I posted about this story on my Insta story, so I'll just repost that here (though I'm not really saying anything that most people here haven't said or heard). But to make it clear, the amount of danger cis women face from sharing a restroom with trans women is NONE. NONE DANGER.

In fact, trans women will always face more danger in many if not all regards and they matter regardless of what happens or doesn't happen to cis women. But in this case and in many of these cases it is CIS WOMEN trying to enforce standards of \"femininity\" that can very very easily be turned around and used against them. You may be the perfect femme, with long hair and nails and wears makeup everyday etc, but is your mom? does your grandma have short hair? does your best friend sometimes go out in sweatpants and no makeup? all it takes is one person saying \"you don't look like a woman in the way I want you to\" and this could happen to them. And that's not even getting into the ways this shit is weaponized against non-white women! Cis women: stop enforcing the patriarchy's system of standards for what womanhood and femininity are against your fellow women, cis or trans. You are in FAR MORE danger from a shitty rent a cop barging it on you in the restroom then you ever will be from sharing a restroom with a trans woman", "image": { "$type": "blob", "ref": { "$link": "bafkreiecwzehy7o5lke63wvbegeiiikehnc7w6arwqocsuqphavuulluja" }, "mimeType": "image/jpeg", "size": 391143 }, "aspectRatio": { "width": 1080, "height": 572 } } ] }, "record": { "$type": "app.bsky.embed.record", "record": { "cid": "bafyreigwnr5wau6qsobr4gpcz5qzbeobu5qn7qwadvp2dwvjqn5nsvxdqm", "uri": "at://did:plc:u6ajzyiqzkzbppp2x2y7fpfu/app.bsky.feed.post/3loirrrs7vc2q" } } }, "langs": [ "en" ], "createdAt": "2025-05-07T20:56:37.505Z" } }
