Lets say you go to a public building and in that public building there is a room marked women only, lets say in that room are some toilets, would you go in that room? Since it's a public space in the same building as all the other public space, the only difference is that portion of the space is understood to be only for women, or those that identify as women.

You may stumble in accidentally, and you will be gently corrected, but if you keep stumbling in, it's gonna start to seem weird, and the corrections will get less gentle.

Perhaps this is an exception, but I've disregarded that rule to use the building's only baby changing table a bunch of times.

Yeah, that's fine, a bit outside the metaphor as there is no analog.

Basically just that socially enforced boundaries are a thing even in public spaces.

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

a lot of places have rebranded those to 'family restrooms'. which is great.

yeah i would. esp if the men's room was locked.

i have gone into plenty of women's rooms before. i don't really give a shit about gender/sex rules when it comes to not shitting my pants.

sometimes when i came out a woman got all huffy, but they never did anything about it. because it's pretty stupid ultimately. everyone has to shit. and most people dont' care women use the man's room.

but i don't live in gender exclusivity/anxiety land like many people do. most gender exclusivity people have identity issues hence they need to police other people's gender and sex and make massive generalizations about others gender and sex because they lack self-awareness and understanding and confidence.
