A couple said a security guard at the Liberty Hotel in Boston challenged their use of a bathroom and kicked them out.

    Turns out the male in the women’s bathroom was the security guard, instead.

      Friend of JK Rowling and coiner of the term “adult human female” thinks armed men belong in women’s restrooms.

        So women won’t be able to even take a piss without being under the control of armed men. It’s almost as though they’re using trans people as an excuse. . .

      When I was a kid I thought fancy ladies rooms had butler dudes in them too

        I am a guy, but I have actually been to a few places, maybe two, in my whole life, that actually did have butler type people in the restrooms.

        IIRC, one was some yearly corporate gala thing… utterly insufferable… the other was a fancy pants opera theatre.

        I’ll be honest, it never really crossed my mind that the ladies room attendant was a chick, I never really put much thought into that one.

        Also too, BECAUSE IT’S JUST A DESIGNATED PLUMBED ROOM TO TAKE A SHIT, NOT A FUCKING THING TO BE POLITICIZED.
