Oh my god that store is real?

Yes, it's real, and it's really a feminist bookstore. Most of the places they film are real locations. I've heard mostly good things from people who have had their spaces used, but then those people usually aren't concerned about RAPE CULTURE.

the video game Rampage but it's the feminist bookstore from Portlandia and it's freaking PISSED. OFF. EPICLY.

A Portland rampage would be the most boring level ever. There would be 4-5 2 level buildings, 1 high rise, a river in the middle and about 100 hipsters waiting in line to enter one of the buildings for twee ice cream/bacon donuts/fresh hopped ipa. The hipsters would stand perfectly still while the monster could devour them at their leisure.

Finally a shop where I can freely poo poo my pants without feeling rejected by my surroundings. If only I lived in America where such wonders are possible.

They have non gendered open restrooms. You can poo poo your pants if you want to though, I won't micro-agress you.

I am genuinely curious as to how the people working that store would react to a guy walking into the store by himself.

I'd like to think they'd be super friendly and pretty jazzed that a guy was genuinely interested in learning about feminism and how to contribute to gender equality from the other side of the fence, but history (and Tumblr) tells me that would not be the case.

They'd be like most portlanders. Asking if you need help then ignoring you for the next 45 minutes.

You mean I wouldn't be committing a microaggression by inserting my cishet self into a feminist safe space? That's a relief

Your existence is a microaggression
