Why shouldnt men be afforded the same privacy as women?

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

You mean like putting a divider between urinals? Because that already exists as an option. Then no one can look at your precious little Mr. Happy.

Trans men generally use a stall anyway, what with usually lacking what they need in order to use a urinal.

And plenty of cis men also sit down in a stall if they need to urinate.

So men do have that privacy. Even trans men. The problem here is that you don't think trans men are men.

Sometimes, and even then its usually paltry as an actual intrusion-prevention-device> The funniest is when there is a mirror directly across from the urinals, dividers dont do shit then lol

I know OP is about trans, but Ive not mentioned anything regardging cis/trans because imo it doesnt matter. everyone should have the same right to privacy in a bathroom, therefore gender neutral bathrooms make a lot of sense.

And plenty of cis men also sit down in a stall if they need to urinate.

True! But there are inherently less stalls in a mens room BECAUSE of the urinals.

Again, this has nothing to do with trans, youre shoving that into my comments.

I have no idea what your issue is if it isn't about trans people in bathrooms. It sounds like you just want more stalls. Okay.
