NTAH. If they had told you they were using the men's stall as well, then maybe. It sounds like they didn't do a good job at explaining the situation.
to be fair I did understand the situation when she said there's shared queue, but just assumed since the stall I wanted to go to was designated for men, then me going in before them would be in accordance to generally accepted social cohabitation rules. similarly, disabled parking spots by law should always be left available for disabled drivers, but it's commonly accepted that everyone can leave their car there AS LONG AS they will be able to free the spot the very moment a disabled person drives up to it (so preferably without even leaving the vehicle)
I get your reasoning, however it should be said that bathroom planning for women has long been sexist/ignorant - usually there are way too few stalls for women. Since they can't use urinals, e.g., they just need more than men. There are studies that have shown that
Oh yeah, that I have no doubt about. I don't quite see how this applies to my particular situation though
One queue for both toilets? That makes zero sense
The restrooms are each operating at capacity. How doesn't it make sense?
Someone leaves the mens toilet, making a space free.
10 women are queuing in front of you. Its one queue.
You now have to wait for the 10 in front of you until you can use the mens toilet?
As a brit I am a master at queuing as the stereotype goes /s
edit - getting downvoted, so someone explain what I am missing here.
If the women are not using the mens toilet, why do those waiting for the mens toilet have to queue with the women waiting for the womens toilet? Or is OP actually stating the toilets are not separated by gender?
The women were using the men's toilet as well.
I mean it does make sense when there's only one gender present to use them
The post doesn't say, but I assume you are a man? Lol
You're both right I didn't specify that and that I in fact am
Oh shit that changes everything. I assumed you were a woman and thought you were such an asshole. I was so confused by everyone here. I am in general annoyed by women using the men's room since I'd get the cops called on me if I used the women's room. Yeah not an asshole.
This was a good one, thanks for bringing it up
You're welcome?
No of course not. They are the assholes for using the men's room
NTA. They might have decided to take over both toilets, it was a shitty move on their part and they can fuck off. This is a gas station, not their sports locker.
