Recent incidents show restroom harassment continues even when trans people use birth-sex facilities. Public perception, not policy, drives these conflicts.

there are little girls in there

They're also outside the bathroom in the shop, on display, for everybody to see. Ban men from entering shops. /s

More realistically; ban women from leaving the kitchen

That's just crazy talk. How are they supposed to clean the house if they can't leave the kitchen?

It was never about bathrooms, it was always about making our lives harder and legislating us from existence.

What the everliving shit is that icon supposed to be?

You must be carrying a floppy dildo that is longer than your leg at all times. No exceptions!

This was at the University of Cincinnati, and they've apparently changed them to "male" and "female" since.

Goddammit, Cincinnati. The University of Louisville has the signs that everyone used before 2015 and then extra stickers that say "transgender friendly" or something to that effect. You'd think a bigger city in a less reactionary state would be better.

I can confirm. When I was younger I didn't know I was transfem and I went to the men's bathroom in somewhere in Moscow while having long hair. Got yelled at for looking like a girl in the men's bathroom. That didn't crack my egg.

Back when I had really long hair I once had a couple men cat call me from behind talking about my ass. I'm a VERY bearded dude lol. The look on their faces when I turned around and gave them a thumbs up of thanks was like they had a very sudden and unwelcome awakening. Loved the compliment though, my ass DID look great in those jeans, thank you.

that's totally shocking it's almost as if gender criticism wasn't about gender but about enforcing strict patriarchal gender norms and mainstreaming draconial laws restrictions female bodily autonomy pushed by misogynist legislators
