“I dont really care

I dont want women in mens restrooms either”

I get it. Me either.

But please just for a second acknowledge the differences between the sexes and note that it take longer for one to use the restroom, and that sometimes (seems all the times) facilities aren’t set up to accommodate that. (Why are the same amount of men’s restrooms as women’s restrooms?)

Well for one thing the square footage would be grossly unequal.

Second, because womens restrooms have stalls for womens ‘privacy.’

Perosnally I would prefer Privacy stalls for men and get rid of open air urinals. I dont particularly enjoy lines of guys behind me like that. Never been my thing.

Third they have usually taken more space for things they dont normally put in a guys restroom like changing tables and various item dispensers, and usually more/bigger areas for mirrors and cleaning up.

Granted not all of these were initially placed in the restrooms but as building codes changed they had to put these things in existing bathrooms.

Personally i think they keep the number of toilets in the womens reatrooms down notmonly for space reasons, but to keep them from staying in there too long. Straight guys do not hang around in the can any longer than necessary. I do remember from high school and college and later at clubs, the women hung out quite long in the bathrooms. It becomes a party room. They take selfies of everyone in there for gods sake.

Exactly!

It is the huge difference between males and females that is important here.

A female in the men’s room is almost always a case of crowding in the ladies room... sometimes you just have to go where you can. They are not generally at any risk because most men understand such an incident and will keep an eye out that the lady remains safe.

Males in the ladies room is just too risky. I don’t actually have a problem with some guy who passes as female and feels a psychological need to use the ladies room...often they are at great risk if they go into the men’s room..It’s an odd situation but I understand it. But the creeps who take advantage of the chance to get in and gawk at the girls or cause mayhem make it too risky to allow... women are not safe in such a situation.

When I was a kid (early 60’s) When out shopping or whatever, if my Dad was along we would use the bathroom together...but if it was just me, my sister and my Mom I was expected to use the ladies room with my Mom. This was for my protection...and nobody seemed to mind... the sad truth is that young boys are at risk alone in a men’s room :-/

Sane people deal with the realities of this world....fools are oblivious.

You dont deal with the trans issue because women are annoted they cant get 1st place trophies or because they are for trans people, we just dont want to have them in our restrooms

You have to deal with the trans issue as an ideological one that its wrong, its mental illness, that affects both men and women

just targeting one side is hypocritical and its wrong. its just as wrong on either side. youmhave to fight the entire problem regardless of who is more unhappy about it
