have you ever had a problem using the men's toilet? i'm also a cis woman and occasionally see women at clubs etc take one look at the size of the queue and walk into the men's and i've always admired having the guts to do that but i'm just too nervous that they'll get angry about it or make it weird.

the first time i used the "men's" public toilet i was 11. in a shopping centre. that one set of women's was closed and i didn't want to go all the way to the other end to use the others.

i needed to pee so i went to the toilet.

there was a man in there. he did not even see me. he was standing at the urinal to wee and if you've never been in the men's there's 2 things you need to understand about this setup

you use a urinal standing facing the wall... because they are on the wall. in order to see a penis you would therefore have to approach the urinal and actively look in front of them. you cannot really see one by accident.

they aren't on the same wall as the doors. that is to say, if you come in the door and look side-to-side you will never see anything. urinals are positioned such that you won't be exposed if someone opens the door. this also means that someone using a urinal might hear the door open, but will not see who enters unless they actively turn around to do so (for obvious reasons, there aren't mirrors on the same wall as the urinals) given they're Otherwise Occupied At The Time they... normally don't do that.

so the man in the bathroom at the urinal did not see me - an 11 year old girl in a school uniform - enter the men's. in that particular toilet the cubicles had a sink in them so i didn't need to come out to wash my hands (i've found this to be the most common setup in the men's actually. i can't remember ever being in one where that wasn't the case?)

by the time i was done peeing and washing my hands, he was gone. he never knew i was there. ships in the night.

has anything ever happened in 24 years of using the men's loo if it's even slightly more convenient at the time? short answer: no. literally never.

very occasionally, a man may in fact notice you've come in. this isn't a common occurrence. more or less exclusively "walked in as someone was done peeing and thus facing the door". men don't hang around in the toilets having a chat like women do so it really really doesn't happen often. like they aren't just... there? but whenever it has, the man in question has just looked at me with a puzzled expression. i just say "don't mind me. there was a queue" and they shrug and leave. they don't care.

the most anybody has ever said to me in the toilet was the one time i walked out literally at the same moment a man was walking in. like "bumped into each other in the doorway" same moment.

he looked at me, looked at the sign on the door, then said "oh, phew! i thought i was about the accidentally walk into the ladies"

i said "nope sorry it's me in the "wrong" one. there was a queue and a lot of women take about a thousand years to piss for some reason?"

he shrugged and said "yeah fair enough" and we went our separate ways.

that's it. nobody has ever gotten angry about it. they don't care. if they even realise you're in there they just look confused for about half a second until they realise you're in there on purpose, then they shrug and get on with their day. men in the bathroom are not especially talkative.

nobody has ever made it weird. and nobody has ever tried to show me their penis either because when they're at the stage in proceedings where it's out in the first place they don't know you're there. so. you know.

honestly just do it bro. like most things that are scary it's only scary because it's unfamiliar. you'll do it, absolutely nothing will happen beyond maybe a ?? face, and then you'll be like "oh! okay! the only bad thing about this is the smell"

(i cannot overstate how much worse the men's toilets smell and this has been the case without exception every single time)

(@ men please hydrate more your pee should not be that strong okay buddy. your kidneys are out here fighting for their lives. drink something that isn't a coffee or a beer i am begging)

"I'm against abortion, but I'll make an exception if their life is in danger."

"I'm against government assistance, but I'll make an exception for people with disabilities."

Bullshit.

How do you decide how much danger a pregnant person is in, and how do they prove it? How do you decide how disabled someone is, and how do they prove it?

That's how harmful policies like this pass. First, they create a harmful policy and promise that there are exceptions when it really matters. Then, they reduce how many exceptions there are until there are none.

yeah actually we removed the big bad wolf from the little red riding hood story because portraying violence against minors is really messed up. yeah. yeah also the wolf narrative was really predatory and had had some icky grooming vibes and a fable meant for literal children shouldn’t have implied p*do shit and grape so now little red riding hood goes into the woods and nothing happens and she goes to grandma’s house. don’t worry our kids will still stick to the path and know not to follow to wolves implicitly because we told them to and children should always do as their told. just like little red riding hood does now.
