What is a “good experience” in a women’s toilet?

[MyAmpleSheep]

From Reddit.

List your good experiences of using single sex spaces of your gender?

Cheer up everyone’s day by listing your good experiences of using single sex spaces.
Helping fix a woman bra, giving a woman a pad, receiving compliments from women…

Can GI supporting people see why examples of a “good experience” for a trans-identifying man in a women’s toilet being - (first) to play with a woman’s underwear and (second) get involved in her menstruation - is profoundly unhelpful?

Wouldn’t a “good experience” simply be to use the facilities and leave?

How does this “cheer up everyone’s day״?

I was about to say clean loos, clean seats, soap, nothing revolting on the floor, short/no queue and a sensibly placed sanitary bin that you don't have to half-sit on.

But my priorities might be different.

Keeping receipts, in case the thread is deleted:

I would say all that Kitties says, plus no men in there, larping or not.

but that post is revolting. I’ve NEVER in 60 years had help or helped someone else with a bra strap.

🤣 Helping fix a woman's bra!

Operation Let Them Speak in action!

Having a nice smelling hand wash? Er...

I once went in one that had a telly. That was novel.

Eww.

That Reddit poster is a fantasist obviously. Women would run a mile if any man offered any of those things.

Good experience = accessing good wank fodder 🤢

Agreed. There is something really icky about that post.

No queue and clean facilities? I don't tend to talk to or help other women in public toilets, I also don't ask for help. I like to get in and get out. Good experiences are sometimes toilets with free nappies or sanitary products (not that I've ever needed to use them).

Oh I once used one at a National Trust with a lovely smelling handwash, that was a good experience!

Oh yuk! That just, eurgh, go AWAY!
All about fiddling around with the women when the women want it to be clean and everything to work properly.
Vase of flowers is nice on the rare occasions I've come across one and as I have to cart a bag big enough to contain emergency meds I'd like a proper sturdy hook to hang it on thank you. And gaps at the bottom of the stalls to help keep me safe.
There's a beautiful single long glass coloured sink at Anwick Castle ladies, and it actually works, I was very impressed with the efficiency of the drainage as well as it being lovely to look at.

Oh and NO MEN, I don't want to have to worry about that.

Go in. Find loo reasonably clean, with adequate loo paper and functioning door locks. Do what needs to be done and flush. Leave as I would wish to find it. Wash hands. Leave. Ideally no interaction with anyone else at all during the whole brief visit, unless there is no loo paper or some other problem and I altruistically point that out to the next woman. That's a good experience for me. Never in my entire 65 years have I experienced a complete stranger asking for help with clothing, offering compliments or asking for a tampon or pad. Weird fantasist.

I love those self-contained ones with a sink in the stall (similar to a disabled toilet but small)! No interaction with anyone!

No queue, a clean toilet seat, and big enough cubicle so you don’t have to contort around the door

What. The. Fuck.

They have no fucking idea whatsoever, do they?

Actual woman good experiences:

No queue
Doesn't smell
Clean bowl and seat
Clean dry floor
Working lock
Coat / bag hook
Plenty of loo roll that doesn't need to be dragged piece by piece but also doesn't run out fast all over the floor (and no serrated metal ripper to catch your hand on)
Flush works first time
Warm water, soap and hand towels or a handdryer that is fast and works.

Now don't get me wrong, I've been in swanky toilets in my time, old money and new, but honestly once the basics are there any toilet experience is a good one.

WTF?

For the record, when I read the post heading, what went through my mind was:

There is actually bog roll! The door locks properly. The toilet is clean and there is no flood of dubious origins on the floor.

To which I would add:

A nice extra is a hook on the door to hang up your bag. A really nice extra for railway stations etc. is the door opening outwards so that you don't have to wrangle your luggage and yourself around it to get in.
The taps on the washbasins turn on when you want water and off when you don't. There is soap. There are paper towels instead of those noisy blowers.
The toilets are not in a nasty lurky place where I don't feel safe, and there are no dodgy lurkers in the toilets.

Edited to add: evidently most of the people who posted while I was typing feel the same!

I used to until I found out why they aren't safe and how easy it is to put cameras in them....🙁

OMFG what is wrong with men?!?

Eww, eww, eww!! 😖That post is absolutely creepy and disgusting, it's giving shades of that Yaniv bloke from a few years ago. No woman in her right mind, is taking sanitary products from you bro or letting you fix her underwear.

In my many decades on this planet I’ve never helped another woman with her bra, nor been asked to help. I consider a transexual touching a woman’s bra to be sexual assault. It’s also gross.

I've been in some magnificent 'Ladies Rooms' - large spaces acting as a combination lounge, dressing room and toilets. They had sofas, armchairs, well-lit mirrors, hair products, fragrances, deodorants, sanpro, etc, etc, and the loos were, of course, beautifully clean with lavish toilet paper and appropriate bins.

Everybody derides the idea of toilets as social spaces, but these were lovely escape rooms for women. Cosplaying men would really fuck that up, with or without their sleazy 'experiences'.

Well if that's not clear enough that they go into women's toilets so that they can be validated and fulfil their fantasy life in multiple ways, then I don't know what is.

Good experience in loo - not blocked, lock works, loo roll

I’d say, given historic experiences, no one leaning over the top of the cubicle with a phone camera….. 😩

Needless to say it was of the man variety (who hadn’t even bothered to put on a dress….)

I know 😤
I think I might add that there should be a notice saying how often they check for cameras.

Enough toilet paper. A lock that works. A flusher that works. No shit in the bowl or wee on the seat.

A bad experience is usually when those idiotic “Smart One” dispensers have jammed up so you can see all that loo roll through the plastic but you can’t get at it. It’s like when something gets stuck in a vending machine.

An exceptional experience is when there’s paper towels instead of a hand drier.
