I hope your tongue was deep in your cheek when you typed your message.
I'm a 66 year old who usually flies in FC. But when not flying in the front cabin, my Handicapped Motor Vehicle ID and my CO Elite status both entitle me to sit in the first several rows of coach. Once meal/beverage service begins, it becomes quite difficult for me to negotiate the length of the aisle to get to the rear loo.
My way of dealing with this situation is to alert a FC FA during or just after the boarding process that I may need to use the FC loo during the flight. I've never been rebuffed.
