What the Hell?? Nothing bad happened in this particular situation, yet, some members here want to go way off track with comments about how this will affect the image of the whole transgendered community. Yes, I agree that this was bad judgement, but come on, this is a minor thing compared to many other events that are going on in the world around us! Loosen up people!

Jorja, the RESULT of this little escape was a non-event. BUT, how many times have you heard and/or used the phrase, 'I never saw it coming'? Thinking one is alone and BEING alone are very different things. People are everywhere. I'll go back to my original comment, and re-state that had my daughter reported that a man was int he shower/bathroom, I'd have gone ballistic on him. I would never had thought 'this guy must be transgender' but rather, this guy is a freak and his ass is grass.Originally Posted by Jorja
Let's play moot point:
Moot point, if that happened, then why waste time?again, moot point. If you took the time you should just shower.Did the one you use have better water pressure for a shower?moot point, it's like the three bears?Was the floor cleaner than the others?moot point and how could you possibly know in the forest?nobody was around for a half mile or more in every direction.Moot point, So because it was empty it was OK with you?It is not like he barged in when every stall was taken and women were waiting in line for a shower.doesn't one word in your answer make the point it was "wrong"?Who did it hurt because you used the wrong facilities?
in RE: women's being cleaner. I ma going to play the "sexist bs card." here. Really? Because you think men are pigs gives you carte blanche to use another? That would imply that you looked at the men's first, then made a conscious decision to use one that you could have been arrested using. I have been in both, men's rooms are no less nor more clean. smelly, dirty, nicer, better facilities than those marked for women.
For those who think that we are hypocrites for this, get off that horse. The hill is high enough without someone making it rocky. Why would it be better if there were no children? Reinforcing the pedophile card won't get you points.
Oh I love this logic. Hey, I drove at 150 mph through a school zone, nothing happened so back off. Hey I reached into the discharge chute while a saw blade was running, nothing happened so loosen up. Hey I robbed a bank and I didn't get caught so who cares. Just because you got away with it makes it right?
Please please tell me people aren't that entitled
I think the point has been made. The OP has considered and has made their decision. So unless someone has some REALLY good reason in either direction, this is done.

Oooooh, I like playing Devil's advocate! You girls get so worked up.
I think what you did was irresponsible.
Think about it.
Work on your elegance,
and beauty will follow.
it was irresponsible, and having worked as the night porter in factory when I was in college - anyone who thinks a ladies restroom/locker room/shower facility is daintier than the men's are has never had to clean both of them.
Slightly off topic, but a comment to Rachael Davis comment:
I too have cleaned bathrooms, both male and female ones, and I was actually surprised by the lack of cleanliness in the girls room.
For instance ... how on earth do they manage to pee on the seat??
(no, I dont need anyone explain that, it is just an observation.)
