  • I’ve been harassed, yelled at, and insulted by women in the women’s room, but at least they never physically assaulted me. I don’t know if I could count on the men in the men’s room not to do the same and I’d rather not take the chance. I remember a story about a trans woman who was killed in the men’s room and it still gives me chills thinking about it.


  • 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.

    I smoked weed when I was a teen and I turned out just fine. My brother didn’t and he still failed in grades and got himself kicked out of school over a girl. The thing about marijuana screwing up your brain is a lie pushed by the government to try and make people afraid of something that is otherwise harmless.

    Some people (idiots) say it made me queer (nonbinary) or mentally ill (therian) but I always was those things long before I started smoking. It was only years after I smoked that I came out of the closet.








  • That sounds really hard, I personally don’t even like wearing long sleeves (feels uncomfortable for me) unless it’s below zero (Celsius, though it’s not a hard limit and some days even if it’s well below it feels hot an uncomfortable to wear long sleeves), so I couldn’t even imagine how uncomfortable wearing a hoodie would feel in very hot weather (though I’m not really the biggest fan of hoodies to begin with, sleeveless ones are kind of Okay though).
