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.

      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?

            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
