    If they can’t bother to label their doors correctly, then they clearly won’t mind which one I go into.

    Normally bees are female, right? Worker drones are sterile female, and only when it’s queen swarm time do males get hatched.

    But honestly, as long as the stalls are enclosed, who the hell cares? We all have to do our business, and it doesn’t matter who is in the room or other stalls.

            A guy who wants to creep is not going to be stopped by a sign.

            Maybe he will sit at a table and track who goes in and out of women’s room and wait till there is no one in there, to go to “the wrong door by accident” and hide in stall.

            A sign won’t stop them. Punishment will…if you experience that report it. Get them arrested. If they try to make it physical punch scream kick scratch.

            Its like locking your car doors. A car thief is likely to just break the window. Or just steal your catalytic converter.

            It makes you feel safe but doesn’t prevent crime.

    I kind love these. It’s a little taste for the rest of us what a few of us must feel almost every time they enter a public bathroom.

    I ran into one and I felt afraid I would be judged for choosing a room that others didn’t expect me to.

    So I rehearsed a quick meaningless apology and took a guess.

    No one actually bothered me, but it was still a little stressful.

    And then I thought, “Oh, that’s what it feels like.”

    I also learned the same place had plenty of other bathrooms clearly labeled in a “for use by anyone” manner. So I guess if I had chickened out, I could still have found those.
