  Genitals??? No no no. You got it all wrong. It’s asking “When you pee, is it delicate like a flower? Or does it sting like a cactus?”

  Just trying to prevent the spread of STDs through toilet seats.

  nor do genital shapes equate to gender and bathroom choices

  For most people out there, they do.

    Most people don’t have wheelchairs either, yet crosswalks have those little dips in the curb for wheelchairs. And consequently it’s far more pleasant now for cyclists and any other person traveling on sidewalks with wheels

      First of all, no idea what you’re talking about. We have those curbs on train platforms, but those are for blind people so they don’t fall onto the tracks.

      Second, I don’t get what you’re trying to say tbh. The womens bathroom is better with trans people in it or what is the argument here?

        They’re saying accessibility makes everyone’s lives better

    that’s no excuse for non-inclusivity

      Wait until your girlfriend gets harassed and almost raped in the womens bathroom by a “trans woman”, then we can discuss this non-inclusivity bullshit.

        I’m sorry that happened to your girlfriend, but anyone is capable of rape. You seem to be fixating on the trans part because it affirms your biases.

        Oh why would I need to wait for that to discuss inclusivity?

        the problems id see:

        • obviously the harassment and attempted rape itself, regardless of genders involved
        • someone in a vulnerable group is punching down
        • the bathroom is not designed for universal privacy and safety (having proper walls)

        it happening in a bathroom would not be that much of a detail tbh

        also all my girlfriends are trans

        and cis men are the demographic most likely to be rapists, so vulnerable people (anyone who isnt a cis man) should be able to stay away

        so id want my girlfriends safe from them primarily because theyre a way bigger risk

        and also claiming that gendered bathrooms are safe because men (or, as seems to be the more common argument, cock havers) will want to rape women (which is taken to mean pussy havers rather than ppl who would be seen as women which is what would actually get them targeted), which erases non-heterosexuals (and being bi, gay, and straight are equally common among trans people), making it an invalid “solution”

        all genders (and sexes) are capable of rape, but cishet men are the most likely to do it, and a lot more of them are bi/gay than admit it, and also people might rape outside of their sexualities out of power dyamics

  Is my genitals feeling spikey or is it a soft smelling flower today?

• Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  Thing is: They do.
  If a transwoman with a penis feels like going into the urinal bathroom: Sure. Go bud.
  Not like it said “Man and male with penis only”

    Yeah… that’s not how that shit works in practice if you’re trans in far too many places…

    • Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      True, but that’s another issue (sadly).

        I think guys really wouldn’t mind a transwoman nearly as much as a trans man would bother people in the ladies.

        Although the trans woman might have a bad experience in the mens (imagine the scale of a “bad experience” yourself), I don’t think that men would be bothered. Hell, pretty often in nightclubs you get cis women using the men’s, because the line is so much longer and slower in the ladies.
