I tend to frequent the same places most of the time, so I am generally in familiar territory when I need to use the bathroom. Since most of the patrons and staff know me, I have never encountered any hostility in my choice. When I was preop, I was concerned about making cis women uncomfortable in the ladies room, but I felt uncomfortable in the men’s room, especially as my appearance started to change. It was an awkward time. Now that I am postop, I have no problem entering women’s private spaces with confidence, though I still try to choose points in time when the foot traffic is at a minimum. There is still some residual angst involved. I can still be clocked, but it is getting harder every day. At least I’m over the hump.
