   Just as an aside, in my 46 years of using public toilets I have never seen anyone else's genitals.
   You'd have to really put the effort in to see someone else's bits. You'd have to be peering under the door or over the top of the stall or through the door gap. You'd have to TRY.
   Which is how I know all the people who are convinced they'll see a penis in the women's toilets are gross little freaks.

     I was attacked in a restroom. It was indeed a cis man, looking like a man, who just waltzed on in after me after drugging my drink. No dress required, in plain view of everyone as that door was in plain view from the bar area.

     @kym @frogglin @glittercleric and then there was the cis man who mistook a tall cis woman for a trans woman and followed her into the women's bathroom to harass her. Saying he was protecting women. While actually being the cis man in the women's bathroom making a cis woman unsafe.
     Their every accusation is a confession. And no cis man who wants to hurt a woman in the women's bathroom will pretend he's trans. He'll just go in there

     @frogglin @glittercleric This. I actually had a co-worker (cishet male) argue that if we allowed trans women into women's change rooms then cis men could pretend to be trans to do it too, and that's why we need to ban trans women from women's sport. To protect women. From cis men. 🤦♀️

     @glittercleric They're avoiding the difficult conversation that we need to have - the threat is *men*.
     It's so much easier to say "Oh no trans people" than it is to say "Oh shit, cis men". Cis men is a massive problem, harder to tackle. Sooo...

     Edit: I was too shorthanded with this, I do not mean to imply all or even most men, what I meant was the people who are likely to be assaulting women in bathrooms are cis men.

     @frogglin that's what I've been saying! Why would I see anyone genitals? But it's probably because they also have this mental connotation that men = dangerous perverts who will randomly whip out their dick if allowed to enter the sacred women's bathroom. And since trans women = men to them... It's absolute bogus, of course. Many cis women really need to confront their bias about men in general because a lot of their transphobia stems from that, I think.

     The stupidest self-own I've seen from "feminists" is when they banned (can't remember if they succeeded) trans women from playing chess in the women's league, citing unfair advantages.
     Way to claim men are inherently more intelligent than women, "feminists"! *slow clap*

     @frogglin @glittercleric I was sitting in the doctor’s waiting room this morning and saw the footage of them all cheering. I had to explain to my 10 year old daughter, who has disclosed consistently her non-hetero status and support for human rights, why the women were all doing their stupid victory dancing like they just pushed all the chess pieces over and strutted around the chessboard like they won.
