I have no idea what there is not to understand about this…and why it’s mostly men complaining about “protecting women’s spaces”, lol.
This might upset some people, and you know what? Good.
If this upsets you, at least the others will know and the trash can take itself out.
Speaking with a stranger in a bathroom 🤨
Women do it pretty often :)
Speaking in the bathroom, sure.
With a stranger? Absolutely not.
Never seen it
I’ve had a lot of short bathroom chats, mostly like in the meme, with other women in the bathroom. It’s always nice to throw a compliment at a good pair of earrings or help a mom juggling all the things with the door. That kinda thing.
I get really nervous whenever anyone talks to me in a bathroom. Like, my anxiety there gets boosted to x1000, and I just want to finish fast so I can get outta there because I just feel like I’m doing as if I were making a fool of myself.
Though if I have to help with something (idk, something of theirs fall into the ground), I’ll stand over it. But just because I love being helpful. Then I’ll be again like Bocchi (from Bocchi the Rock!)
It’s weird to talk to strangers in general, and to compliment a stranger, in a bathroom… Maybe it’s a cultural thing
Could be! The local culture around my parts tends to be cold and standoffish, but women tend to look out for one another still.
If you think your distaste Is actually due to cultural differences and it’s something so stupid as a bathroom comment maybe don’t say it? Or is it normal to be a rude ignorant asshole in your culture?
Lol pipe down bro they literally just said ‘weird’ a single time. ‘Rude ignorant asshole’ is a way overblown 😂
Did I touch a nerve? I just pointed out a thing that’s strange to me, as people do on social media. I didn’t expect to get this kind of reaction. If anything you’re the rude ignorant asshole here
Earlier this year I was in a busy bathroom and this person had a cute shirt with birds on it. I complimented the shirt. She randomly told me to check out a bird park in a faraway city. I liked that shirt.
Try it, it’ll change your life.
I used to have the worst peeshyness or whatever you call it=> can’t pee around other people at the urinals.
I managed to solve it as follows: say it out loud “oh pee already” to yourself.
You’d be very surprised how many people immediatly talk courage into you.
“Ah don’t worry about it, we all have it, take your time”.
(Of course take this advice with common sense, if you feel unsafe for a valid reason gtfo there)
The last time I spoke with a stranger in the bathroom, I was washing my hands after taking a leak, and a guy walked in and said, “Pissed all over your hands, did ya?”
And then he proceeded to use the bathroom and leave without washing his hands.
I do want it to be clear that I did not piss all over my hands. I just wash my hands after using the restroom.
You know, like a person that isn’t a fucking disgusting freak.
That’s on that other person to feel shame, for not washing their hands but even more importantly. For giving such utterly useless and childish remarks.
Walk with your head held high, washer of hands. You stand with the warriors who fought in the covid wars.
I don’t really have pee shyness, just regular shyness. I could never do that xd
Yeah, I have “I’m not at home with two locked doors in between me and the rest of the world while I’m being as vulnerable as I’ll ever be while awake” shyness.
I usually at least nod hello. It’s an American thing I think, to greet everybody.
