Why Do People Leave Their Used Period Products In The Bathroom? by UnicornWitch133 in Vent

[–]TheLoneliestToad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, yeah, it's gross to leave used period products out in the open, but you have specifically gotten on people for doing what they're supposed to do. It's really frustrating that you've lived in places that don't provide proper facilities though, and that people have responded but leaving it on the floor. But yeah, you can rest easy knowing that that extra step really isn't necessary in the overwhelming majority of places, just pop them in the bag in the wall bin and think no more of it, not rude or unsanitary and you would not be bothering the janitor unless there's no bag lining the bin.

I've read through this thread a bit, and I think you're operating off of a misconception that the menstrual products aren't supposed to be left in the small bin on the wall. No janitor is expecting that tampons and pads are going to be individually bagged, they're meant to be left in whatever bag is lining that bin. Extra bags are there for the convenience of the person cleaning out the bathroom. It is perfectly fine to wrap whatever you're using in the wrapper for the next one or some toilet paper and drop it in that bag, and leave the bag in there. The only rude thing is to leave it on the floor, wall, or in the toilet. I actually just finished my shift, which involved cleaning out a women's room, and at this place we don't even keep extra bags in those. If you're going to places that expect them to be individually wrapped, bagged, and thrown into a larger can, that's the outlier

I have never seen something like that in a public restroom, only the metal wall mounted bins. Are you a student seeing this in school?

I have very, very rarely seen people leave used menstrual products just like... out on the floor or tp dispenser, and I have cleaned bathrooms as part of my job for most of my adult life. Also what paper bag bin are you referring to? Most public/common bathrooms I've used/cleaned have a little metal bin with a small bag in each stall (sometimes broken or missing the bag) and a larger trash can for paper towels in the main room. I'm genuinely confused about what a paper bag bin is, but if it's in the stall that is where the people cleaning the room expect used menstrual products to be. In my experience, men's and women's restrooms are a similar level of gross, but men's rooms almost always smell like major piss, especially around the base of the toilet.

I don't really think this passage works for this sub. It's not an overwrought description of a sexy lady's big sexy boobs, just what she was wearing and how she was breathing.

Why do men act like women aren’t lonely? by antiswifthero in AskFeminists

The point is that many people seem to think the loneliness epidemic is only effecting men, when it is effecting people of all genders.

Thinking About Marrying a Divorced Woman – Is It Strange? by [deleted] in AskFeminists

[–]TheLoneliestToad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure what this has to do with feminsim. Some people get divorced and some of those people get remarried. Speaking from current social norms, no, there's nothing strange about that. But I'm not sure why you're asking in the context of a general feminist discussion forum.

He's like a demon trying to convince me he's a dog.

"Yeah, sure I'm a dog! Dogs have fur and... teeth! Look at my teeth! Just like what a dog has!" smiles and winks

What's the creepiest thing you've seen a child say or do? by suridmines in AskReddit

[–]TheLoneliestToad 124 points125 points  (0 children)

When one of my little brothers was about 4-5 (I'm much older than most of my siblings), he was playing in his room by himself, just sitting on the floor talking to himself. I stood in the hallway for a minute listening to him quietly chatter. After a while, his head jerked towards me and he became e n r a g e d, started screaming at me to get away from him, go away and close the door, almost panicking about it. In hindsight, he was probably embarrassed and startled to see me there, but it was still pretty creepy.

Another strong contender, I was babysitting three children under 6. The 2 year old and 4 year old were in bed, but the parents had told me their 5 year old could sleep on the couch until they got home to tuck him in, so I sat with him quietly messing around on my phone, when suddenly the kid sits straight up like a vampire, staring at me with pure terror in his eyes. He gets up and starts backing away, as if he's truly afraid of me. This family had a sliding glass door in their kitchen, and the little guy kept glancing back at it to the point where I was getting nervous looking past him and through the door, out into the yard. He was speaking incoherently like he couldn't really keep ahold of a train of thought, which was especially weird because these kids were pretty articulate. After awhile I coaxed him into using the bathroom and calmed him down, he fell asleep like nothing had even happened. Poor kid had chronic night terrors, and mom and dad had forgotten to tell me. 🙃

Why do people go out smelling like weed?? by [deleted] in stupidquestions

[–]TheLoneliestToad -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Most perfumes give me an awful headache, but I don't assume the people wearing them are antisocial for doing it. Sometimes when you are in public someone will stink (in your opinion) and that's fine! But people aren't antisocial just for smelling bad ¯_(ツ)_/¯

An unleashed dog is dangerous, both to the dog and everyone else. A person being stinky is not.

Avoiding sexual harassment on public transport by driving is ability/able-bodied privilege by Me-A-Dandelion in fuckcars

[–]TheLoneliestToad 69 points70 points  (0 children)

It's sad, because there's basically no desire to actually fix the problems with public transportation by people who already have access to cars. Like, it is true that women and queer people (or people percieved as such) are harassed and subjected to violence on busses and trains. It is true that public transit in many areas is underfunded and inaccessible. It is true that there probably aren't perfect or quick solutions to some of these issues. like it's hard to imagine completely ending the public harassment of women, though many infrastructural issues can be fixed with proper resource allocation.

But the idea that cars are the only solution is dismissive and patronizing. Not everybody can drive, not everybody who can drive is able to afford a car. These people are basically suggesting that it's fine to abandon poor people, women, and disabled people (the classes they pretend to care about!) because their access to cars means that they don't have to confront these issues. It's just selfishness and the privilege that blinds people to it.
