If you're on Twitter, take a look at GC Archives @archives_gc. She cites countless examples of men committing crimes in women's and public spaces.

It's hideous stuff and I couldn't watch the videos, but reading the text demonstrates what is going on. She's identified one of the perpetrators in Edinburgh and reported them to the polic

Jesus Christ, WTF is wrong with people?

Gross bastards

Dirty protests are apparently a common thing in prisons...

There was a similar case in NI of a man pissing into a soap dispenser at a location used for PCR testing.

I wish I hadn't seen this

I vaguely recall my dad being upset at this sort of thing in his work loos but I was a teen and walked in on a chat he was having with mum

when I asked him what was happening, he said I didn't need to know.

the world feels very animal at the mo. I normally go to the gym about 5 or 6 ish but I increasingly find I am alarmed by the behaviour I see walking home at 7. 7, fgs, a time when I was probably just finishing work.

in terms of police doing something, I would have thought that with hygiene allegedly at the front of minds at the moment, there would be really harsh punishments for this.

@Livelifeinthebuslane

I had an ex who used to piss in my sink instead of my toilet when they were right next to each other. He was abusive in many other worse ways too. I look back now and wonder how the hell I put up with it for as long as I did, it's just so bizarre though.
Apparently it's quite a common phenomenon. I recall reading something a while back that it's common for men to urinate around a garden when they're visiting a friend - it's very scent-marking someone else's territory in an attempt to assert dominance.

I wonder if there's anything in Will Storr's Status Game book about it?

At work - very nice, very liberal arts/media type place there is a phantom shitter in the men’s apparently.
And when I was reduced to expressing in the loos about 20 years ago, office had men’s next to women’s and on more than one occasion I heard groans and grunts of someone wanking next door. That was quite a small office 🤮

This is why we castrate adult male animals who are not wanted for breeding purposes!
(Just saying...)

Mybalconyiscracking · 29/11/2021 14:56

If I was a transwoman and I genuinely identified with women who had been female since birth, then surely I would understand what the problem was with being concerned about sharing private spaces with human beings with full male genitalia. Maybe I might be unselfish enough to realise that I might have to curb my activities a little, in order to support other women and let them feel comfortable. If I had a genuine female take on the world then I would understand the issue!

Omg thats disgusting

EsmaCannonball · 29/11/2021 14:45

I've never understood how those women who think any woman who objects to mixed-sex toilets is uptight and old-fashioned and just an old meanie don't consider how those men and boys who harass women on the street and on public transport et cetera are going to behave in an environment where there is both minimum opportunity of being observed and maximum opportunity to get their thrills. I really don't get it.

SoItWas · 29/11/2021 14:32

I'm a cleaner (hospitality), it doesn't happen very often, but a few times, in the mens toilets, someone has shit all over the cistern, instead of in the bowl, and I've wondered before is there something more going on there psychologically, than just being drunk.

My ex used to piss in weird places when he was drunk. The first time we broke up, it was because he'd gone into baby ds's room one night, and pissed all over the floor, right under his cot. I used to wonder if it was a territorial thing (and if he was unconsciously jealous of the baby).

Animals 🤢

Whatthechicken · 29/11/2021 14:31

Well that sent me down a rabbit hole that I wished I’d never entered! The urine stuff was bad enough, but some of the other stuff GC Archives is gathering is really, really disturbing. They must be extremely dedicated to exposing this stuff, I couldn’t do it. What a world our kids are growing into!

ArabellaScott · 29/11/2021 14:30

It can be a verb if it is closely followed by 'imprisoning' and 'prosecuting'.

Greenmarmalade · 29/11/2021 14:26

I may have to just forget I’ve ever read this.
Dunging!
Dung should never be a verb.

@Abhannmor

With all due respect to Jeffries I think people only spread faeces on a lavatory wall when the paper runs out. Sociopaths excepted.
Maybe, but there seem to be more sociopaths about than one would expect.

It's worth a look at the book she cites: Queering Bathrooms: Gender, Sexuality, and the Hygienic Imagination by Sheila L. Cavanagh

@TheCountessofFitzdotterel

Surely Twitter is part of the problem here? Looks like he’s using Twitter to get an audience who egg him on and Twitter are cool with that? They really are misogynist arseholes.
They are facilitating a crime. Surely they need to give up this awful man's contact details, and also delete everything he and his followers post.

What the fuck is wrong with people?

ArabellaScott · 29/11/2021 13:06
  • and presuming it's been archived for evidence?
ArabellaScott · 29/11/2021 13:05

Has someone reported to police?

Ereshkigalangcleg · 29/11/2021 12:59

Presumably you can get DNA from some of that, can't you?

All of it.

ScreamingMeMe · 29/11/2021 12:58

What a sick bastard. I hope he gets caught.
