pee.

      I remember being at a bar… Queue out the door for the ladies, mens almost empty.

      One of the girls in the queue said something like “I wish we could use the mens” as a comedy throwaway.

      I said “do it, if you’re comfortable doing so, we don’t care”. I mean, there are still stalls with doors right?

      Half a dozen very relieved ladies bolted for the mens.

      I like to think I made some people’s evening just a little better that night.

        The most satisfying part is when it doesn’t even affect our line. Women are heading to our stalls where as most men are using urinals so we still get through just as fast

        That’s the really crazy thing: the entire bathroom issue was manufactured in the first place because the damn signs on the doors never had any legally-enforced meaning to begin with!

          Plus, I’ve never glimpsed another bathroom-goer’s potty parts in a public bathroom. It’s such a made-up non-issue.

            It does happen and it is uncomfortable, regardless of whom. Situations im thinking about include

            • urinals extremely close together with no dividers, or even troughs
            • urinals with overly narrow dividers so you have to stand at an angle or stand way back (or maybe I just have broad shoulders)
            • extra cringe if that is right next to the kids urinal
            • locker room - parts is parts and I understand you need to bring your kid in but your little girl really shouldn’t be here. She’s old enough to use women’s locker room on her own. At least have her use the privacy stall

      My wife followed me into the men’s room last night in Vegas cause the ladies room was closed for cleaning. Didn’t realize anyone was in there, but a dude that happened to be going number 2 bolted outta there like the flash, it was kinda funny.

        One night out my partner and I got separated, leaving me with her handbag, I needed a piss so I took it in to the toilet with me, should have seen the reaction of the two men in there.
