We painted our guest bathroom gloss black and red, have blood red floor mats, a dragon loo roll holder and have a giant cross stitch of Baphomet on the wall. Next up is a bidet.

In my previous house the guest bathroom had doom cyberdemon posters all around it.

Basically, making GBS threads is funny (and possibly demonic) and people who take it seriously can go home.

A girl I knew growing up was almost attacked by a guy in a bathroom in the town centre.

It was a woman's bathroom, because it turns out someone who's going to attack someone doesn't really give a gently caress what the sign on the door says.

You're right. I just have a tough time dealing with the idea that people geniunely fear the toilet assault thing from a trans person. If someone was intent on harming someone they wouldn't need to pretend to be trans person to enter a womens toilet. Not like there's toilet guards checking genders at the door.

It's always going to be tough to understand a completely irrational response to a perfectly reasonable situation. Because that response is inherently impossible to understand if you're thinking rationally.

Locks, but also, if someone inadvertently walks in on someone else in the loo, the most likely response is utter embarassment on both parties then backing out. Or the person inside shouting as soon as they see the door opening where they thought it was locked, and the person outside saying 'oh poo poo sorry' and closing it again.

What are you thinking the effect of someone accidentally walking in on someone else in the loo would be?

E: and why does the gender of either participant matter?

I mean this is welcome but should have happened three months ago and as usual is transferring responsibility onto us to buy our own masks. As far as I can tell we would be in a much better shape than we are of the government had taken the simple steps of a) providing every household with masks (even cheap ones) as this is the best way to reduce transmission and b) mandated wearing them indoors. Am I mistaken or just smarter than everyone in government?

It's also going to leave the enforcement to bus drivers and train guards, who are then going to be the ones getting yelled at or worse by people who don't want to wear masks.

The Question IRL
Jun 8, 2013

Only two contestants left! Here is Doom's chance for revenge...

There is a bar and restaurant in Dublin that is built in a converted Church (called The Church Bar). The bathroom in it is sort of Unisex, in that it's nominally "go to the left side for women and the right side for men."

But it has this design where there is no walls apart from in the cubicles themselves.

I always felt creeped out by that place. Not least because it is in the litteral catacombs part of an old Church. But something about the lack of any walls or soundproofing meant there was no peace or respite in that bathroom.

Then again I hate bars and pubs, so whenever I went there to meet friends I always felt I'll at ease.

Why the or?

Both apply. You only need masks when you can't enforce a distance of two meters between people. The best way to reduce transmission is to avoid getting close to other people (physically or emotionally), not masks - masks only work to reduce the odds of transmission when you're within the danger zone, and while the difference is meaningful it's also a lot smaller than you'd think.

I wonder if there's some sort of psychlogical thing where if you have a one room bathroom that looks like a normal human bathroom in a normal human house, people are less likely to plaster the walls with piss and poo poo for fun.

Genuinely the greatest benefit of working from home is being able to peacefully go on a personal needs break without having to be near people grunt-making GBS threads like they're giving birth then walking out without washing their hands.

Concept: a bathroom that adheres to long term nuclear waste storage design principles.

So technically you can piss in it but you feel extremely uneasy doing so.

What? How many for? My local pharmacy had the 'wear once' ones 10 for £9.99 and now Home Bargains has 6 for £3.59. Also Home Bargains, a washable one made of neoprene for £1.99.
Most of my female friends and relations are busily sewing their own, but as someone renowned throughout a family of generations of seamstresses for stapling a skirt hem and thinking up ever more wild excuses for skipping schools on Mondays because I couldn't do 'pulled threads' and 'applique', I prefer to buy.
Also bought full face shields for just under £8 each (including p&p) for several in the family. I'm saving it for when I have to travel.

I've been using a scarf wrapped round my face until last week when I got hold of the face masks, but was beginning to find it stifling hot and a pain in the rear end to keep washing.
