^^ i can relate...a bit.
having to adapt to segregation is easy for folks that was fringed to begin with...
and it's a two-way blade, one i have NO qualms using it against the policy enforcers.
it's also a given, that when rules apply to a specific group, they're totally flexible and optional toward the protected (they don't know the true meaning of 'victim' yet. keeps up, they will) and pretty much certifies it as PLUTOCRACY RULE!
...
on the other hand, out yesterday doing menial degrading shit, shopping and queues, in the breadline.
had to use a public loo in the center of the bus station.
there's two.
one for males, the other, females. (and a specialist loo for wheelchairs and the aged of any gender)
the male loo was full, and i was literally pissing myself.
looked at the disabled loo, same story.
the womens shitter on the other hand, surprised there was nobody in there.
a conductor on his break was stood opposite to the structure, so i stated as a matter of fact:
look, dude, i know you have better things to do, but i'm using the female bogs, or i piss on the floor.
if you call the rozzers based on that, we have a serious problem. capiche?!
he respond:
yeah, i'm on my break, not paid to give a fuck what happens, make of that what you will.
my job is to drive the germ-wagons, not paid to care outside that.
as you were.
...
WOOHOO!
in short, all was well.
nobody actually noticed me walking out, or cared?!
...
still, i won't piss myself in the street, and i'll STILL use womans bogs if nobody in them.
and another point:
women can and DO use male bogs themselves.
as far as the fuckhead masses are concerned, nothing wrong, no such thing as female nudity...that kind of folks.
i don't have an issue there, which is why i use theirs on occasion, and make NO apologies for that.
...
and agreed, my will to live is corrupt, to the point i'm having thoughts along the lines of prince philip, and that's the self-warning i'm turning into 'one of them' and becoming the thing despised.
i won't let it happen, it fucks em off to see me alive, stealing their oxygen and resources...metaphorically speaking.
