A video has gone viral of a male Karen calling the cops on a father because he chose to take his two little girls into the ladies room of a QuikTrip gas station. The gentlemen of X are kinda split on whether this was a good idea or not. Personally, I defer to the dad in the situation that he assessed the mens room and decided for whatever reason that it was unacceptable so he made a business decision.

But, the ladies of X have decided almost unanimously that carrying your daughters in a male bathroom is unacceptable because they 100% are going to be subjected to a bunch of penises and that the mens room is a place where pedos hang out just waiting for unsuspecting fathers to take their girls so they can jump at the chance to expose themselves. I think this comes from a lack of knowledge that there is an unwritten mens room code that basically runs across all ages, races, backgrounds, etc. We all go by the same rules. So, I would like to enlighten the ladies as to the rules we go by.

#1 - You will not take your dick out for anyone else to see. This is non-negotiable. I've been going to the bathroom for 4 decades and never seen this rule violated. Anyone that breaks this rule is subject to violence.

#2 - No eye contact. You look straight ahead at the wall or at your own dick. One or the other. Again, violation of this rule is grounds for termination.

#3 - You don't choose a urinal beside another man unless it's the only option available. You always leave a buffer if you are able. If you break this rule, you are gay. That's the rule.

#4 - No chatter. Don't talk the guy next to you. Now, there are exceptions to this rule, but it pretty much always happens at a bar, concert, or sporting event. Acceptable chatter would be something like "Gotdam did you see that catch?" or "Guitarist A just murdered that set wtf". Also acceptable is "man im so fricked up I cant see straight". It may be annoying but not a total violation.

ETA: Rule #5 is if there are other guys in there you make an attempt to wash your hands. As a grown man, you've pissed outside a million times without washing your hands, but you don't want to seem like a slob in front of the other guys so go through the motions as if touching your dick with two fingers is so disgusting that you must immediately rid yourself of the nastiness.

Any others I'm leaving out?

Asking the guy next to you, “Is this where the dick heads hang out?”

Not cool. Funny, but not cool.

I have always taken my daughter into the men’s room when she was too young to go on her own. Clearly the right call. But I don’t really blame the father, just kind of dumb. The guy who called the cops is an idiot and a-hole. I probably encouraged my daughter to go to the bathroom on her own quicker than I did my son just for that reason. It’s a tough situation. I don’t care what Facebook bitches say or your dick code you made it about

I don’t think I’ve ever really seen a penis in the bathroom either, now that I think about it.

In this situation if you’re the dad I think your move is to being them into the men’s room and immediately into a stall.

The rule is you can talk to anybody on the same level as you. If you’re in a line you can speak to line people. If you’re at a urinal you speak to urinal people (or nobody). If you’re at the sink, same thing. But you don’t stand at the urinal and talk to someone at the sink. That’s just blasphemy.

Then you have punk asses that violate both of these simultaneously.

Those people deserve life in prison.

Ive used the woman's bathroom at a gas station many of times if the mens is locked.

Of course these were one person bathrooms that lock so im not sure if that applies here.

As a woman, I don't care that he walked his daughters in there.

What I might have done in that situation is let them go in but keep the door cracked with my back to it so I could hear everything my kids were doing.

At least that's how we handled toileting with the 3-5yr olds at church- ears open but give everyone their privacy.

I saw a woman take her father into the men’s room at an lsu basketball game. I told her, you do realize this is the men’s room (said on the outside of the rest room. She said yes. Out of respect for the woman going into the men’s room with her elderly father, the rest of the men left the men’s room and let her in

When my girls were younger and I found myself in a situation where I absolutely had to have them go into the girls bathroom and my wife/mom/sister/MIL was not around, I’d stay by the door to where I could see their shoes under the stall without completely going in.

Not faulting this guy, it’s kind of a shite situation to be in as a father of small girls and old-man-Karen should have realized that and opted not to be a douche.

A man should have no issue taking his daughters into a women's bathroom. But if possible, have a woman to check if its clear

I have two young daughters and typically took them into the men's stall if I was out with them. But I don't blame the guy. We all know damn well women's restrooms are most likely cleaner than men's. The cop calling guy sounds like a bitch.

This was a single seater bathroom, right? If so, this is no big deal at all in the father did the right thing.

True.

I’ve NEVER seen a dude parading his dick around the men’s room.

Looks like a store employee was there with them. It's their place of business, their call. So the fact that they are there and not saying anything for the dad to get out pretty much settles it for me. No different than someone coming to use the john at my house. Case closed.
