Womens Spaces Need To Stay Womens Spaces - Tumblr Posts

At my first job at an amusement park, when I was 14, the HR building, which was the ONLY way for employees to enter and exit the park, was always packed. It was impossible to find an adult if you needed one because almost all of us were children, and literally over a thousand of us came and went from that very small building every day. I would often get off my shifts before my sister would, and since she was my ride, I would have to wait there for her for upwards of 2 hours. A boy whose name I never learned REPEATEDLY tried kissing me without my consent after I would get off my shifts "as a joke" to his friends. All I remember about him was that his teeth were black and rotten, and he smelled like cat piss.

If it weren't for the women's bathroom, that became my sanctuary, I would have both been repeatedly assaulted and had a nervous breakdown. If you dare tell me genderless bathrooms are a good idea, I will remind you of every time ever girl I know has had to use the bathroom to escape a creep.

Keep the toilets separate dammit.
