And like ... are there going to be dudes lurking around the bathroom entrances judging who goes in? Because THAT’S not fucking creepy or anything! And frankly, if we had a “who looks more feminine, Janet Mock or many bells down?” contest, I would lose.

The argument I’ve been seeing a lot now is “Well if a guy goes in there NOW, you can complain. But if we let anyone use the bathroom, it’s illegal to complain about them!”

A guy I turned down for a drink attempted to follow me into a nightclub bathroom. He was stopped by the lesbian bouncer who did NOT follow me in, even though she was totally allowed to and had also been hitting on me earlier.

Well and if I go for the (admittedly very cute) retro look, I can get “high-waisted bottoms”. Again, they’re cute, but it’s not my stomach I care about. It’s having to shave everything within an inch of my life so that I don’t have riotous pubes escaping from my bottoms. Frankly I think it’s kind of weird that bathing…

Yeah I’m so frustrated by swimsuits - not because I don’t like how I look, but because I just can’t find what I want: a bikini top with some support (not a fucking bandeau with a stupid ruffle) and bottoms that are SHORTS. And that comes in more colors than black.

Something like that happened in Seattle recently; a dude walked into a women’s locker room and said he had the right to be there. He did not claim to be transgender. He did not claim to be a woman. He was just a dude, being an asshole for the sake of it. Which I think is a perfectly valid reason to throw anyone of any…

I was totally wearing a gigantic cape. Going to the bathroom was a process.

I was thinking it might be some distortion from the lens? The cake really does look weird.

My cousin has found a fondant that doesn’t taste like plasticy death. She has to specially order it, and it’s expensive, but her cakes are fucking amazing.

That’s the one! :D

There was just a letter on “Ask a Manager” from someone who worked at a company that was 90% men, and there was starting to be a wait for the mens rooms. The company had the (bad) idea to convert some of the womens rooms to mens. A lot of people pointed out that it was kind of funny that women have been waiting in…

I have had this same thing happen. Only it was the fabric store/Starbucks. Thanks Google, I know I have no life.

And these will be the same people who insist that their sons “just naturally” like cars and guns and their daughters “just naturally” like pink baby dolls. So removing the labels is going to change this inclination that you’re assuring me is “just natural”?

It makes me mad because they’re conflating two totally different things anyway: people of whatever gender using the restroom, and people being creepy assholes in the restroom. Anyone who wants to pee, wash their hands, and leave I don’t care about. Anyone of any gender who wants to leer through the gap in the stall…

I was on a road trip with a group of women and this same thing happened when we stopped for a bathroom break. The ladies I was with all lined up at the women’s single bathroom. I looked over at the open men’s and went in, and they were SHOCKED.

We are sisters, because I plunk my ass on the seat and I don’t use the paper ever unless it’s super gross and there’s no other option (and then there’s probably not a paper thing in there anyway). I have never caught anything from a toilet seat in 40 years.

It’s hilariously sad to me that they see no difference between “we just didn’t label this toy” and “we want all your children to be transgender communist heathens”.

Yeah I remember a goth club in L.A. that had one giant restroom. I didn’t even realize it was the only one and everyone was using it until like the 3rd time I’d been there.

I inherited, sort of. My grandmother was a chapter head in Massachusetts for a decade so there wasn’t a lot of difficulty getting vetted. But I was living in California when I signed up and I don’t think I’m actually on the roster anymore. I should re-up.

I mean, the worst internet flame war I ever saw was between women who sit and women who “hover”. The hoverers think the sitters are vile filthy creatures, and the sitters are like “it wouldn’t be gross if you weren’t spraying pee everywhere!” It went on for MONTHS.
