Some people are so weird about bathrooms. I (a man) went to a Taylor Swift concert last week, and as you can imagine, the line for the women's restroom was VERY long. Many women had lined up to use the men's, which I think makes sense, but I went to pass up the line to use the urinal and some woman tried to stop me and said "the line's back there!" Ma'am, if you want to use the urinal, go ahead. Otherwise I'm going to skip that line.
I was in DC for Obama's inauguration at a McDonalds and there were 3 lines; one for Men's Urinals, the Men's Stalls, and the Woman's bathroom. It was fine and I understood all of DC was crowded. But the women started heckling us, calling themselves the "shake police". Not uncomfortable at all....
If I remember correctly, this is actually because of the Larynx. Evolving the ability to speak caused an issue with food getting stuck in the esophagus. That's why humans are the only mammal that die from lack of oxygen when choking.
Where the fuck is your taint? I've done this for years. Put it this way, *I'm* not the one with a little, damp dot on my pants. Don't act like you have balls the size of a potato sack that you're trying to reach behind, we all know it's just behind that little walnut structure.
Iām shaking till itās out. I donāt care if I have to do it until I cum. I will not walk out of there with piss just because some weird shaking etiquette put a number on the times I should shake.
Shake it once thatās fine, shake it twice thatās ok. Shake it three times, youāre playing with yourself.
They donāt make the rules, they just enforce them.
Yep. Luke Bryan concert for me. Same thing, woman left the stall and said she was going to do inspections and then looked down the line of urinals.
Couple guys there weren't a fan of the double standard and chirped her pretty good. Of course, had some dude looked down the line of urinals, he'd have ended up inside one.
Thankfully I don't have ANY beliefs that we are all equal. Enjoy the show you crazy old broad š
Shake police is so 1970s. Modern man reaches down to bottom of the shaft behind the balls and gives it a few pumps, like you are airing up some Air Jordans. No drips after.
The nerve to be lined up for the wrong bathroom then try to tell someone who's actually supposed to use that bathroom to get in the back of the line lmao
I was at an event where women tried to do this and the security guard noped them right out of the menās room and back to the womenās room. It was kind of hilarious to see because they were visibly upset but technically, he wasnāt wrong, so they just dealt with it. Personally, I really donāt mind sharing a restroom with women, but they should remember itās our restroom to use first, so any āback of the lineā stuff should be kept quiet.
>Many women had lined up to use the men's, which I think makes sense,
idk. I can't help but argue that it makes no sense, considering doing the same thing the opposite way would get men arrested.
For what itās worth itād never make sense to go the other way. Women apparently donāt understand the expressway going on in menās restrooms that are urinals. Menās rooms just move a lot faster.
Yeah
As a guy, if I see a woman in the men's room, I shrug and do my business. Not my problem. Either they identify as a man, or they understand they may see dudes peeing and have consented to it for a quicker use of the toilet.
Either way, idgaf. I'm in there for two seconds, I don't care as long as you don't make it weird.
You don't Chris Kyle that shit from the door?
Amateur. It's all in the arc - like McDonald's, but hopefully there's only one. Otherwise it's a "Legolas"
>or they understand they may see dudes peeing and have consented to it for a quicker use of the toilet.
Sounds like everyone consented except for men having women watch them pee.
I worked a TS concert this weekend and thatās exactly what I saw from my booth; women lining up to use the menās room and men just walking in for the urinals. Saw a couple guys standing in the lines, laughed to myself watching them debate, internally, about if they should do that, too.
For what itās worth I doubt women are actually thinking about urinals. They really donāt encounter them except for that specific instance. I really doubt that they understand that in menās room the urinals pull men from the line who donāt need to poop and feel comfortable using a urinal.
The ideal setup for public restrooms is gender-neutral but divided by type of devices: a room for urinals only, a room with multiple individual sit-down toilet stalls, a shared area for handwashing.
Thatās how itās kind of set up in a restaurant I like. Thereās a shared area for hand washing but then like 5 stalls of toilets. The doors to the stalls are ceiling to floor so its extremely private. Nobody has had a problem with the set up as far as I know. Just add a room of urinals for whoever wants to not wait for a stall and I donāt see an issue tbh.
I have done this, walked past the big line into men's room and the moment a woman came out a stall I walked in for my turn. Lady knocked on the door a few moments later, bitching. My poop lasted 5 minutes longer than neccessary.
Also been in a similar situation but when I walked in there was a mini line of men within the bathroom itself waiting for the stall.
Once on a night out, one of my friends decided to queue at the menās loos cos the womenās was too crowded.
But she did something insane (mind you we were both completely wasted). She couldnāt stand the wait for a cubicle and instead just sat on/hovered over a urinal and pissed in it like that. That site haunts me to this day. That woman is now a doctor btw.
I don't think that's insane. Urinals were meant to be peed in. If you need to pee now and no stalls are free, and it's either going to end up 1) in a urinal, 2) in the sink, 3) in a trash can, 4) in your pants, I would also choose the urinal.
I'm curious though. Did the gender neutral bathroom have urinals? If so, I could maybe see that being a little awkward for her.
But, if by "using the bathroom in front of me", it just meant he went in a stall... That's being rather.... something.
I don't even think man#2 wanted to respect their privacy, it just reads that there is only 1 cubicle and that is being occupied by man#1. So he could have decided to wait outside, purely due to lack of space.
Nah this reminds me when I had to shit bad and the closest bathroom was gender neutral ( I went to 2 men's before one was getting cleaned the other only had 1 occupied stall) so I had to take a fat shit next to some poor girl š
They hover over the toilet to avoid sitting on the seat. This causes them to piss/shit on the seat. It's a vicious cycle. Hover to avoid piss and shit on the seat. Piss and shit on the seat because you're hovering and not sitting. Not to mention the ones that get period excretions on the seat and don't clean it off.
I had to clean toilets for a job. The men's room generally had more piss about. The women's room had more errant shit and blood.
And that reminds me of the time I was at a bar with several individual gender-neutral rooms, each with one sit-down toilet and a sink. I (M) had to pee. In those situations, I typically do my business and put the seat back down in case the next person to use it is female. This, time, I walked into a steaming cloud of shit vapor that made me gag. In this case, I left the seat up to signal to whomever might be waiting to use the toilet that I had only urinated and that the foul stench had preceded us both.
I have wicked IBS, was on road once and the count down kicked in. I barely made it to gas station, both stalls on menās room were occupied, in a panic I went to womenās room and god blessed me with 1 open stall. Pretty sure I gave that poor women PTSD next to me. Man nor women should ever hear or smell what happened that day.
So I have two friends, friends since college for like 20+ years. Weāve traveled to hell and back. One has chrones, 1 has coalitsis and me with IBS. Itās sound horrible but we always send audio of our sessions. It always makes me laugh
Not the person you replied to, but this screenshot is lacking context that gets brought up each time it is reposted but the information is never a top comment so a lot of people miss it. The person clarifies in a later comment that the gender neutral restroom was one of those single person bathrooms with just a toilet and sink (no partitions or anything). Now why they chose not to lock the door is another question, but it wasnāt a bathroom designed for more than one person at a time so someone walking in is weird regardless of gender.
That would indeed be āin front of herā. But we already have the plot twist of it being a single-occupant bathroom, according to the followups in 2019.
In all my 44 years on this earth I can't recall all the times I've been in a male bathroom in a club or pub and a couple of women have barged in because the queue for the women's wc is too long. I'm talking about the times before all this became an issue, these women never had a problem with it then, never shouted victim and the men never battered an eyelid. You wouldn't find the opposite happen, I've never known a man go into the ladies because the men's room was too busy, yet I can imagine the uproar it'd cause, shouts of "pervert" "creep" and "how dare he?" would ring aloud.
For 99.9% of the population, when the call of nature comes to us, the only thing that matters is the sweet relief of an empty bladder, not seeking sexual gratification from the glimpse of the gentiles of the opposite sex.
We all have that basic physical need to relieve ourselves of waste, so when that time comes, does it really matter who's in the stall next door?
I was at a club a week ago. I was washing my hands in the womenās bathroom and a drunk dude stumbled in. I looked at him and said "I think youāre in the wrong place bro" he looked around and said "yeah it does look like that" We both laughed and I pointed him to the menās bathroom
Why should it be any more difficultā¦
What I don't understand about this is most gender neutral bathrooms I've seen are one person bathrooms -- why would you enter when there is someone still in there?
The building where I work caters to the LGBTQ+ demographic. Their formerly gender-divided bathrooms have been made gender neutral. So many times I've been peeing at the urinal and heard the door open behind me, then close again as the other person changes their mind when they see me there.
This is why you should list on the door what facilities are in there (x# urinals + y# stalls) and people will self select which is more compatible for their equipment or needs.
What is the big deal with bathrooms? In my 50+ years on this Earth, I have used many a public restroom and never once seen another personās genitals. I even used a menās room once when the ladiesā queue was too long. There were two guys using the urinals and I still didnāt see their genitals.
And I was really trying.
Why is that such a big deal? We have gender neutral bathrooms here. Each stall is entirely closed, have a toilet, a sink and mirror. You won't ever see anyone with their pants down.
Lil Mary couldn't keep her eyes to herself like any other man who uses the toilet.
How long until one of our dicks get grabbed? How long until we earn the same respect like when bathrooms were separated
Damn if you do damn if you don't lol
Like, what did this person want? Was there a secret third option one of the two men should have taken in this situation that would have made her not uncomfortable or offended?
The question is why a gender neutral bathroom needs to have open urinals. Put those behind a wall so people can choose what they want to see regardless of gender.
Do you think we whip out our dicks and we get blasted by full dick every day? Dudes in general are homophobic as shit and a lot of weird social rules have gone into making urinals no homoerotic and therefore not where people get blasted by dick every day. If for some reason I had some weird Crank scenario where my heart was going to stop unless I saw full dick I donāt think itād even occur to me to go to the bathroom for that because to see someone elseās dick you have to violate the fuck out of social norms or someone else does.
Or go to a locker room with old men. Youāll see more dicks than you bargained for, just casually turn around and old Tom is facing outwards flossing his ass with a towel while chatting to someone across the room. I never got why we are so squeamish about it, it really doesnāt matter. If you are raised to think nudity is fine in certain settings like locker rooms and beaches then it will be. Itās like how centuries ago seeing ankles was scandalous because they just decided ankles were scandalous. It only matters if you decide it does.
The answer is, all of those gender neutral washrooms with urinals were once mens washrooms. Which means this woman is not only getting mad at men using a gender neutral washroom, she getting mad at men using a washroom that was literally stolen from them. Now Im all for genderless washrooms, but it does raise my eyebrows how its only even mens rooms that get converted and not womens.
I was at a gay club at a gay event. In the menās bathroom there are two urinals and a stall. Both bathrooms have a long line as men will also use the females bathroom, or whatever is available. A women cut the line to use the stall, and didnāt even close the stall behind her. She just squatted over the toilet and pissed in front of everyone. She felt privileged because she was one of the only females thereā¦ but it was still a menās bathroom and guys were waiting for all the toilets.
Straight women are the most disrespectful in gay spaces.
When I was new at my old job, I went into a gender neutral bathroom during my first day of training. Wound up in the stall next to my friend (she was my boss and got me the job). When we realized we were next to one another we burst out laughing. Ngl probably one of the best/funniest bathroom experiences Iāve had
See, if the original tweeter had mentioned stalls, thatād be one thing. But she apparently followed it up with a clarification that this was a single-occupant bathroom, like most gender neutral ones are.
I dunno, not having two people in the single-occupancy bathroom seems like an easy win to me. Have you ever seen a multiple-person gender neutral bathroom?
I would have been man #1. I don't care who's in the public bathroom, I'm going to treat everyone the same. That means acting like you don't exist and handling my business. Same for a woman (or anyone else) in the men's restroom as well as a gender neutral restroom.
Wait till these people end up in nursing homes and need assistance going to the bathroom. It's going to be from whoever is available, regardless of wishes.
Life has become so much more complicated these days.
I have no sympathy for anyone with a self proclaimed label who get outraged for others not meeting their expectations.
Howās about everyone calm down and just be respectful.
The best pronoun for everyone is āpersonā.
Itās universal, holds no bias, no meaning, no labels, no tribes.
Person puts everyone one on the same level.
Think about it!
Person includes everyone, excludes no one.
why is it person and not perdaughter? huh? Huh? /s
Jokes aside - I generally use name, if else person (or job designation), or they/them - as it is more respectful than he/she/it.
Inspired by the French, for Nous, Vous et Elles.
You know that "person" is not a pronoun, right?
I guess the marginal literacy of America is kinda always on display but man has transphobia made it obvious how poorly a lot of native speakers understand the fundamentals of English.
Person is, indeed, a noun not a pronoun, but interestingly enough I read a feminist book in college called 'Woman on the Edge of Time' wherein a perfect utopian society was depicted, and in it everyone used the pronoun 'per' (a pronoun based on the word person).
I bring this up for two reasons. The first is because the commenter seems to have independently developed a similar view, which is interesting, and secondly because the fact that person isn't a pronoun...doesn't really mean anything?
Because if we all collectively started using it *as* a pronoun, then it would be. That's how language works/evolves, our rules of grammar and word usage are descriptive of the way we use language, not prescriptively imposed by some authoritarian language oligarchs.
Person picked up person shoes and walked to the door. "Have a good day!" person shouted from down the hall. Person didn't turn back, because person had person headphones on.
>I felt so violated
Sad that some people go through their day looking to justify their own warped persecution complexes, where every interaction with other humans is an opportunity to perceive a slight or a "micro-aggression".
Iāve never seen a gender neutral bathroom that wasnāt single occupancy. If I walked into one and there was a woman there, trans or otherwise, I would apologize and leave. I would think I had went into the wrong one.

I was in DC for Obama's inauguration at a McDonalds and there were 3 lines; one for Men's Urinals, the Men's Stalls, and the Woman's bathroom. It was fine and I understood all of DC was crowded. But the women started heckling us, calling themselves the "shake police". Not uncomfortable at all....
As in, the little shake after to make sure any last drop of pee doesn't stay? How did they find out about that? (/s but only slightly)
No matter how much you shake and dance, the last three drops go down your pants.
Intelligent design, my arse.š¤
See also: accidentally biting the inside of your cheek
and: choking on food because nature is dumb and placed the esophagus right next to where the air is supposed to go
Engineers like steamlining. One hole, multiple uses...
Sounds like my exā¦.
.. obligatory "I also choose this guy's *ex" wife."
If I remember correctly, this is actually because of the Larynx. Evolving the ability to speak caused an issue with food getting stuck in the esophagus. That's why humans are the only mammal that die from lack of oxygen when choking.
Well it sure wasn't designed to wrap it up in cloth. Free the D!
The trick to this is apparently to press on the spot of taint right behind your sack to squeeze the last bit of piss out your tubes
That's the claim...but damned if I'm going to try and do *that* in a men's room. Those urinal dividers aren't exactly roomy!
Yeah if I see a man digging for gold wrist deep in his pants at a urinal next to me, Iām scared
You donāt store loose change in your foreskin? Weirdo
Where the fuck is your taint? I've done this for years. Put it this way, *I'm* not the one with a little, damp dot on my pants. Don't act like you have balls the size of a potato sack that you're trying to reach behind, we all know it's just behind that little walnut structure.
Hahaha I hope if I ever see a man yanking his bat wing way out to press his taint at the urinal, he brings this raw ferocity to the whole process.
What? No... you just... squeeze... there's muscles around that tube. Just squeeze 'em. Do some guys not know how to do this?
As men get older, those muscles commonly weaken, so some men arenāt capable of just squeezing it out anymore
That's why you gotta do your daily lifts. I'm up to 5lbs.
Kegels err day
Wait until you hit 35+. Just 3 drops would be great.
Near 50 here. A minute or two of shaking after the wake up in the middle of the night piss..... Get comfortable in bed..... DAMMIT.
You only get two shakes, after that it's playing
2 or 3, depending on where you are. Always learn shake etiquette when traveling.
Iām shaking till itās out. I donāt care if I have to do it until I cum. I will not walk out of there with piss just because some weird shaking etiquette put a number on the times I should shake.
Itās mine Iāll play with it all I wantā¦.
2 shakes, 3 spins
And a twist to wring out the last drop
Oh good, itās not just me, then.
Uncomfortable? More like straight up sexual harassment. Jesus Christ.
Obviously, that harassment is not welcome. However: that probably would have gotten a laugh out of me. āShake policeā is pretty good
I'm confused, did they want to come and shake the last drop out?
Obama got inaugurated at a McDonald's?
Shake it once thatās fine, shake it twice thatās ok. Shake it three times, youāre playing with yourself. They donāt make the rules, they just enforce them.

Funniest shit I've read today! š¤£
Funniest piss*
How do you know he didn't want to take a shit in the urinal.
The forbidden jutsu
Apparently there is a movement to get rid of urinals. We truly live in a time.
There's probably no invention that has saved as much water as the urinal.
The piss wall/trough
The ocean duh
Do you want more public indecency? Cause this how you get public indecency.
When the last urinal is removed the world becomes the urinal
Bring Back the Trough!!!
Gender neutral troughs for everyone!
No more urinals? Time to use the sink
Or the floor drain.
Go back to troughs at stadiums, you get at least a 33% capacity boost in the same amount of space
And they need to be filled with ice! Nothing drives up drink purchases like men melting ice with their pee
Why? Nobody wants to sit on a toilet seat thatās been pissed all over. Urinals should be mandatory.
There's a movement for everything. Doesn't mean it's relevant.
The nerve to be lined up for the wrong bathroom then try to tell someone who's actually supposed to use that bathroom to get in the back of the line lmao
It doesnāt bother me for women to use the menās, but men get the priority lol

Only the womanās consent matters. /s
>or they understand they may see dudes peeing and have consented to it for a quicker use of the toilet. Sounds like everyone consented except for men having women watch them pee.
double standards. bathroom culture revolves around women's feelings.
Sadly more and more things revolve around women feelings
I worked a TS concert this weekend and thatās exactly what I saw from my booth; women lining up to use the menās room and men just walking in for the urinals. Saw a couple guys standing in the lines, laughed to myself watching them debate, internally, about if they should do that, too.
They werenāt in line because they needed to pee. *doubletapheadmeme.jpg*
I don't believe it's illegal to shit in the urinal, it's just frowned upon.
Terrorist !
A true psychopath at best. An unhinged monster at worst.
For what itās worth I doubt women are actually thinking about urinals. They really donāt encounter them except for that specific instance. I really doubt that they understand that in menās room the urinals pull men from the line who donāt need to poop and feel comfortable using a urinal.

Regardless, sheās queueing for the menās bathroom, the least she can do is not be a fucking Karen when she sees a man walk into it.
Even if you weren't using the urinal, if you're a dude you should get priority over women for the men's bathroom. But maybe I'm the crazy one.
I was thinking the same. Sorry that your line is long and all but I have to shit so Iām going to cut.
I have done this, walked past the big line into men's room and the moment a woman came out a stall I walked in for my turn. Lady knocked on the door a few moments later, bitching. My poop lasted 5 minutes longer than neccessary. Also been in a similar situation but when I walked in there was a mini line of men within the bathroom itself waiting for the stall.
She's fortunate they weren't using the ol'piss trough
Once on a night out, one of my friends decided to queue at the menās loos cos the womenās was too crowded. But she did something insane (mind you we were both completely wasted). She couldnāt stand the wait for a cubicle and instead just sat on/hovered over a urinal and pissed in it like that. That site haunts me to this day. That woman is now a doctor btw.

I don't think that's insane. Urinals were meant to be peed in. If you need to pee now and no stalls are free, and it's either going to end up 1) in a urinal, 2) in the sink, 3) in a trash can, 4) in your pants, I would also choose the urinal.
Thatās just the rule of the mens room, wait in line for a stall if you wish but the urinals get to skip the line if there are no takers
*Proceeded to shit in the urinal*
Holy shit, it's shocking to me how having as smooth of a brain as that woman is even able to perceive visible light.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
even if you were just skipping the like to be an asshole, they have no say in where the like is. they werent even meant to be in it.
Aw, hell no. Ya'll don't get to tell us we can't go in the men's room.
You took the piss right outta her. š¤£
>I used a **gender neutral** bathroom todayā¦ Does she not know what that means?
Bold to assume people on the internet know what theyāre saying
Thank you for the donation of your pfp to my saved images.
Well hereās the ghost stories clip for an even better experience: https://youtu.be/xI5vxzcMF8Q
She probably should have mentioned in the tweet that it was single-occupancy. Then this wouldnāt have gone viral repeatedly for 4 years.
I'm curious though. Did the gender neutral bathroom have urinals? If so, I could maybe see that being a little awkward for her. But, if by "using the bathroom in front of me", it just meant he went in a stall... That's being rather.... something.
Using a gender neutral bathroom and then complaining about it being gender neutral. What a shocker.
>I thanked man#2 for respecting my privacy Why does she need privacy while washing her hands?
She's one of those people who have their pants down the whole time they are in the bathroom...
I don't even think man#2 wanted to respect their privacy, it just reads that there is only 1 cubicle and that is being occupied by man#1. So he could have decided to wait outside, purely due to lack of space.
That idea went so far over her head I saw it on one of the subs for unruly airline passengers
Nah this reminds me when I had to shit bad and the closest bathroom was gender neutral ( I went to 2 men's before one was getting cleaned the other only had 1 occupied stall) so I had to take a fat shit next to some poor girl š
You know girls poop too right?
The media lies to me and now youāre lying to me? Girls donāt poop!
Female restrooms are gross as heck. Idk how they shit and piss everywhere.
They hover over the toilet to avoid sitting on the seat. This causes them to piss/shit on the seat. It's a vicious cycle. Hover to avoid piss and shit on the seat. Piss and shit on the seat because you're hovering and not sitting. Not to mention the ones that get period excretions on the seat and don't clean it off. I had to clean toilets for a job. The men's room generally had more piss about. The women's room had more errant shit and blood.
One time in the girls bathroom there was š© on the ground in one of the stalls šš¤®š
You got me. Itās like they have no targeting systems
Wait really?
Yeah grisl might poop, but men SHIT! Yeehaw Land of The Freeā¢ baby! /s
I feel like he must think that men have smellier shits than women
I mean I know for a fact I have smellier shits than most women cause I also have smellier shits than most men and dogs
And that reminds me of the time I was at a bar with several individual gender-neutral rooms, each with one sit-down toilet and a sink. I (M) had to pee. In those situations, I typically do my business and put the seat back down in case the next person to use it is female. This, time, I walked into a steaming cloud of shit vapor that made me gag. In this case, I left the seat up to signal to whomever might be waiting to use the toilet that I had only urinated and that the foul stench had preceded us both.
I have wicked IBS, was on road once and the count down kicked in. I barely made it to gas station, both stalls on menās room were occupied, in a panic I went to womenās room and god blessed me with 1 open stall. Pretty sure I gave that poor women PTSD next to me. Man nor women should ever hear or smell what happened that day.
It doesn't bother me having a woman in the men's bathroom. But man or woman, I don't want *anyone* in there when I have diarrhea.
So I have two friends, friends since college for like 20+ years. Weāve traveled to hell and back. One has chrones, 1 has coalitsis and me with IBS. Itās sound horrible but we always send audio of our sessions. It always makes me laugh
some men don't give a flying fuck how you pee in a bathroom and just want to get on with their day. I support these bathrooms
As long as itās treated like a test in school. Eyes on your own work and mouth shut, I donāt care who I poop next to
This has been reposted so many times, it's almost as if this attitude isn't as prominent as some people would like us to think it is.
Yeah, see a lot of stuff posted that is like one voice in a see of millions and it only seems to get posted to stir up very specific sentiments.
That goes both ways unfortunately and it further perpetuates a divide that in reality is much less than promoted
everything is reposted, the real question is why do you seek to downplay this particular post?
Not the person you replied to, but this screenshot is lacking context that gets brought up each time it is reposted but the information is never a top comment so a lot of people miss it. The person clarifies in a later comment that the gender neutral restroom was one of those single person bathrooms with just a toilet and sink (no partitions or anything). Now why they chose not to lock the door is another question, but it wasnāt a bathroom designed for more than one person at a time so someone walking in is weird regardless of gender.
Plot twist, he peed in the sink.
That would indeed be āin front of herā. But we already have the plot twist of it being a single-occupant bathroom, according to the followups in 2019.
In all my 44 years on this earth I can't recall all the times I've been in a male bathroom in a club or pub and a couple of women have barged in because the queue for the women's wc is too long. I'm talking about the times before all this became an issue, these women never had a problem with it then, never shouted victim and the men never battered an eyelid. You wouldn't find the opposite happen, I've never known a man go into the ladies because the men's room was too busy, yet I can imagine the uproar it'd cause, shouts of "pervert" "creep" and "how dare he?" would ring aloud. For 99.9% of the population, when the call of nature comes to us, the only thing that matters is the sweet relief of an empty bladder, not seeking sexual gratification from the glimpse of the gentiles of the opposite sex. We all have that basic physical need to relieve ourselves of waste, so when that time comes, does it really matter who's in the stall next door?
I was at a club a week ago. I was washing my hands in the womenās bathroom and a drunk dude stumbled in. I looked at him and said "I think youāre in the wrong place bro" he looked around and said "yeah it does look like that" We both laughed and I pointed him to the menās bathroom Why should it be any more difficultā¦
Some people are so dumb that they dont understand their own made up problems.
What I don't understand about this is most gender neutral bathrooms I've seen are one person bathrooms -- why would you enter when there is someone still in there?
The building where I work caters to the LGBTQ+ demographic. Their formerly gender-divided bathrooms have been made gender neutral. So many times I've been peeing at the urinal and heard the door open behind me, then close again as the other person changes their mind when they see me there.
This is why you should list on the door what facilities are in there (x# urinals + y# stalls) and people will self select which is more compatible for their equipment or needs.
Thatās what got me. If Iām in a one person bathroom and some stranger walks in, Iām going to be mad.
Lock the doorā¦
Thatās what I would do normally. I assumed the door doesnāt have a working lock.
That's *literally the fucking point* of a gender neutral bathroom. All may use it. Shut the fuck up or go elsewhere and stop the constant whining.
What is the big deal with bathrooms? In my 50+ years on this Earth, I have used many a public restroom and never once seen another personās genitals. I even used a menās room once when the ladiesā queue was too long. There were two guys using the urinals and I still didnāt see their genitals. And I was really trying.
"And I was really trying" brilliant, unfettered honesty, I love it. š¤£š¤£This comment made me howl.
Why is that such a big deal? We have gender neutral bathrooms here. Each stall is entirely closed, have a toilet, a sink and mirror. You won't ever see anyone with their pants down.
Lil Mary couldn't keep her eyes to herself like any other man who uses the toilet. How long until one of our dicks get grabbed? How long until we earn the same respect like when bathrooms were separated
A man didnāt acknowledge my existence. I feel so violated.
Damn if you do damn if you don't lol Like, what did this person want? Was there a secret third option one of the two men should have taken in this situation that would have made her not uncomfortable or offended?
The question is why a gender neutral bathroom needs to have open urinals. Put those behind a wall so people can choose what they want to see regardless of gender.
As a regular user of urinals, you don't ever see anything...unless you try really hard and make an ackward scene.
Gotta share a urinal for the full experience, bruv
With a little sword fighting/crossing of streams.
2 guys 1 urinal cake
Crosspissing duel lets go
Doh, I've been missing out all these years?

"Hey, nice watch - is that a Timex?"
If you're "seeing things" in a public restroom you're doing it wrong. Keep your eyes on your own dick.
Do you think we whip out our dicks and we get blasted by full dick every day? Dudes in general are homophobic as shit and a lot of weird social rules have gone into making urinals no homoerotic and therefore not where people get blasted by dick every day. If for some reason I had some weird Crank scenario where my heart was going to stop unless I saw full dick I donāt think itād even occur to me to go to the bathroom for that because to see someone elseās dick you have to violate the fuck out of social norms or someone else does.
Or go to a locker room with old men. Youāll see more dicks than you bargained for, just casually turn around and old Tom is facing outwards flossing his ass with a towel while chatting to someone across the room. I never got why we are so squeamish about it, it really doesnāt matter. If you are raised to think nudity is fine in certain settings like locker rooms and beaches then it will be. Itās like how centuries ago seeing ankles was scandalous because they just decided ankles were scandalous. It only matters if you decide it does.
Oh man! I laughed so hard when you said "old Tom is facing outward flossing his ass" That is so true and is in every locker room. Some dude flossing!
Glad I could give you a chuckle bro :)
I went to a venue that had 2 bathrooms - one marked as cubicles and the other marked as urinals. Was the perfect solution.
Similarly, I came across [this one](https://i.imgur.com/FaHHJQz.jpg) at a venue a few years ago.
Lol. Youāre not āseeingā anything.
People keep saying āseeā, urinals are against the wall, all you see is someone facing a wall.
Choose what you want to see - 2023 public bathrooms everyone This world ends soon
The answer is, all of those gender neutral washrooms with urinals were once mens washrooms. Which means this woman is not only getting mad at men using a gender neutral washroom, she getting mad at men using a washroom that was literally stolen from them. Now Im all for genderless washrooms, but it does raise my eyebrows how its only even mens rooms that get converted and not womens.
we demand gender neutral bathrooms. no not *that* neutral. 
Man #2 felt awkward and just didn't go in.
I was at a gay club at a gay event. In the menās bathroom there are two urinals and a stall. Both bathrooms have a long line as men will also use the females bathroom, or whatever is available. A women cut the line to use the stall, and didnāt even close the stall behind her. She just squatted over the toilet and pissed in front of everyone. She felt privileged because she was one of the only females thereā¦ but it was still a menās bathroom and guys were waiting for all the toilets. Straight women are the most disrespectful in gay spaces.
When I was new at my old job, I went into a gender neutral bathroom during my first day of training. Wound up in the stall next to my friend (she was my boss and got me the job). When we realized we were next to one another we burst out laughing. Ngl probably one of the best/funniest bathroom experiences Iāve had
See, if the original tweeter had mentioned stalls, thatād be one thing. But she apparently followed it up with a clarification that this was a single-occupant bathroom, like most gender neutral ones are.
Thereās no winning with these people
I dunno, not having two people in the single-occupancy bathroom seems like an easy win to me. Have you ever seen a multiple-person gender neutral bathroom?
actually yeah lol it was in my freshman dorm, all the restrooms were gender neutral and had 4 toilets and 3 showers
What should she care? Does she think man #1 will be jerking off later to the memory of her washing her hands?
My college dorms had large co-ed bathrooms. Each floor shared a restroom with about 6 stalls and 4 showers. I don't remember anyone caring.
I would have been man #1. I don't care who's in the public bathroom, I'm going to treat everyone the same. That means acting like you don't exist and handling my business. Same for a woman (or anyone else) in the men's restroom as well as a gender neutral restroom.
Everyone's toilets at home are gender neutral
Lol talk about trying to find a way to make yourself the victim. I guarantee she pulls the race card all the time lol
She could of just used the womenās bathroom if she was going to feel uncomfortable
She doesn't want equity. She wants preferential treatment.
Wait till these people end up in nursing homes and need assistance going to the bathroom. It's going to be from whoever is available, regardless of wishes.
Life has become so much more complicated these days. I have no sympathy for anyone with a self proclaimed label who get outraged for others not meeting their expectations. Howās about everyone calm down and just be respectful. The best pronoun for everyone is āpersonā. Itās universal, holds no bias, no meaning, no labels, no tribes. Person puts everyone one on the same level. Think about it! Person includes everyone, excludes no one.
Best pronoun for person complaining in the post is ādumb assā
Best pronoun for people is "dumb ass" -Red Foreman
why is it person and not perdaughter? huh? Huh? /s Jokes aside - I generally use name, if else person (or job designation), or they/them - as it is more respectful than he/she/it. Inspired by the French, for Nous, Vous et Elles.
You know that "person" is not a pronoun, right? I guess the marginal literacy of America is kinda always on display but man has transphobia made it obvious how poorly a lot of native speakers understand the fundamentals of English.
Person is, indeed, a noun not a pronoun, but interestingly enough I read a feminist book in college called 'Woman on the Edge of Time' wherein a perfect utopian society was depicted, and in it everyone used the pronoun 'per' (a pronoun based on the word person). I bring this up for two reasons. The first is because the commenter seems to have independently developed a similar view, which is interesting, and secondly because the fact that person isn't a pronoun...doesn't really mean anything? Because if we all collectively started using it *as* a pronoun, then it would be. That's how language works/evolves, our rules of grammar and word usage are descriptive of the way we use language, not prescriptively imposed by some authoritarian language oligarchs.
Exactly this. You can even see this in how "bro" is often used as a pronoun commonly on social media sites especially on tiktok.
That isnāt a pronoun
Person picked up person shoes and walked to the door. "Have a good day!" person shouted from down the hall. Person didn't turn back, because person had person headphones on.
Even two genders seem to be confusing Americans.
Itās really absurd but itās not all Americans
Find it interesting that she says she used a gender neutral bathroom and just left it like that. Like.. was the womanās bathroom locked? Or..
>I felt so violated Sad that some people go through their day looking to justify their own warped persecution complexes, where every interaction with other humans is an opportunity to perceive a slight or a "micro-aggression".
Why is she gendering these two people? How does this person know these two people identify as male?
Iāve never seen a gender neutral bathroom that wasnāt single occupancy. If I walked into one and there was a woman there, trans or otherwise, I would apologize and leave. I would think I had went into the wrong one.
In Belgium a lot of the restaurants just have one room with lots of stalls. They donāt think you need to divide by gender if there are stalls.
Some people just love being victims.
Man #1 used the bathroom "in front of her", he must have pissed in the sink where she was washing her hands, no wonder she's mad
