Do you use the Ladies Toilets? Yes or No? When dressed Femme.

Hi Fiona, I'm assuming you are asking "When dressed en femme which toilet do you use?"  So I answered that I use the Ladies Toilet when fully in female mode.  But when in male wear, I use the men's toilet - otherwise I'd definitely be causing a stir.

And another BUT, there has been times when I was dressed in male mode and going into the men's toilet when I've been stopped and told that I'm going into the wrong toilet (at Costco, at hotels, at restaurants) - and that I should be using the ladies toilet.  I guess I do a good job in passing (and without any makeup) even while dressed in male wear.  It does drive my SO crazy that I'm so often mistaken for female.

When I'm out as Patty, I always use the ladies toilets. I don't make a big thing about it or try to time when I go in. I just go in, go in a stall do what I went in there for and leave.

I wouldn't even consider the gents if I'm femmed up - always use the facilities appropriate to your appearance.

Hi Fiona,

Good Pole Fiona!!

Ahh heck, I just pull what's left of it out and pee on the floor!!!  LoL

Of course I use the ladie's restroom! I would never consider using the mens!! However, where I live, many of the newer and larger establishments are now providing us with Unisex Restrooms, which I opt for when available....

When I'm out shopping as amber.with my woman coworker or my new woman friend my landlady.i always use womens room just go in do my business and go on from there.just be like all the woman in there

I couldn't imagine using the men's when I "get my Anne on". 🙂

As I usually present as a man regardless what I am wearing, I generally use the men's restroom.  This has been awkward if I need to wait for a stall which I use exclusively if I am wearing a dress or skirt.  I do, however, use the women's restroom if I am presenting as a woman.  I have never had an issue using either as above.  In either case, I take care of business and exit.  As someone else mention, I will elect to use a family or unisex bathroom, if available, for inconvenience.

The 1st time I went out as Brianna I used the men's room and after I came out my girlfriends told me that I used the wrong bathroom and next time let them know when I needed to go and they would go with me to the ladies room. Awesome friends!

I will always use the ladies toilet or a unisex toilet when presenting as female.  It just makes sense and is the safest option.  Being discovered in the men's toilet by a homophobe/transphobe could be quite dangerous.  Of course common sense should always prevail.  Be aware of your environment and avoid places you're likely to be unwelcomed.

I went to a outlet mall fully dressed en femme that was futher away from where I was used to shopping. Ordinarily I wouldn't be that far away from my home and I could wait until I get home to use the toilet. However this time I knew that I couldn't wait until I got home and I needed to relieve myself I found the food court and saw a sign that said Ladies Room. Holding my head high I walked down the hallway and saw that there wasn't a door just a open doorway that led into the ladies room. I stepped into the room and saw two rows of stalls some open and some occupied I went into a open stall where I relieved myself then went to where the sinks were where I washed my hands and touched up my makeup This was the first time I had ever used a Ladies Room and it was such a beautiful experience for me that I always use a Ladies Room when I have the need to Thank you for letting me tell my experience

This is a very simple yes.

Would a guy use the girls bathroom, or a girl use a guys bathroom in a "normal" setting? No.

So you, presenting as a female (real or not) should 100% use the bathroom labeled for said gender.

With this being said, use your manners and be and act lady like.

Here are some helpful hints:

1. Sit to pee, would a girl face the bowl and aim for it? No, so sit you butt down!

2. Act like you're suppose to be there, because you are!

3. Don't peep or gawk...Creeper!

4. If you are NOT alone, comment on their outfit, shoes, purse....Small talk.

5. I always bring a tampon in my purse...it's not for you silly! But the poor girl in need of a life saver! Be that wing-girl, she will NEVER forget you!

6. Always, do a once over in the mirror. Wig, lipstick, overall look check. Check yourself out, it's okay! Just a no judgement reset before you go back into the wild!

Hope this helps you!

Usually the mall/shopping centers, etc. have a room for families for a  parent of the other gender can either change a baby or help a toddler.  I try to use them.  Legal issue are too great for the ladies room and I would not be comfortable going into a men's room dress en femme.  But I try not to use public restrooms at all and attempt to avoid them for my home instead.
