I usually go in the women's room because people clock me more feminine than masc. Men's room is very risky because they might not care but they might also be violent. If the bathroom is busy I pee sitting down so no one sees my feet facing the wrong way, I don't really like it and it feels awkward to do which is why I pee standing up when it's not busy or no one else is in there. I have been caught a few times and the women gave me shit for it, though it was always yelling, chastising, or slurs, they never got violent with me. Most violent one got was grabbing my ear and escorting me out of the bathroom. I don't know if I could trust the men to do the same. I heard a story of a trans woman who was physically and sexually assaulted and murdered in a men's room. That story is very much burned into my mind.

I usually try to avoid public bathrooms in general but lately that's been harder.
