    i wouldn't say i have male bathroom habits as i never pee while standing - it's a massive dysphoria trigger for me, and most likely that holds true for the vast majority of trans women out there. but i also don't do the "peeing while hovering awkwardly over the seat" thing which seems to be one of the main reasons for messy women's bathrooms.

    oh, i also don't make plans to smear my body fluids all over the place as a way to express my hatred for a persecuted minority, i guess this is something that deserves special mention now thanks to terfs.

      I’m very sorry if my comment caused insecurity, I am kinda lookin back at it and feeling like an ass.

      I have NEVER cleaned a fucked up toilet assigned to any gender variation and thought “oh it’s the trans”. I blame chuds (usually small business owner contractors). I blame Karen’s (usually old assigned woman at birth middle class crackers) and so on.

      Really weird question I guess, but is there anything about bathrooms that the dude who sometimes cleans them can do to make them more trans friendly? As a guy who likes the liner things I make sure they’re always well off. But idk, chuds have politicized the most basic human necessity to such a degree I kinda feel like I probably should be proactive on this somehow?

      Sorry if I’m being g weird. Drunk isn’t sn excuse but I’m using it lol

          Thanks, I’m well aware that as a cis person I truly cannot understand what trans comrades go through. I also post without thinking and lots of anger because the world is fucked.

          Your comment did provoke thought tho. Sknce I’m the guy who ends up cleaning the things. I probably ought to learn about how to make them more friendly if possible.

          Chuds want bathroom inspections? Surprise asshole! Imma do trans friendly bathroom inspections!

            srs, don't sweat it :meow-hug: i know that the hearts of people on here are in the right place when it comes to their trans comrades. i'm glad about anyone who is curious, open to learn and willing to support us.

              You are very understanding. I only wish we had less wreckers trying to undermine the basic kindness underpinning such sentiments.

              Imma make a post and pass out tho, hope you have a good one.
