59. Absolutely agree

It's absolutely twisted than an individual would expect women to submit to some sort of test that proves they possess the proper amount of femininity in order to use the bathroom. Who determines which women are chosen to prove credentials? Is it all off us? Do I need to yank out my diva cup to prove I bleed?

What about cis women with short hair, flat chests, and gender neutral clothing? Will they need to submit to some type of pre-potty femininity test in order to pee?
