Ane Piżl has been promoting first aid in social media for several years and presenting the work of paramedics. Piżl emphasizes that she wants to be called a rescuer, not a rescuer. – I always say that the work in the rescue is hard, dirty and important, so the word “rescuer” fits her more than “rescuer”. And it is, in my opinion, a correctly formed form, as in the pair “sorcerer – witch” or “monk – nun” – she explained in an interview with “Wysokie Obcasy”.
Ane also very often talks about equality and respect for diversity. The educator openly says that she changed her name to a gender-neutral one, because in her ideal world, orientation and gender do not matter. As a non-binary person, he alternates between masculine and feminine forms. – In public space more often female, at home – male, in social media alternately – she betrayed.
Ane Piżl: I can’t count how many times I’ve been thrown out of the toilet
Recently, Ane published an important entry on her Instagram profile in which she confessed that she was sometimes discriminated against because of her appearance. She had unpleasant experiences in public women’s restrooms. She was asked to leave such places many times. She also often heard unpleasant comments about herself.
I can’t count how many times I’ve been thrown out of the toilet. It would be easier to count how many times it went without comments and mines. People stare, grunt, giggle, make comments ‘in the air’ or comment to a friend (‘is that a guy or a woman?’), even though I’m standing a meter away. Seriously. The security intervention at the airport is also no surprise to me. It is so bothersome that many times I prefer not to drink. And when there is a queue, I never wait in it, because then everyone (who is not staring at the phone) is staring at me, and sometimes someone “surreptitiously” (one meter from me) will take a picture
she revealed in her post.
“People who do this are neither fearful nor frightened”
The educator also added how we can behave if we are not sure of the gender of a person who has entered a public toilet.
I have a lot of empathy, so I understand that some woman might feel uncomfortable seeing a man in the women’s restroom. People have different experiences and fears, so seriously, I get it. But I see better strategies for dealing with this situation than grunting, staring at someone’s tits, and throwing loud comments into the air. People who do this are neither fearful nor frightened. They’re just plain rude. After all, if washing their hands next to a person of the opposite sex is too much for them, they could either go out and wait a minute or say, for example, “Excuse me, sir, I have a feeling you’ve got the toilets wrong.” Easy? If someone takes your seat in the cinema, you probably don’t grunt and comment in the air
she wrote.
The educator also appealed for mutual respect and sensitivity.
Just to be clear – I don’t need any separate neutral toilets. All you need is education: people look different, the world isn’t divisible in two, and everyone needs to pee. So take care of your bladder, and don’t meddle in other people’s pants
she wrote.
