TO THE ASSHOLE(S) WHO PUT A SIGN UP THAT SAYS: “Ladies, please be respectful and clean up after yourselves.”

You call me a lady as if you know anything about me. You expect me to conform to your title like a docile, doe eyed nymph, with no mind of her own. I am NOT a lady. I am a human. I may not even have a vagina. I may be an uber-feminine chick, a trans-woman, a sorority girl, of any sexual orientation or fit no stereotype whatsoever. You act as though because I identify with some form of feminine gender, that I have to conform; that I am not capable of being “respectful” or “clean” without your pathetic reminder, as though you are using your crook on a group of little ewes. YOU DISGUST ME.

WE WILL NOT CONFORM to your patriarchal hierarchy. We do not need a reminder to keep our space clean, and we will NOT be called “ladies.” Your dictatorship is over. Any time a sign like the offensive trash you put up before is put up on a bathroom wall, WE WILL TEAR IT DOWN. You have been warned.
