Title: Do I pass? (Updated!)
Post by: Xanderthevampireweeb on March 09, 2018, 09:27:03 PM
I'm looking to start using the men's bathrooms, but im worried I won't pass enough? I have bedhead for days, so sorry about my hair being gross as hell. I'm also thinking of growing it out to get a deathhawk, but im worried I'll either 1. be super dysphoric, or 2. get misgendered all the time, so idk.

I don't think I would look twice seeing you use a men's room. Give it a try, you have nothing to lose. Just be prepared they can be a tad yucky. I don't even like using them.

When I look at your photo I see Anthony Michael Hall in Sixteen Candles.  https://goo.gl/images/9ucYWf (https://goo.gl/images/9ucYWf)

Just walk in like you own the place, do your business, wash up, and get back to business.  Because that's how guys roll.

Hugs, Carly.

You look Fine, Guys do not socialize in restrooms. its unusual to  make eye contact or have a conversation in a restroom. Walk in do what your there for and walk out.

OP take this advice. If a guy looks at another guy in the bathroom at all it is awkward.
I assume youll be using the stalls and if you're worried about guys noticing that, they don't even care.

I also want to echo about them being disgusting in general. Loose seats, peed on floors and peed on toilet seats!

I fully recommend carrying some small hygiene wipes to wipe the toilet rim.

Some men are just gross

If you're aiming for awkward teen then you nailed it!   ;D

Also, I second the hygiene wipes.

Word. It's bad enough that I have to look at the darn thing without anyone else using it as a conversation starter.
