Are you a boy or a girl?
I'm nonbinary.

Yeah, but what were you born as?
A baby.

No, I mean what is your sex?
Awesome.

FFS! Do you have a penis or a vagina??
I've had my share of both.

OMFG!! WHAT IS IN YOUR PANTS??
A frankly disturbing number of lockpicks.

Me: "This is taking too long" *gets in women's room line, uses restroom, leaves*

*guy looks visibly shaken*

@alice

They should make it a law, specifically, that you CAN just use whichever one has the shortest line no matter who you are, no exceptions. I'd vote in favor of that. It's just so efficient. πŸ˜‚

EDIT: okay, well, this is an entire rant. I hate it when they label single stall restrooms that are otherwise completely identical "men" and "women" for objectively no reason. That's got nothing to do with any idea about gender, or lack thereof; that's just literally fucking pointless. I already ignore those in the event that "men" is already occupied and "women" is not, just on principle.

@Christian_Freiherr_von_Wolff @alice I will note, however, that men tend to be slobs.. so the mens rooms are usually in worse shape. I avoid using a public mens room at all costs for anything except peeing. If it were a women’s room, I'd be much more inclined to entertain sitting purely because things tend to be cleaner.

Disclaimer : I identify as male so I include myself in that slob statement, though I do try to ensure I'm not leaving a mess anywhere. But I'm sure as hell not going to go crazy trying to clean something up if the place is a mess already.. I do not want to go near that…

@XenoPhage @alice

To your point, the urinals in the men's room are often clogged with loose change, and this is clearly intentional. I'm sure there are counterpoints as well, but I've had jobs that involved cleaning both restrooms, and at least from what I've seen, the facilities in the women's room were never rendered unusable by the public deliberately.

What?! WHY?!?!

@XenoPhage @alice

@RamenCatholic some men just want to watch the urinal burn? πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

@Christian_Freiherr_von_Wolff @XenoPhage

@alice @RamenCatholic @XenoPhage

Some men, it just burns when they pee.

@Christian_Freiherr_von_Wolff some men should get that checked out 😟

A lot of men won't, or go to therapy, or not tell the people who work in the emergency room that they slipped and fell on it as if they've never heard that one before. Two of these things are things I've never had to deal with personally, andβ€”hypothetically, of courseβ€”I couldn't possibly pass up the opportunity to explain that I shoved it up my ass intentionally because I wanted to know what it felt like, just for maximum irony.

@Christian_Freiherr_von_Wolff @alice @RamenCatholic @XenoPhage it's ok

Therapy doesn't fix everything. We have other choices such as meds, electricity, useful forms of religion, etc etc
