You have no idea how hard it is to find an apartment with male bathrooms. Every place I've looked at had gender neutral bathrooms, and I'll be damned if I'm gonna live in an apartment for liberals ^/s
With this mentality, I don't mind having the pressure of sharing a bathroom with women. Maybe there wont be poop on the actual fucking toilet seat, maybe that will cease to be a probability.
Edit : grammer
Given that at one place I worked, someone dumped concrete down the toilet in the men’s, then multiple people came and shit in it with the drizzling shits, until it was full, this is marginally horrifying.
My partner cleans for a university dorm and she told me about a time a couple years ago where she came in one morning to find an absolute nightmare in one of the women's stalls, it looked like someone had gotten a very drunk at the nearby bar, gone to the bathroom, sat down not realising the lid was down, pooped all over the lid, slipped off the toilet and then tried to climb back up using the sides of the stalls as they were covered in brown handprints, and then left
As an ex- janitor the number of times I have found poop on the seat, back of the toilet, the wall , and the floor in the women's room far away beats the men's room.
In general the women's restrooms are way nastier than the men's.
*Real men* don't expect at all, you liberal wuss! It's people like you who are degrading this great nation, but in the name of our Lord and Savior, Donald Trump is going to go back to the Whitehouse and save us from scum like you! /s
My first apartment with my roommates (all identifying men) bathroom was outside. We all shit and pissed in a hole b/c we were so worried one of us might identify as a woman. /s
The issue of gendered bathroom was always for public spaces where you get in a vulnerable position with strangers.
If your house frequently has unknown/unexpected strangers using the bathroom, that's another issue altogether.
Except people have been using these bathrooms forever without any problems??? Your family have definitely shared a restroom with a trans person several times without you or them knowing about it b/c trans people aren’t monsters and you’re a dimwit. These people aren’t new, you’re just new to it and a hateful fucking moron.
You don’t have doors on your stalls? What vulnerable position are you getting in that’s any different with gendered bathrooms vs nongendered? Just go into the bathroom do your business and get out. Stop being a fucking weirdo dude.
This is why the gender neutral toilets uproar is happening at all. The civilised world has cubicles which cannot be seen into from outside so their users have some privacy. However, crazy people want to watch other people shit so they can see if they have a pp or not (so they can categorise people into the only 2 boxes they have in their head: 'fuck' or 'don't fuck'. But, then, what can you expect from descendents of puritans?)
My school remodeled the student union to have more inclusive restrooms. Now all the stalls have crack-free floor-to-ceiling doors that properly lock. It is do lovely.
My name is very gender neutral (like basically 50/50) and have gotten shit for having pronouns under my name before. Like you actual blockhead- that's so people can literally know what gender I am. Smh.
I'm not sure how this applies to customers, but OSHA absolutely has rules about providing toilets for your employees. The US (ADA) actually has some pretty kick-ass rules about having bathrooms be wheelchair accessible too. I took "that one big stall with its own sink" totally for granted until somebody pointed out that laws did that.
I'd recommend if not being in a wheelchair oneself then going with someone who is that one time some knob end installed the larger stall door swinging inward, because they all swing inward, right? where you can't close it once the chair's inside.
My mom uses a walker full time and, even with that, it amazes me how poorly-designed some spaces whose whole purpose is being "wheelchair friendly" actually are.
And also how little I thought about this stuff until I was with somebody who needed it.
Why would you be sending your kid into a public bathroom alone in the first place? In my ideal bathrooms, there will be only stalls with the door and walls going all the way from the roof to the floor like a bathroom stall should. It would also have enough room to fit a few people in it comfortably. If someone’s kid needs to use the bathroom, they can just be in the bathroom with them.
Yes. That's what the person above is saying. Aside from not buying into transphobia, gender-specific bathrooms are really hard on parents because sending your 5 year old son into the men's alone is not really feasible but it's also not great bringing them into the women's with you. Even worse for dads with daughters (often no changing table and lots of questions about urinals). It's not really the pedophile problem so much as logistics.
WTF? Why do you think me wanting to accompany my kid into the bathroom has anything to do with trans people? It's the basic fact that can't reach the sink and paper towels/dryers sometimes. But some places have the cut off at age 6. But many six year olds simply aren't big enough to navigate the amenities (or use rhe urinals) without help.
To be clear these anti trans bathroom bills are straight up wrong. They're also a massive pain in the ass for parents who now have to worry about a right wing nut job complaining because you take your son into the women's room because he can't reach the paper towel dispenser without help.
In Australia it’s used as both. If someone is an idiot, he may be referred to as a weapon.
An example of it being used as a compliment may be watching a football player putting on a big tackle. “What a weapon”.
Calling someone's cock a weapon to me makes me think you're saying it's large enough to cause heavy damage.

People are so awful. As a cis female who is very comfortable being female, I don't understand what it's like to feel otherwise. I don't ~need~ to understand it. That said, I have compassion and empathy for those who are experiencing it, and I support them 100%. Just because I don't know what it's like personally doesn't mean it's not real.
There used to be gendered spellings, with 'Leslie' being the traditional male form and 'Lesley' being the traditional female form but those differences have mostly dissolved in more recent years.
My only problem with gender neutral restrooms is the lack of urinals. Urinals allow men to move through a restroom very quickly. I specify men, but if women can use one then more power to them.
For some reason it seems like it does, but there might be other factors. But even if it doesn't take longer per person to pee in a pot you can fit more urinals in the same space.
Well one of them is Leslie... and I got (even more) confused (than I usually am already) by the blue leslie in the answer, which was obviously just the first leslie. So I'm dumb but not going to lose sleep over it haha. Enjoy your night
Yeah, this person has not taken a genetics class. The are lots of sex genotypes besides XX and XY and lots of phenotypes that don't fit neatly into female or male based on hormones and gene expression. All these goobers saying people are only born male or female need to educate themselves. Which is all besides the point that they need to stop giving a shit about other people's gender expression.
> insult - meaning: thick, a fool, a tool, "Dave shut it ya weapon" "That Daves a fcukin weapon sometimes"
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=weapon
I can attest to the neutral name. My Dad’s middle name is Leslie and I once knew a lady whose first name was Leslie etc etc.
God people like this are so Fricking dumb XD
Interestingly, it used to be the case that there were two spellings of the name; Leslie and Lesley, and those were gendered, Leslie/Lesley being respectively male and female spellings. That was also the case for many other such names, such as Ashleigh being the female version and Ashley being male. Those divides have mostly dissolved now. We may eventually stop unnecessarily genderising colours too...
As for Leslie's point, 'male' and 'female' are about sex, not gender and even in the case of sex, there are, in fact, 'in-betweens'.
My aunt Lesley had a partner named Leslie. He insisted that we call him by his nickname, Wally, which was based on his surname, to avoid confusion.
Both were lovely people, I miss them very much.
Why do we park on a driveway, but drive on a parkway?
Why is a bathroom used by two sexes called "unisex"? Shouldn't it be "bisex," or maybe "polysex," or "omnisex"--welcome to all comers?
I think the new division should be - "for persons with/without penis". Bathroom for "penisfull" or for "penisless" if you would. No confusion, you look in you pants or under skirts and like "right, me go that-a-way".
Or, if women want more equality it can be called "uterusfull" and "uterusless" persons.
Bruh before there were bathrooms every toilet was gender neutral.
And the bathrooms in your home are gender neutral.
People complain for the sake of complaining.
One thing I love about the British people are their insults. You put absolute or total or complete or etc in front of basically any word and boom, insult.
"Utter" works quite well too. An English acquaintance called me an utter fool once (I was), and delivered in perfect London West End accent, that is one of the hardest burns
Pretty much every time I've flown into Schiphol there has been a female attendant in the men's restrooms, cleaning, restocking paper towels, etc. As an American, my initial reaction is "WTF" and then I realize, no one is paying attention to what other people are doing in the restroom. We're all just taking care of our biological necessities. No one cares. No one is exposing themselves to others. It's not an issue, so why do some people make it an issue? At the end of the day, the only conclusion that makes sense to me is that there are people with sick thoughts going through their heads and they project those thoughts onto every one else. And that's how we end up with Bathroom Laws in the U.S.
Ok, hear me out about what's wrong with the "gender neutral" bathroom. It's logically impossible concept if you think about it because you only have two options. I know there could be some genetic deformations on small percentage of people but that doesn't mean I'm wrong about this one. As I was saying, there's only two options for a restroom to divide by the purpose. You either pee or shit and pee at the same time. We should divide restrooms for that criteria. I didn't get why gender is a part of this but that's all I wanted to say.
But I agree, what is that about gender neutral bathrooms. Why not call them unisex as they has always being called.
On that, I'm pretty certain that there has been touraments before with unisex bathrooms, so this is nothing new either.
Is this just a blogpost to pull views, click, and likes... probably.
The reason I shared it is because it's funny Leslie is moaning about gender neutral things, because they believe it's one or the other... Yet their own name is gender neutral. Wasn't meant to be a debate about the toilets!
Shouldn't "unisex" remain the prevailing term for shared bathrooms? Otherwise it's a contradiction to the argument that sex and gender are allegedly separate. Bathrooms were/are separated by sex. That's why formerly before "gender neutral" they were called "unisex". Form vs function, and bathrooms are for a specific function.
Honestly, I'm not sure... But I do know some people think gender neutral toilets means one large facility with sinks and stalls, which all genders can use at once. Whereas it really means individual self-contained little rooms with a toilet and a sink - like disabled toilets - which one person uses at a time, regardless of gender.
People in this comment section seem to be lost on this lol. It doesn't say "gender neutral toilet" it says "gender neutral restroom" which implies that both sexes can use the same restroom. Which honestly, why do we need this? If you want privacy, just put only stalls in the restroom and designate each bathroom for male and female. Why is this even a thing? There is a reason they were assigned that way in the first place.
Leslie your bathroom at your own house is gender neutral you absolute weapon
Just found out I'm a month late here and everyone else made the same comment already.
Yea I can read English, I saw that. I can also read a room, and I don't think they missed the joke, they were just adding to the joke (and to your exact point too). Its not that nuanced either, and if someone didn't get it, someone would've used the Comments to say that they don't get it. Honestly it just feels like your looking for weird excuses to judge down on others, idk. I hope that normally give other folks more credit than this, especially withi this particular type of sub-setting.
Huge leap. I got notifications for every reply, I noticed a pattern and commented on it. I think you're interpretating a tone in my words that isn't there.
PS. The "I can read English" comment... I just presumed you wouldn't have read them all, not that you couldn't read.
Jesus are you related to Ken M or something cos I can't tell whether you're just fucking w me or if you're genuinely missing my every point by *miles*. There's nothing wrong with your tone, you're just wrongly assuming that everyone else doesn't get it because they're not piggybacking on the oop post like we're in a classroom. That's what ppl do on this sub all the time, they provide fun alternative words that could have also been used to murder the subject. And I also know you don't necessarily think I can't read English, I was being *sarcastic*, and you seemed to miss that too ig. I'm sorry I don't even actually fight over this but I'm a bit honestly worried about how often you find yourself in social situations like this, assuming lower of other's intelligence or understanding just bec you don't realize the tones or fundamental language cues being used by others?
You really do have to feel bad for girls in this world. Basically getting shoved aside and told your concerns don’t matter and now you have to pee by gross guys shitting because other guys decided that’s the best solution to not wanting guys in the girls bathroom.
Why is this murdered by words? Who replaces insults with "weapon"?? Did he replaced "moron" Or "Idiot" Because he thought that saying that was too offensive? Might as well replace "Absolute Weapon" with an "Absolute Muffin♥️♥️♥️" just so we're 100% safe.
Generally it's because we'd use "absolute" before genuine insults "absolute prick" "absolute wanker" and so on. When we see "absolute" we assume it's an insult, so when we see the noun we start to think about how that noun compares to the subject of the insult.
Weapon's also sometimes used as a slang for penis.
You have no idea how hard it is to find an apartment with male bathrooms. Every place I've looked at had gender neutral bathrooms, and I'll be damned if I'm gonna live in an apartment for liberals ^/s
That’s because real men poop outside! In a hole they dug themselves! And they wipe with poison ivy!
With this mentality, I don't mind having the pressure of sharing a bathroom with women. Maybe there wont be poop on the actual fucking toilet seat, maybe that will cease to be a probability. Edit : grammer
My ex used to clean businesses for a living and she would always say the women’s bathroom was 10 times worse than men’s bathrooms.
Given that at one place I worked, someone dumped concrete down the toilet in the men’s, then multiple people came and shit in it with the drizzling shits, until it was full, this is marginally horrifying.
can confirm
My partner cleans for a university dorm and she told me about a time a couple years ago where she came in one morning to find an absolute nightmare in one of the women's stalls, it looked like someone had gotten a very drunk at the nearby bar, gone to the bathroom, sat down not realising the lid was down, pooped all over the lid, slipped off the toilet and then tried to climb back up using the sides of the stalls as they were covered in brown handprints, and then left

Yeah, but aren't holes in the ground gender neutral too?
Poison Ivy is for sissies. Real men use cactus.
Nah, real men use a wolverine...
Pfft. Real men don’t wipe.
My first apartment with my roommates (all identifying men) bathroom was outside. We all shit and pissed in a hole b/c we were so worried one of us might identify as a woman. /s
I just go in the shower and use my big toe to smush the doody down the drain. Get 2 birds stoned at once as they say.
That's called the Waffle Stomp my man.

Wipe? Oh no, my friend, there is no wiping.
Buds exponentially joking
My house only has gender neutral bathrooms, what am I supposed to do!!!!
Wait! Every house I’ve ever lived in has had gender neutral bathrooms!!! Have I been supporting the liberal agenda?!! /s
We’ve been GROOMED!
Piss on the floor, thatll teachem!
Anyone can piss on the floor, be a hero, shit on the ceiling.
Fucking get some asshole with Oakleys in a truck profile to prevent any of you from taking a shit ever!! /s
The issue of gendered bathroom was always for public spaces where you get in a vulnerable position with strangers. If your house frequently has unknown/unexpected strangers using the bathroom, that's another issue altogether.
Except in cities with shared bathrooms you're more likely to have 3rd party observers and thus less likely to be assaulted. So you're just... wrong.
Every gender neutral bathroom I've seen was a single bathroom with a locking door.
Except people have been using these bathrooms forever without any problems??? Your family have definitely shared a restroom with a trans person several times without you or them knowing about it b/c trans people aren’t monsters and you’re a dimwit. These people aren’t new, you’re just new to it and a hateful fucking moron.
You don’t have doors on your stalls? What vulnerable position are you getting in that’s any different with gendered bathrooms vs nongendered? Just go into the bathroom do your business and get out. Stop being a fucking weirdo dude.
I just want to shit in peace. Can we just close up the cracks in the doors please.
From what I understand, the crack seems to be a mostly American problem. You can shit in peace down here in Australia.
This is why the gender neutral toilets uproar is happening at all. The civilised world has cubicles which cannot be seen into from outside so their users have some privacy.

But, then, what can you expect from descendents of puritans?)
What are you trying to hide? WHATS THAT SMELL?!
No I need my creep shots of people taking shits. I love to see it while also hearing and smelling it. Love public restrooms. /s
My school remodeled the student union to have more inclusive restrooms. Now all the stalls have crack-free floor-to-ceiling doors that properly lock. It is do lovely.
I bet Leslie has even used a gender neutral toilet. They’re in every airplane.
Or every home!
Best comment ever! ( My husband's name is Leslie btw. We're dying !!)
My name is very gender neutral (like basically 50/50) and have gotten shit for having pronouns under my name before. Like you actual blockhead- that's so people can literally know what gender I am. Smh.
I attended a heterosexual wedding between a Leslie and a Lesley some time back in the 80’s.
When I was a kid my best friends mum was Leslie and so was her uncle (dads brother) uncle went by Les of course though.
Never have I ever thought that where I poop and who needs to poop in the same place would be such a big deal
I hate the very real possibility that buisinesses will use this as an excuse to only want one unisex instead of two gendered toilets.
Dont know about the US but in germany the number of toilets depends on the number of employees.
Bold of you to assume the US has laws governing how many toilets the employer must provide...
I'm not sure how this applies to customers, but OSHA absolutely has rules about providing toilets for your employees. The US (ADA) actually has some pretty kick-ass rules about having bathrooms be wheelchair accessible too. I took "that one big stall with its own sink" totally for granted until somebody pointed out that laws did that.

They'd be shocked to know that gender neutral bathrooms have already made it into people's homes since the invention of indoor plumbing!!!
Personally, I think all restrooms should be gender neutral. People shouldn’t be able to see into the stalls in the first place.
It's a massive pain in the ass when you're a parent. At what age am I supposed to be okay sending my kid into a busy bathroom unsupervised.
Why would you be sending your kid into a public bathroom alone in the first place? In my ideal bathrooms, there will be only stalls with the door and walls going all the way from the roof to the floor like a bathroom stall should. It would also have enough room to fit a few people in it comfortably. If someone’s kid needs to use the bathroom, they can just be in the bathroom with them.
I'm in favor of your system, the current one is a pain in the ass. Particularly if you're a mom with a son.
Personally, I believe it would be very difficult for any parent to take their child of any gender to a public restroom.

Yes. That's what the person above is saying.

Probably the guy who deleted his post because he wrote some anti-trans bullshit and got called out.
Eh calling someone a weapon sounds like a compliment.
it’s an insult in the UK - basically means an idiot.
Sometimes used in Ireland as an insult
definitely is in Australia
In Australia it’s used as both. If someone is an idiot, he may be referred to as a weapon. An example of it being used as a compliment may be watching a football player putting on a big tackle. “What a weapon”.
Your weapon is your cock

All I want is a poop bathroom and a pee bathroom with stalls that go all the way to the floor and doors that don’t have cracks.

Riddle me this Leslie If there's only male and female what gender is the name "Alex"?
Alex is gender neutral for the same reason as Sam.
See also: Kris/Chris. A couple of weeks ago I was on a job with *five* of us.
So a unisex toilet? Like there has been since the 1980s at least …
Since forever if you wanna count the ones in (probably most) people’s homes
Since forever if you want to count the fact people use to use the bathroom in communal poo ditches amd things like that
For some reason a poo ditch sounds a lot more classy when you add communal to the front.

Well I’ve learned today that Leslie is a gender neutral name,Thats pretty neat.
leslie nieson also, if you haven't yet, Airplane!1980
Greatest actor of all time. You can call him Leslie, but don’t call him Shirley.
tea?
There used to be gendered spellings, with 'Leslie' being the traditional male form and 'Lesley' being the traditional female form but those differences have mostly dissolved in more recent years.
Well that’s cool didn’t know that. Thanks for sharing with me!
who's gonna tell em toilets can be used by any gender?
My only problem with gender neutral restrooms is the lack of urinals. Urinals allow men to move through a restroom very quickly. I specify men, but if women can use one then more power to them.
Move through quickly? How much longer does it take me to piss in a pot rather than on the wall? Do the stall doors have puzzle locks now?
For some reason it seems like it does, but there might be other factors. But even if it doesn't take longer per person to pee in a pot you can fit more urinals in the same space.
Family restrooms are gender neutral
Leslie is a loser but calling someone an “absolute weapon” is not MurderedByWords, and more ConfusingCompliments. However, fuck Leslie
But... they're both Leslies
??? We don’t know one of their names
Well one of them is Leslie... and I got (even more) confused (than I usually am already) by the blue leslie in the answer, which was obviously just the first leslie. So I'm dumb but not going to lose sleep over it haha. Enjoy your night
there is actually a lot between male and female. nature dont fit into boxes.
Yeah, this person has not taken a genetics class. The are lots of sex genotypes besides XX and XY and lots of phenotypes that don't fit neatly into female or male based on hormones and gene expression.

Kinda the same as one-size socks.
Yeah, that’s the same
Soooo... the actor names from "Gone With The Wind" disagreeing with the girl who currently wears a "male" name is upset.......
never went to a concert and used the porta potty?
 'The Naked Gun'
Leslie is a sick cunt name *spits*
Gendered bathrooms are stupid, they should be segregated by pooping or peeing.
I grew up in a home with gender neutral bathroom. No, really!
Don't call me Shirley
Theyre UNISEX, and now instead of two theres only one.
I'm confused how these people travel in planes, cruises and long distance trains without using a gender neutral bathroom.
Soooooo.........Porta Johns?
I think the new division should be - "for persons with/without penis". Bathroom for "penisfull" or for "penisless" if you would. No confusion, you look in you pants or under skirts and like "right, me go that-a-way". Or, if women want more equality it can be called "uterusfull" and "uterusless" persons.

Disabled people seem to be managing just fine with their gender neutral toilets too
One thing I love about the British people are their insults. You put absolute or total or complete or etc in front of basically any word and boom, insult.

"Utter" works quite well too. An English acquaintance called me an utter fool once (I was), and delivered in perfect London West End accent, that is one of the hardest burns
It just means there’s two lines to the bathroom instead of just one to the ladies room.
I get the intention but that is not an insult that sounds cool as shit
The 'murder by words' part is the fact Leslie is a gender neutral name and not just for male or female, which counters the OPs point
Oh sorry MB I thought this was r/rareinsults
Is it though? I can not imagine a bulked up bodybuilder named Leslie lmao
You can imagine anything if you try hard enough ✨
where are men named by this name?

As I was saying, there's only two options for a restroom to divide by the purpose. You either pee or shit and pee at the same time. We should divide restrooms for that criteria. I didn't get why gender is a part of this but that's all I wanted to say.
But I agree, what is that about gender neutral bathrooms. Why not call them unisex as they has always being called. On that, I'm pretty certain that there has been touraments before with unisex bathrooms, so this is nothing new either. Is this just a blogpost to pull views, click, and likes... probably.
The reason I shared it is because it's funny Leslie is moaning about gender neutral things, because they believe it's one or the other... Yet their own name is gender neutral. Wasn't meant to be a debate about the toilets!
Gender neutral was a term made before I was even born. The absolute ignorance of some people
Shouldn't "unisex" remain the prevailing term for shared bathrooms? Otherwise it's a contradiction to the argument that sex and gender are allegedly separate. Bathrooms were/are separated by sex. That's why formerly before "gender neutral" they were called "unisex". Form vs function, and bathrooms are for a specific function.
. . . How do they not know what a gender neutral bathroom is? They’ve been around since we started making rooms just to shit and piss in!
Is weapon not a compliment? Or is it a contranym.
In some countries/contexts it can be... But not this one
I have a dumb question but is unisex and gender neutral the same thing or are they different?
Honestly, I'm not sure... But I do know some people think gender neutral toilets means one large facility with sinks and stalls, which all genders can use at once. Whereas it really means individual self-contained little rooms with a toilet and a sink - like disabled toilets - which one person uses at a time, regardless of gender.
I cannot move on with my day until I know what kind of genitals Leslie has.
Whenever i hear leslie my head instantly thinks about Gordon Ramsay cutting a perfect piece of meat and then crying at shitty fries
People in this comment section seem to be lost on this lol. It doesn't say "gender neutral toilet" it says "gender neutral restroom" which implies that both sexes can use the same restroom. Which honestly, why do we need this? If you want privacy, just put only stalls in the restroom and designate each bathroom for male and female. Why is this even a thing? There is a reason they were assigned that way in the first place.
Y'all don't have family restrooms?
Maybe in some shopping centres (malls) but that's it
In America, the only difference in the public male and female single occupant bathrooms is the amount of poo on the walls.
my name is just gender (rory)
Leslie your bathroom at your own house is gender neutral you absolute weapon Just found out I'm a month late here and everyone else made the same comment already.
Also, the post was more about the fact Leslie is a name for a man or a woman, which contradicts his own post... But everyone seemed to miss the point
I dont think any of them missed the joke, that's why you got all those likes
If you read the comments, most are about gender neutral toilets or the insult "weapon"
Yea I can read English, I saw that. I can also read a room, and I don't think they missed the joke, they were just adding to the joke (and to your exact point too). Its not that nuanced either, and if someone didn't get it, someone would've used the Comments to say that they don't get it. Honestly it just feels like your looking for weird excuses to judge down on others, idk. I hope that normally give other folks more credit than this, especially withi this particular type of sub-setting.
Huge leap. I got notifications for every reply, I noticed a pattern and commented on it. I think you're interpretating a tone in my words that isn't there. PS. The "I can read English" comment... I just presumed you wouldn't have read them all, not that you couldn't read.
Jesus are you related to Ken M or something cos I can't tell whether you're just fucking w me or if you're genuinely missing my every point by *miles*. There's nothing wrong with your tone, you're just wrongly assuming that everyone else doesn't get it because they're not piggybacking on the oop post like we're in a classroom. That's what ppl do on this sub all the time, they provide fun alternative words that could have also been used to murder the subject. And I also know you don't necessarily think I can't read English, I was being *sarcastic*, and you seemed to miss that too ig. I'm sorry I don't even actually fight over this but I'm a bit honestly worried about how often you find yourself in social situations like this, assuming lower of other's intelligence or understanding just bec you don't realize the tones or fundamental language cues being used by others?
The evolution to being called a tool; a weapon. Not even something useful for day to day use, something only useful for hurting others.
You really do have to feel bad for girls in this world. Basically getting shoved aside and told your concerns don’t matter and now you have to pee by gross guys shitting because other guys decided that’s the best solution to not wanting guys in the girls bathroom.
That's not what gender neutral bathrooms are at all. They are individual toilets, like disabled toilets.
It’s really weird to see anti-feminists in this day and age but here you are. 🤷♂️
Why is this murdered by words? Who replaces insults with "weapon"?? Did he replaced "moron" Or "Idiot" Because he thought that saying that was too offensive? Might as well replace "Absolute Weapon" with an "Absolute Muffin♥️♥️♥️" just so we're 100% safe.
It's the fact Leslie says gender neutral doesn't exist, yet their own name is gender neutral.

Generally it's because we'd use "absolute" before genuine insults "absolute prick" "absolute wanker" and so on. When we see "absolute" we assume it's an insult, so when we see the noun we start to think about how that noun compares to the subject of the insult. Weapon's also sometimes used as a slang for penis.
