What to do about working in an office with noninclusive bathrooms? I don't feel comfortable there and have been walking 10mins away to a coffee shop to do my business.

If you’re referring to the Brooklyn office, we do have inclusive bathrooms. They’re on the 1st floor. I use them often...

no longer with VICE, it's a different employer.

Wow very surprised to hear that VICE isn’t offering that given their progressiveness.
May I ask what specifically makes you uncomfortable about it? Is it how people react? Or is it simply the absence of that option?
You may want to consider going to HR and formally stating your desire to have a neutral bathroom. They might be able to help (if they are good people that care about employee wellness).

It's the absence of the option. Unfortunately I have zero faith in the HR as it relates to caring about people

Is there a supervisor or someone higher up you can take up the issue with that might advocate for you? Or a group of people who would get behind you to take it to HR?

You should not feel like you are bothering. It's the same thing as asking for an ADA compliant bathroom - could be a good reference to position it

Just wanted to say, as a guy in my mid-20’s, cheers to all the 30-40+ y/o LGBTQIA+ folks here—I know we roll our eyes at the performative rainbows on everything now, but you folks made this possible for the rest of us—you fought for acceptance, for our rights, and you made it through the struggle so people my age don’t have the same weight to carry, so we don’t have to be as afraid.
We have a long way to go, and I’ll carry the torch too, but I really think y’all deserve more gratitude. Happy 🏳️‍🌈

I’m sure it’s not new to 2022, but I’m feeling more than ever this year how much of “corporate pride” centers around gay men and calls it “lgbtq”. Are gay women, bisexuals, etc. not as palatable for audiences? I’m struggling with this a bit.

It is really hard to do well in this business without sacrifice and my partner doesn't like it. To be fair that sacrifice is her... Most nights,over the weekend, and during every meal. She deserves better but I either sacrifice time or sacrifice earning potential.

I don't know how to solve this problem.
