    Sometimes I use the women’s restroom because I’m fem enough that I pass well, or at least well enough that no one has ever said anything about me going in there. I prefer it over the men’s room because it’s so much cleaner. I only used urinals when I was a kid and I didn’t like it back then either, so very quickly stopped doing it.

        I mean I’m not as fem as I could be but I have long hair, a relatively soft mid pitch voice, little to no facial hair (I shave what little bit I have religeously). I do also wear makeup and lipstick often. I mean if someone really looked at me they could tell I’m a boy, since I don’t quite have a feminine figure. Though it seems people don’t pay much attention to these details because not one person has ever questioned me.

        I do hope to become more feminine in the future though, I wanted to get E but I also don’t want breasts, I prefer having a flat chest. I’ve heard of Raloxifene and that it can help but I’m still doing research on its effectiveness. Want to be absolutely sure it won’t give me problems and that I won’t end up growing breasts anyway.

        btw just in case anyone suggests top surgery, that would be a no-go. I don’t want breasts and I certainly don’t want chest scars. I know some people think they’re cute but I wouldn’t want scars on my chest just so I can be flat, scars would make me just as unhappy as boobs would.

    I’m at the point where I’m not comfortable in the men’s room, but would go to jail if I went into the correct restroom
    guess I just don’t piss 🤷‍♀️

    I can’t even use the stall if there’s someone else in the bathrooms.
    But it’s impossible to explain that I am late because I had to try 3 different bathrooms and in the end ended up in a completely different building altogether.

    I don’t know why lemmy keeps showing me these memes but I can’t think of an appearance im less like. However, I will only use the urinal if I’m alone.

    For urinal enjoyers try the following experiment, bring a white shirt and pants and spray water with red food colouring at the urinal, then check your clothes

      That’s silly, just eat a few beets

      Your test isn’t valid or controlled, but peeing with beets is same orifice same destination.

    So real, I hate peeing where other people can see me, it’s so uncomfortable. I always either wait for a stall or find another bathroom.

    Fuck public restrooms in general, i try to avoid them when possible. Unfortunately i must use them on rare occasion so i try to going places with exclusively gender neutral pissers. It’s better that way… <3

    As told by he ancient legends, there are better restrooms with no urinals if you only have the courage to find them.
