  You ever stop to consider that maybe you don’t pass as your chosen gender to someone else? Let people use the public restrooms they want. Harassment and rape are crimes, police that all you want, but we don’t need idiots getting bent out of shape and causing confrontations in restrooms because they believe they know better than the individuals who choose to present as a gender.

    I don’t care. I don’t have to use the womans bathroom.

    No. Women’s bathroom are for women. If you don’t agree with that very simple statement, I do not like you and any further conversation is pointless.

      You’re literally making my point for me. Let’s say you, believing yourself a man, go to use the men’s restroom. I look at you, see that you look “chestier” than my idea of a man, and you’re in the men’s restroom!! Now I start screaming about you harassing me in my gender’s restroom. You need to leave!!!

      How fucking stupid. Nobody needs to be policing people’s appearances in what should be a pretty safe place.

        Which wouldn’t be a problem because men can defend themselves from other men. Also, men usually aren’t raped somewhere outside - men rape usually occurs in relationships, and at a MUCH lower rate than for women. I don’t have a problem with trans-men going to the mens bathroom. I have a problem with trans-WOMEN going to the WOMENS bathroom because women should be protected from this kind of harassment. Men do not experience that level of harassment.

        The fact that you can’t even realize such a simple thing and you unironically thought it’s some kind of “gotcha” moment or whatever just proofs my point that you are living in a delusion where the world is a merry place and everyone gets a pony for his 12th birthday. So any kind of discussion with you in this regard is completely useless since you can’t even understand the simplest concepts.

        Feel free to type some more nonsense, but I honestly can’t be bothered to read it anymore.

        It’s funny you feel the need to inverse the genders in your story because you realise how ridiculous your point is if we stuck to the original genders.

      Yes, women’s bathrooms are for women. That’s why I’m saying we should write “women” on the door if we’re pointlessly gendering bathrooms anyway. Having a flower on the door is only going to INCREASE these issues, not decrease them, you “clown.” You don’t like me because I’m pointing out your false statements

      Not only that, but not every women has a vagina, and certainly not every woman has a flowery one. Putting genital depictions on doors doesn’t help women, it harms them (just like it does to men…). How is that hard to see?
