What bathroom?
Username1994:
Just out of curioùsity,bto those who ardently as female mtf,what bathroom do you use,and what bathroom would you recommend an androgynous appearing "guy" who self identifies female to use. I have been growing my hair 2.5 years and clean shaven face.Not obvious about being the. But I've gotten weird looks and heard some moron yell freak.whatever I could pass as a stoner/metalhead,metal head, although I have a somewhat feminine face,minus my brown ridge,but also women in my family have it too so anyway.
TXSara:
Personally, I steer clear of the women’s bathroom unless I am OBVIOUSLY presenting female. If there’s a unisex bathroom, I’ll use that.
I guess my rule is to go to the restroom that will cause the least amount of hassle. If you can pass as a metalhead, you should probably be going to the men’s room. Just my opinion.
I don’t like to force myself onto anyone else…

Allie Jayne:
It also depends on where you are, in my country, the law allows us to use the restroom we identify with, but that's not the case everywhere. I only use female or unisex bathrooms as am past being seen as male.

For the UK I agree with TxSara.
I was once told by an attendant not to enter a female loo in Thailand which was quite a surprise at the time, although I'm much more femme these days. Not everything out there is plain sailing for those transitioning.
I also remember bumping into a lady who was in full burkha in a female loo in the Middle East. But that was after FFS and I presented female.
I absolutely HATE using men's loos though and always have. I pee sitting down anyway and I loathe the whole male environment of the urinals, the revolting smell, the macho posturing.
Sorry to offload but this has triggered some of my dysphoria.
Northern Star Girl:
"macho posturing" at the men's loos urinals? Seriously???
I have never ever witnessed nor do I have any clue about that.
The women's loos are not always smelling like roses either!!! :o
