I was just kicked out of a Dressing Room area/store for being a guy
- Thread starter Lost
- Start date
- Status
I have to say I've been shopping with my wife for near 15 years and never once been asked to leave the area outside of the dressing rooms in all female stores. Not even when it was super crowded. I've never even heard of it happening until today.
ofc not, the store is deff. a place for those things, i do it all the time
People have been ignoring Men's Rights, OP. Don't worry OP, it's just the way the world is now. Pretty soon us men won't even be allowed to leave our homes. Aaarrgggh
IT'S 2019 why cant men just go into women's dressing rooms all willy-nilly it's not like there's been a mass movement against sexual harassment committed by men against women for the past few years
this is the worst sexism ever :(

well there's yer problem, you just weren't """"""progressive"""""""" (his words) enough to take a walk through the changing areas. it's 2019, come on
this is like those situations in movies where the character could have just said the important thing but they are interrupted by something they could have ignored or just decide to say it later cause it's more convenient for the plot.
i hate that shit

It's not that difficult but would you expect any less from the socially awkward men of Era?
whew lad, what you're Not about to do is take the piss out of what actually happens to women being mistaken for men and trans women not being treated like they're women and compare that to your dumb ass taking a text from your girlfriend as a free ride to enter a women's clothing store's women's dressing room
How could I? The doors all lock and are individual stalls. I don't even understand the distinction you are trying to make.
This, especially with Charlotte Russe , don't they market more toward teen girls especially? When I'm with my S/O and she goes into V/S or any kind of store like that I generally wait in the common area or walk around some of the dumbass electronics kiosks that have taken over the niche sharper image used to have.
The OP was asked to leave the area in front of the dressing rooms.......
You know what, I don't even believe you have a girlfriend. It's too early in the week for a troll thread.
I don't know about this store, but I've been to some stores with gendered changing rooms where it was just curtains for privacy (which you can easily peer through from the sides).
Lol, the normal response to this situation is "my girlfriend asked me to come back here, sorry" without passive aggressive shit.
This has happened to me. I was just sincere and apologized and the staff was chill.
Like normal people.

I hope this isnt trolling just so it can be funny instead of try hard.
The person you quoted and the op were in the exact same *type of area but your response makes it sound like the guy you replied to was fine because the OP was going thru the actual rooms? OP never walked thru changing areas
I haven't really encountered any like that to my recollection. Plenty where the doors were exposed at the top and bottom like bathroom stalls though.
Edit: The last time I did this was at Lilly Pulitzer Secret Sale thingy and all of the women thought it was amazing and sweet that I was helping my wife out.
Haha, that was a pretty fast backfire. But seriously OP, I've tried on and purchased bathing suits at stores like that. I wouldn't appreciate random guys walking the dressing room hallways and maybe walking into my room :3 Stay out pls.
Where is the blinking Gritty gif?!
Ahh, you cant even blink, orange monster!
I mean, it wasn't even necessarily staff was it? The lady mentioned having girls back there, coulda been a parent.
I feel like if OP didn't act like a muppet and responded like a normal person it wouldn't have even been an issue.

As a woman who has both worked in and frequented these kind of stores, you didn't do anything wrong. It's completely normal for guys to wait in that area while their wives/girlfriends try on clothing. Are you sure it was the manager and not just some teenager's overly concerned mother? Granted being forthright about your reason for being there would have probably cleared things up.
Different stores have different setups for changing areas. Some are obviously meant to be more secluded, others are more open, some are divided by gender, others are mixed, and stores aren't going to all have the same policies for various reasons. If Store A doesn't want men in the women's changing area, "but Stores X, Y, and Z allow it" isn't a valid justification for why it should be allowed in Store A. It can be a one-time excuse in the vein of "oops sorry, didn't know" but to think it's sexism...HAH
Seriously lmao. Right after I finished reading the OP I just thought why wouldn't you just say your girlfriend is there? So strange.
