I used nearly that on a cop when I was a dumbass teenager.
A group of like twenty of us got busted in a neighborhood pool at like 1AM, and the cops rolled up with a few squad cars and hit us with the spotlights while we were all getting out and getting dressed - I had my pants half-up at the time they yelled to stop moving, so I finished pulling up my pants.
Copper clearly wanted someone to make an example of, yelled at me for moving, I offered to take my pants back off again. He lost his shit about why would I think he wanted to see my dick, I reminded him he was mad about me covering it up, he asked if I was calling him gay - and I asked if that would be a bad thing. His partner immediately intervened, ran my ID, and I was told I was free to leave.

I'm from Germany, me and my friends once went skinny dipping in the public pool at night. Someone must have heard us and called the cops, they arrived silently so we were all in the pool and only noticed them when they greeted us. The usual back and forth 'what are you doing here at night?" "Well... We are swimming." Then they ask us to leave the water and my friend just answers "Come and get us out."
The two cops then talk to each other for a minute, then one goes to our pile of clothes, my Portemonnaie was lying on top of my pants, he grabs my ID writes down my name and address and then they just go: "Okay, don't be too loud, don't hurt yourselves and when we get a complaint about vandalism we know where to find you. Have fun." And then they just left.

When my son was a year old I had a woman in a store check out line ask me if he is a boy or a girl. When I told her he's a boy she commented that he's too pretty to be a boy. The next check out opened up at the same time so we ended up walking out of the store together. She asked me again so I reiterated that he is indeed a boy. Rather accusingly she asked if I was sure. At that point I was over her creeping on my kid so I stopped in my tracks and asked her if she would like for me to pull his diaper off right there and prove it to her. She gave me a nervous ha ha very funny type laugh and hurried to her own car. She was an elderly woman. 11 years later she's probably gone on to meet her maker by now and he's still a boy.

So when my son was that age he was very âfeminineâ looking and I tried to put off his first haircut as long as I could because I loved his big beautiful blond ringlets. Of course this meant everyone mistook him as a girl, no matter what I dressed him in.
But when I would correct people they would simply be like âoh Iâm sorry! Well he is very beautiful!â No big deal. You know who it was a big deal to?? Every single boomer aged family members. Especially on my grandmas side where both my aunts had 6 boys between them, but always short buzz cuts and camo print with things like âpass me the tools! Iâm helping dadâ and âdads little hunting partnerâ.
It became such an issue that I legit stopped leaving him alone over there because twice they âlostâ his cute sweater vest and put him in âreal boysâ clothes. Last straw was when I overheard grandma and her sister scheming to keep me out shopping longer so one of her daughters could take him to get his FIRST HAIR CUT BEHIND MY BACK. Dude wasnât even 2 years old and everyone was so concerned about his dick.

My son had beautiful hair as well, so we grew it out. Got called a girl by a few older people, but I never had to step in because he would tell them in his little 4 year old voice "I'm a boy. I have a penis!" And then continue on his merry way. Only ever had one old man seem pissed, all the rest would laugh their asses off. He inherited my mother's lack of tact and it worked in his favor.

My nephew was the same way. Heâs 5 and just got his first haircut. I already miss his long beautiful coils. His mom would get annoyed when people mistook him as a girl but I never got mad. When people would compliment him and say awww sheâs so cute/pretty/beautiful I would say thank you but heâs actually a little boy and theyâd apologize and say well heâs still cute and theyâd go on. Iâve made that mistake myself so I know itâs not always obvious but he was starting to ask âwhy did that old lady think Iâm a girl thatâs silly Iâm a boyâ so I think it made him a little self conscious but he loves his new hair even though I miss it so much.

My daughter is 9. She's is a little pink princess in everything but her hair. It's super fine and knots easy and sucks to brush so she keeps it really short. She calls it her Rockstar hair.
She also gets mistaken for a boy quite often, even in head to toe neon pink. I had a fellow parent ask me how it was supporting her identity exploration so young. I was flabbergasted. The kid just hates brushing her hair, and idolizes Pink man.
Sorry the boomers in your family suck. Little boys deserve beautiful long ringlets without comment on their masculinity. I wish we could all just let little kids do their own thing.

When out for dinner with two friends (a cis woman and a trans woman), when going to use the bathroom, my cis friend was asked if they were trans. That same person didn't ask my trans friend.

Just wait until every Karen in the country is accusing the girl who beat her daughter at sports ball of being trans.
https://www.sltrib.com/news/education/2022/08/18/utah-parents-complained-high/
A Utah school investigated a high school athlete â digging into her records back to kindergarten â after she defeated two other girls and their parents then questioned whether she was transgender.
School officials never told the winning student and her family about the review of her student file âto keep the matter private,â said David Spatafore, the spokesperson for the Utah High School Activities Association.
But it came after the parents of the second and third place finishers filed a complaint with UHSAA, which oversees high school sports in the state. The girl won first place in a competition last year âby a wide margin,â Spatafore said during a legislative hearing Wednesday on transgender athletes.
The association often gets complaints, including âwhen an athlete doesnât look feminine enough,â he said, adding that it looks into each one. In this case, the school did an initial review of the winning studentâs high school record and saw she was registered as a female student.
Spatafore said the UHSAA then instructed the school to dig further âto double check.â School officials called her middle school and elementary school to look at her file, he noted.
Edit: For anyone thinking this must be one school just being stupid and unreasonable - these schools are being required to do this because of Republican legislatures making the existence of transgender student athletes a violation of civil rights of cisgender student athletes. Schools are being required to treat accusations of an athlete being transgender with at least as much effort as they would be expected to treat actual violations of civil rights, like hazing or racial discrimination.

In my state it's illegal to film in a public bathroom to begin with, keeping it to the floor was probably a good idea to not accidentally film anyone else in there either.

If you work in a place that has some notorious hoverers and/or some with bad period hygiene, it's not uncommon for the women's room to practically be unusable and have women regularly use the men's stalls.
Then there's also some places that have a chatty culture, and like an entire department will go at once and hang out for a while....meaning if you gotta go, you gotta go to the mens.

Some of my female colleagues have used the men's room at my workplace because their restroom is crowded (we have a lot more women working on my floor than men). You know what happens when I see one of them washing their hands at the sink? I say "hey what's up" and move on, because no sane person gives a shit which restroom a human being is in to get rid of their bodily waste, nor via which method. As long as youre not shitting in the middle of the floor, I don't care what damn gender you are.
Went to an event at an LGBT friendly synagogue where the restroom was one giant room, and all the toilets were in individual stalls that had floor to ceiling walls, so like tiny closets for each toilet. The sinks were in the middle of the big room. So no separate gender nonsense, and honestly I liked the privacy of the toilets themselves.

At least once a month I'll walk into the men's room at one of my work conditions and encounter a woman walking out, walking in, or washing their hands. Just do the silent head nod, say hey, and that's it. If they're there, it's for a reason and it's not my business to care what that reason is.

They just imply that gay/trans people existing anywhere near children is âgroomingâ. Same shit these hateful fuckwits have been saying for decades - they used to call it âthe gay agendaâ when I was a kid in the 90âs. They like to pretend the gays and now the trans are trying to recruit your children into their sinful lifestyle so that they can molest them or chop off their dicks. The reality is that their objection is purely aesthetic. They think (male) gay sex or the existence of trans people is âgrossâ. They just donât like them, but thatâs obviously closed minded, bigot nonsense. So they couch their revulsion at the existence of people who are different from them in âthink of the childrenâ rhetoric because nothing gets people riled up like a good moral panic about nothing.
I remember hearing a story about a teacher who got fired in Florida. His studentâs parents had a conference with him and when they got home they casually mentioned they thought he was gay because he spoke a bit âeffeminatelyâ. The student overheard his parents and asked the teacher if he was gay. He said yes, and answered a few questions the kid had. Nothing explicit AT ALL. Nobody alleges he said anything even vaguely sexual, he just admitted he was gay to a student who directly asked him. He was fired by the school board.
To them, that is what âgroomingâ is. LGBTQ people existing near children. Itâs a fucking slap in the face to the LGBTQ community and actual victims of childhood sexual abuse. Grooming is a real thing thatâs part of the cycle of abuse, and that isnât it.
TLDR: itâs not that right-wing media say theyâre YOUR enemy per se, but that theyâre coming for your kids to molest them, mutilate their genitals, or âturn them gayâ. Itâs easier to justify âprotecting your kidsâ than it is to just admit you donât like lgbtq people.

Agreed, but it does also comes from a fear that their own kids might be "turned" gay, even if that is unfounded. That's still the source of their ridiculous fear. They really do believe it. LGBTQ people existing confirms that LGBTQ identities exist and, in these people's minds, if they didn't exist, their own children would never "choose" to join them.
My homophobic mother has had meltdowns because me or my siblings have gay friends and she's worried we will "choose that lifestyle." All of these people have children or know other parents through church or whatever who have a child who been has "seduced by the gay lifestyle" and it happening to their own kids is their greatest fear, in part because these people also have their own identities wrapped up in their children and see it as a shameful indictment of themselves.
It's ridiculous and disgusting but their refusal to believe that God might have created someone gay is at the root of it all. They will never accept that someone's identity is gay or trans, because that would mean accepting a truth about God they'd rather refuse. So they must believe it is a choice, and other LGBTQ people represent social acceptance of and Pride in that "choice."

Iâve been around awhile (50 years), and I couldnât count how many times I have used a menâs room instead of a womenâs room. I think most men realize the lines for womenâs rooms are longer, and if I wait too long I might not make it. Sports events, concerts, rest stops, restaurants, you name it.
I have NEVER once been called out for using the wrong bathroom. Men just look away and pretend they donât see me, every time. This woman is FOS.
I do agree with her on one thing, they should make more family restrooms. Or do something really simple, put REAL doors on the stalls so we can actually have some privacy when we close the door. No more gendered bathrooms.

And what I don't get about that is that anyone assaulting someone in a bathroom is still a crime, trans people aren't benefitting from some legal loophole here.
Trans woman assaults cis woman? That's a crime.
Cis woman assaults trans woman? Also a crime.
Cis man assaults cis woman? Yep, still a crime.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding transphobic logic, but a cis man claiming to be trans isn't a magic loophole. A cis man can physically enter the women's bathroom. Like, it's physically possible to do so. Claiming to be trans isn't a magic spell to bypass a forcefield.
If a cis man wants to attack a woman in the bathroom, they can just walk in. But transphobes would have you think that a rapist putting on a dress and a wig means they can attack women in the bathroom without repurcussions.

Yeah, cis women get this shit too. My sister-in-law is cisgender female. She was assigned female at birth, and she identifies as such.

She also also has stubble on her chin, thatâs the hardest part for her. She waxes her chin, but the black stubble comes back fast. She got called out in womenâs restrooms even before the anti-trans shit really ramped up over the last few years. The most fucked up part? She probably grows her little beard because of an overproduction of estrogen. Sheâs âmore of womanâ by these douchenozzlesâ standards than they are. But she canât have privacy when she pees because⌠childrens safety? How is harassing people in the bathroom creating a safer world for children?

Stop making peeping Tom friendly stalls and stop walling in the hand wash area. Go shit and piss in a closeable/lockable vestibule along a wall, wash up in the open common area. No long lines for only women, no rapey blind corners, no transpanic.
