"I'm scared of men in bathrooms" is, in fact, a prejudicial fear, however justified one believes it to be.
To break down bathroom fear, you have to address the feeling of fear, the dimension of affect.
Addressing affect does NOT mean repeating your justification for your prejudice. It means understanding the emotion of fear analytically. What is fear? What do we know about fear? What narratives does fear attach to and why?
