I know what you said. I'm applying it to the context.Not remotely, but that has nothing to do with what I said at all.

If our restrooms are unisex, it's because there is in fact only one sex using them.
Then stop calling them toilets, you weirdos.At a time, yes. That's the point. These facilities have their disadvantages too, but getting the terminology scrambled is not going to facilitate debate.
I see we've arrived at the fence-sitting stage.Looks like a man, and also looks like a transwoman.

Wait, we call them bathrooms. Never mind.
And yet many toilets. Who’d have thought?There's no bath in the ones I visit.
Agree too. A massive own goal.
There's no bath in the ones I visit.

I think its a perfectly apt slogan...
You were not being sufficiently clear. Keep in mind, this is a thread some people claim that transwomen are women, which means looking like a transwoman means looking like a woman, not like a man. I did not know what definition of "man" you were working with. That is why I asked for you to be explicit.I did. Looks like a man, and also looks like a transwoman.
I'm not the one having trouble with this.
Thanks for explaining my joke to me.There's no bath in the ones I visit.
In NYC? Whichever will cause less disruption and make her and everyone else safest, would be my advice. And I think that's all most people really want out of this.OK, so Hill looks like a man. I agree. Which bathroom should Hill use?
That would be the men's room.In NYC? Whichever will cause less disruption and make her and everyone else safest, I suppose.
Does she look like Hill?Keep in mind that there are women, ciswomen, who look like a man. I have an acquaintance who looks very much like a man--she's female, but it routinely mistaken for a man. It's a source of frustration for her.
Neither would I. Because she is an actual woman, and not a man.I wouldn't tell her not to use the ladies' room.
Ultimately up to her.That would be the men's room.
No, they're quite different looking people.Does she look like Hill?
Would you have some way of knowing that, beyond how she looks?Neither would I. Because she is an actual woman, and not a man.
I asked "should", not "will".Ultimately up to her.
Does she sound like a man? Unless she has taken testosterone, then she probably doesn't. Has she taken testosterone?Would you have some way of knowing that, beyond how she looks?
And I said "Ultimately up to her." Meaning it's a matter of her discretion, at least here in NYC.I asked "should", not "will".
Not really. Do people routinely announce themselves as they go into public bathrooms?Does she sound like a man? Unless she has taken testosterone, then she probably doesn't. Has she taken testosterone?
This contradicts your previous answer.And I said "Ultimately up to her."
Then that's how a person could figure out that she is not in fact a man.Not really.
People routinely talk when interacting with each other. That's not infrequent in women's bathrooms.Do people routinely announce themselves as they go into public bathrooms?
