Woman here who’s completely comfortable with unisex bathrooms. As long as there’s a stall door to give everyone some privacy I don’t really give a shit sorry about who else is in there. Some people I’ve talked to find it odd because it isn’t the norm, but I haven’t met anyone who had a problem with it.
If I saw a man in the ladies’ room I might go :dubious: but I wouldn’t challenge him or chase him out. I’d wonder if the mens’ room was out of order, or if he went in the wrong door by accident, or if he was there to help out a wife/daughter/whoever who was disabled or something.
BTW, I have been also asked by men when I have been in the men’s bathroom. A quick “sorry, wrong one”, or “ladies’ broken” and they shrug it off. They never freak out or wonder if I am up to no good.
I avoid inspecting their penises and they refrain from peeping under the stall door. I never caught sight of a stray penis. Tragedy avoided.
I am starting to think that you guys are just afraid of us women sneaking into your bathrooms and laughing at your, erm, inadequacy. It’s not about protecting us from pervy men, it’s about protecting you men from our mockery, isn’t it? Confess.
You’ve dodged on other issues, perhaps, but fair is fair - you’ve given me a straight answer on that. Thank you.
Others haven’t though - look at the other comments I’m getting now. I am asking for a straight answer from them, not you. Don’t say I won’t accept it from you.
I didn’t say everyone would freak out or run from the premises. I simply said most prefer that men not be in the women’s room. The idea that most American women are just fine with men using the lady’s room, any man at any time for any reason, is nuts, and you all know it.
Imagine this - the men’s room where you work breaks down and can’t be used without big repairs. To save money, the boss says “from now on, men can just use the women’s room, permanently.” Are you saying no women, or men, would complain? Honestly?
Reality is real. Pretending people don’t have feelings - strong feelings - about bathroom and locker room privacy is silly. You are the ones trying to shape facts to fit your agendas. I’m just proving how far people like you will go to avoid simple facts. I’m not even talking about transgender issues or trying to argue against transgender rights, which I support. I’m not advocating for, or against, unisex bathrooms or locker rooms either. I’m just amused by how silly people will get over something so simple as an observation about basic social norms.
Why do you insist on continuing with the dodging accusation? Why is that a better explanation than that I’m honestly answering the best I’m able, and we just approach it very differently?
So if you’re asking me not to say something false about you, then please don’t say false things about me.
What is this, a Monty Python sketch? “Thou mayest not pass until thou answerest The Question!”
Sorry, bucky-this conversation is moving on even if everyone here doesn’t answer your fucking question to your fucking satisfaction.
And in the previous paragraph you again accused me of dodging on other issues. I’m answering honestly as best I can, so please stop accusing me of dodging.
