He said “we paid for you” and also didn’t respond to her “stop” and “no.” Maybe it sounds very radical fem but camera lens can be male gazey and with the non consent here this feels kind of rapey (no, that doesn’t undermine actual rape...this is a different degree but in my understanding there is a spectrum of…

Dude, you paid for a movie ticket/cable and received a movie/tv show. End of contract.

No. It used to be pretty common. The idea of telling women to smile more is actually a lot more recent.

pinkham was da bomb. her family were abolitionists and frederick douglas was her neighbor. there is still a clinic in salem, ma that bears her name and gives free health care and vaccines to poor women and their kids.

i wanna find this man’s grave and pee on it WHILE SMILING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FIRST REPORTED INCIDENT OF A MAN TELLING A WOMAN *NOT* TO SMILE?!?

Yeah these assholes don’t give a shit about college co eds being raped at a fraternity party, but the transgender person who just wants to pee and be left alone, THEY’RE the problem.

men are VERY CONCERNED about trans people in the bathroom now because it scares and disempowers them. “what if someone i thought was a chick isn’t really a chick? omg.” that’s it.

Yep. The world needs a collective lesson on gender identity and gender presentation.

Seriously, were this any other circumstance, they would be telling women to cover up more in the restroom because it’s in men’s nature to roam the earth sniffing out vaginas like malnourished hyenas.

Well, that’s just what hetero dudes have done for centuries! That’s normal. Trans people peeing next to you tho, that’s yucky.

Frankly, you could just say in all honesty that the guy is threatening or harassing you. This is some serious bullshit. If I opened a door to some random guy waiting for me and blocking my path, I’d be fucking terrified. Anyone would be.

THIS SEEMS TOTALLY HELPFUL AND NOT AT ALL CREEPY. This will TOTALLY not backfire at all!

So what you’re saying is this is all leading up to a law where a man is allowed to enter the women’s bathroom as long as he thinks he saw another man enter? This will surely lead to protecting the fragile women and will not lead to a man following in a man who thinks he saw another man enter.

I’m being sarcastic but…

He, as a man, appears to be trying to enter the women’s bathroom. I would have called the cops on his nosy ass, and definitely would have seriously considered punching him in the balls. Fuck people like this guy.

“I’m just trying to make sure you’re not being harassed!” (As I stand outside the bathroom, waiting to harass you)

Why in the world do they suddenly care about women being assaulted. No one seemed to care when it was a drunk guy trying to grope me in the middle of the street or on the subway or at a concert.

OH WAIT, ITS not about that is it

WHAT AN ASSHOLE! I’m not Sorry. That is the correct response to idiots trying to interrupt strangers from peeing. “You’re an asshole.” Thank you crazy right-wing jerkfaces for emboldening the potty police. This country gets more ridiculous every day. I CAN’T handle it.

Dressed like a man? MAN WHO IS TRYING TO POLICE THE LADIES ROOM?

How long before someone who isn’t stable decides to be the Bathroom Monitor with a semi automatic and someone gets shot. Because this is exactly where this is headed.
