because men's restrooms are covered in piss

[–] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 40 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I identify as a man and accidentally went into the women's bathroom at the supermarket.

It smelled like blood, tampons on the floor, and there was a woman crying in the stall.

I'll take the piss floors.

AWAITING THE HOUR OF REPRISAL

Haha, I can tell you never cleaned retail bathrooms... *cries*

I had to clean the women's bathroom at a Burger King. This will pretty quickly correct any misconceptions you have about differences between the sexes re: bathroom etiquette, we're all god damn animals.

I cleaned bathrooms at an upscale retail store for five years. The women's room was consistently worse. You could tell they just didn't care because they didn't have to clean it, toilet paper and feminine hygiene products left wherever, piss all over the seats from hovering, and the sinks were just covered in garbage. But when the men's room was worse, it was way worse. Holy shit is that literal shit everywhere? God why are there fingerprints in it, did you do that barehanded? Why the fuck is it inside the toilet paper dispenser?

So are the women's, men aren't special.

From what I've heard from janitors, the women's rooms can be outright disturbing. Like period blood murals on the wall.

"period blood mural" is a great punk or trash metal band name

There's this place i go to where they have 2 single-person bathrooms, but they're still gendered. Maybe this is the reason

A lot of places with single-person bathrooms that are gendered I usually just see whomever use whichever, whenever.
