Last week, I ventured into a new café that proudly advertised its “gender-less washrooms.” I thought, great! I can skip the usual awkwardness of waiting outside the ladies’ room while the line stretches longer than a DMV queue. So, I confidently strolled in, only to find a hilarious sign that read: “Please leave your judgment at the door.” As I pushed open the door, I was met with a chaotic scene—three people trying to share a single stall, one guy frantically looking for toilet paper, and a woman loudly debating whether to use the sink for an emergency hair fix.
It was like a scene straight out of a sitcom! Here I was, expecting a peaceful moment of relief, but instead, I walked into a sitcom-worthy bathroom party. Everyone was so focused on their own little crises that we all forgot about the social norms of bathroom etiquette. It dawned on me that while we may be breaking down gender barriers, we were also inadvertently creating a new form of chaos—one where everyone was just as confused and desperate as each other. Who knew gender-less washrooms would lead to a bonding experience over toilet paper shortages and bad hair days?

Air dryer or tiny wind tunnel? You decide 😅

Non-hand washers are going to be furious about this.
S
The fragile egos of non-hand washers can’t handle this 😅

Non ass wipers are going to be thrilled
O
Big soap is behind this woke hand washing dei nonsense. Everyone knows Elijah in the old testament never washed his hands and lived to be 800 years old. Its science.

I personally don’t want the non-hand washers in the bathroom with my kids. Call me old fashioned but it just ain’t right 😆
T
I strongly agree. I don’t want the non-handwashers anywhere near me.
T
A bathroom for everyone… except people with no hands.
R
Wait… How do they wipe?
F
I don’t know. This has me stumped.

I can’t really put my finger on why this is funny.

The old boot-scoot.

Had an aquaintance with hands attached to the shoulders ([thalidomide](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thalidomide_scandal)) but the topic never came up. Now I wonder
M
Just bring a hand in a bag. How hard can it be?
L
Right? People act like carrying around a hand in your lunch bag is too much of a hassle or even “weird”
P
How can she slap?!?

..“whomever” is a made-up word to trick students
A
Nah it’s actually really easy once you get it. You have to think about whoever or whomever as a question. If the answer can be him/her, it’s whomever. I remember this because him has an M, and so does whomever. And if the answer is he/she, it’s whoever. I remember this because he is shorter than him, and whoever is shorter than whomever. Examples: “Whoever did this is cool.” The answer would be “He/she did this.” “Whomever this belongs to is in trouble.” The answer is “This belongs to him/her.” You kinda gotta unpack the context of the sentence to figure it out. But I did feel super smart once I finally learned how to use these words correctly. I also realize this comment makes me sound like I’m 12 years old, I’m 37 and I just figured this out like 5 years ago lol don’t judge me.
E
As a person whose main language isn’t English, TIL. Thank you!
O
Or a bit more simply… If you could move/add “to”, “from” or a similar preposition before “who” and it still mostly makes sense, it should be “whom” ( as long as you want to sound like a pedant ) “To whomever this belongs is in trouble ….” Yes, while the”in trouble” makes this construction feel weird, things belong “to”, so as a thought processes “to whomever did this is cool”? No. “is cool” isn’t something bestowed upon or belonging to people…

that.. doesn’t make any sense can somebody explain what’s the sarcasm here?

I wish all doors to bathrooms could be pushed both ways, so then you don’t have to touch the door handle. What’s the point of washing hands and then touching that? Got to be the dirtiest object known to humanity.
K
This would lead to a not insignificant number of people getting hit with doors. Particularly old people and children I would imagine.
O
Use a paper towel to open the door. Usually there is a garbage can by the door.
P
Agreed. I like stalks with a gap at the bottom so you can pull with your toe. I’ve seen a little screw on attachment for doors, but I don’t think I want to encourage too many people to start just punting doors with their feet all the time.
P
Use a paper towel if there is any and open the door and throw the towel in the garbage before walking out the door.
T
I agree! 👍 Especially if there’s only hand dryers and no paper towels to turn the water off with and to open the door with. Yes, I’m a health care worker. 🤣
L
Do people not just use wrists to open doors when they don’t want to get their hands dirty?
H
Generally it’s a pull to exit, so you could put your wrist in the handle and then someone charges in and breaks your wrist on some doors. Same goes for those little foot-based things on the bottom you are supposed to pull open with your foot. Get too close and it’s your face potentially getting hit instead. I dry my hands with a paper towel and use it to open the door. Awkwardness is proportional to the distance a trash can is from the door.
L
I really can’t imagine a situation like that occurring. If someone somehow exerted enough force to break your wrist, they would have caused some serious damage to your hand either way.
D
A lot of places installed a foot hook at the bottom of the door during covid so you could use your foot to pull the door open. Sadly, not enough places have it
L
And don’t piss on the seat
M
Pete Hegseth is not allowed in this bathroom
B
This is a guy with a boner.
D
Mighty bold of you to assume that’s a dude.
P
These body standards are getting out of hand
R
Why do the comments assume this isn’t a single stall?
P
because it probably isn’t? I’ve been to places with old school men/women bathrooms that were just “converted” to “whatever” bathrooms, no issues
T
And if you sprinkle while you tinkle, be a sweetie and wipe the seaty.
A
Raise the fukin seat man, I dont wanna smear piss juice on the seat
N
It is actually quite devastating how many people forgot to wash their hands, especially properly, after Covid 🥲
