Ohio man has awesome meltdown after discovering that the bathroom in Petco is gender-neutral and screams 'this **** is getting tiring'
Daily Mail UK ^ | July 26, 2023 | Alex Hammer

A man was filmed having a meltdown inside an Ohio Petco after learning the location had a gender-neutral bathroom.

Posted to TikTok Sunday, the clip has since gone viral, and shows the unidentified man relentlessly tearing into staffers over the store policy.

While arguing with employees, the disgruntled shopper is heard slamming the increasingly common concept as 'stupid', while demanding they relay his distaste to their corporate bosses.

Ever-defiant, the workers refuse the citizen's request - and cheekily advise him to take up those talks himself.

The man eventually leaves the store, set on the outskirts of Cleveland, without incident, and has yet to be identified. The incident serves as the latest instance of outrage over prominent chains' increasingly left-leaning policies, and comes on the heels of a chaotic Pride Month rife with conservative-led boycotts.

Video filmed by Rach Arianna captured the altercation in full - and is currently making it way across social media.

In it, the man is heard airing his qualms at staffers after noticing signage that indicated customers of both sexes were allowed into the bathroom.

'This is stupid!' the shopper - seen walking a dog in the 47 second clip - shouts at first.

Approaching staffers at the register, he adds: 'People have had enough of that crap. I don’t care what your policy is.'

As he speaks, his dog is seen pulling in the opposite direction, seemingly confused by its owners' raising voice and confrontational stance.

Fed up by the shopper's outburst - which appeared to be already underway at the video's start - an employee then tells the man that if he has a problem, he should 'ask to speak with somebody.'

In places that accommodate this bathroom misuse, normal men should visit the clearly female restroom and urinate on the seats. It will only be normal women pushing back that will cure this.

Boycott that crap. It doesn’t have to be organized. Just do it.

I have been in a Petco restroom. Essentially it is a single toilet IIRC along with a sink. The door has a lock and that is that. Its a bathroom, nothing more, nothing less. I don’t remember if it was even marked male or female because it was a single toilet restroom—nothing odd about that.

Frankly, I don’t understasnd this gent’s kerfuffle—its a single person restroom and either use it or don’t.

So it’s basically what they call a “unisex” or “family” bathroom that only allows one person at a time? He was not in there with women?

Our bathrooms are gender neutral and if guest are in the home, the door is locked. Does Ohio Man have a Gentleman’s and Ladies restrooms in his home? I got a feeling his wife would box his ears back if he started that nonsense at home.

You answered the question I was about to ask. Thank you.

Yes, single-use public bathrooms have always been marked for both men and women.

If the bathroom in this case was single-use, maybe the man saw the sign on the door and, without opening the door, assumed the bathroom had stalls.

I would agree....urination on any part of the room is necessary to drive home the point that you won’t comply. Might as well go back to a exterior building (porta-potty) where you do your business.

Some businesses have a unisex bathroom not because they are woke but for other reasons. Maybe they decide to make one bathroom for staff and one for public. Businesses do this because too many members of the public often have no respect and are outright disgusting pigs. You can imagine how that plays out in a bathroom.

I do not give a damn if a woman wants to use my male restroom.
I have a big problem if a male defining himself as a female wants to go into the restroom with my granddaughter. I will hurt him.

I don’t have a problem with that. If there are stalls and urinals and both men and women are using it, I *do* have a problem with that.

I’m trying to figure out if this is a unisex bathroom or if this is one of those ones where men and women share them at the same time.

There arent many normal women left. The modern women push for all this crap.

Doesn’t this indicate a gender-neutral bathroom? I see these frequently and it usually means one toilet and sink with a locking door.

If anything, I would think women would have the problem because of how messy they think men are in the john, like not putting the seat down.
