As long as transwomen sit down when using the loo, they are more than welcome. I’m glad that snitch line drew up nothing. Imagine if they used those funds to fascilitate free hygiene products? But noo, they gotta harass a minority…
Why does sitting matter? I’m honestly asking because I remember my twenties and about half my friends (women) would just hover over the toilet seat. We’re all in our 40s now so I can pretty much drop the percentage to 10% hovering based on complaints about knee pain lol
Editing to add: I’m actually too short to have ever hovered over a toilet seat, I’m not advocating hovering, but that’s not even my point. Splashes can happen for any number of reasons. Y’all want to say only those who sit down should use the women’s bathroom and I’m here to tell you women are just as gross as men in their capacity to urinate onto the seat, regardless of plumbing.
Hovering is just as bad. Because standing causes small deoplets of urine to splash out of the toilet. Not unlike the mist at the bottom of a waterfall. By cleaning the toilet seat and just sitting down, a stall gets nasty slower.
It’s fine if the stall is horrible already, but if it’s clean, it’s better if we keep it that way.
Everybody seems to think they are going to get butt rabies if their butt touches the toilet seat nowadays. I swear it’s propaganda from big Toilet Seat Cover industry
Given the massive amount of things some women carry in their purses, and the plethora of choices in sanitizing wipes, I don’t understand why this isn’t solved already. If you’re afraid of butt rabies or see something suspicious on the seat, a quick wipe and you’re done. I understand most of us don’t want to carry more stuff but I’ll bet there’s a big overlap between people who already do and people who are afraid of butt rabies
Sorry, editing my comment because I can’t read apparently. Yes urine can splash out, but that doesn’t stop women from bringing their young sons into the bathroom to pee with them. Just clean up after yourself or before if there is an issue. I would hazard a guess that adult trans women would be more likely to clean up a droplet than a young child. Maybe we just use toilet seat covers if we want a barrier?
Also the worst offender is usually the toilet itself for splash back when flushing, in my years of urination experience.
I don’t get what you are trying to imply. I am aware that sitting down isn’t the only option to keep it cleaner for longer.
I know toilets can splash water on the seet. Large droplets aren’t the concern here. It’s the small particles that get out and stick to the seat, walls and floor. You can’t see it, but it does stink up the place.
As for kids, I sure af hope the women clean up after them too. My original commenr was not about whose the worst offender, it’s about being mindful and keeping the stalls clean.
Idk what you’re on about really. My point was why would standing to urinate preclude someone’s ability to use a certain bathroom. Like I have worked a lot of retail in my past, having to clean bathrooms and such, and I don’t remember having to wash walls in the men’s bathroom any more frequently than the women’s because of piss particles. That seems like a made up concern, tbh.
Ok, not really my point, but I understand what you’re saying. I was asking why sitting to pee would be the thing that determines which gender bathroom you use. Then I just made an offhand comment about what it was like 20 years ago in women’s bathrooms because it’s funny to me that I knew so many people opposed to actually sitting down.
I certainly don’t agree that intellectual capacity could be effectively determined by how you use the bathroom, however. That seems silly.
Coed bathrooms at college seemed to work pretty well, and even improved privacy in some ways.
everyone washed their hands. Nothing like peer pressure to encourage that
stalls had walls and doors
urinals had little privacy walls line so many no longer do
So if I’m using a urinal and someone walked in, regardless who they were, all they see is some guy standing there. If someone uses a stall, regardless of who they were , I can probably tell that it’s occupied and maybe judge them for their shoes, but that’s it. What’s the problem?
We had mixed gender bathrooms in highschool, and they were fantastic. Clean, proper bathrooms, not stalls, and the students were responsible for cleaning them + the school weekly, so nobody ever trashed them. (There were two half-hour cleaning sessions each week, with some supplimental janitor help to keep things running smoothly)
Urinals are meant to be used standing. If you piss against the wall at an angle, it won’t mess up the place as much. I was talking about the porcelain throne.

Michael Scott’s Dunder Mifflin Scranton Meredith Palmer Memorial Celebrity Rabies Awareness Pro Am Fun Run Race for the Cure was not in vain!

As someone who used to clean bathrooms for a job, please don’t hover. You make an insane mess.
Hard agree here.
I’ve hovered exactly once in my entire life. If the toilet lid has some pee on it, use the toilet paper. It’s not difficult. Women who hover are dumb.

Are you saying you’ve seen stalls that did not have walls or doors?
Yes. In which case I’ve always been able to turn around
Wow, that’s wild.
