    ...why they put furniture into a woman's restroom. She claims she didn't know, and then asked, "They don't in men's bathrooms?" I said, "Nope. All we get is what the plumbers put in there." Of course, as men, we have no reason to be in a bathrom for reasons other than to evacuate various bodily excretions. In fact, we're not even allowed to talk to each other in there...

    I thought is was so they could relax and watch the DVD, with a glass of chilled wine? It's the only explanation I have come up with for how they can spend that long in there...

      Of course women get edible toilet paper. (It is the only explanation as to how quickly a roll disappears when you have women in the house).

            At our corporate HQ, there was a black obelisk cabinet next to one of the sinks, and it caused consternation among the the guys of the office. As men would pass each other at the entrance to the bathroom there would be comments like "What's that?" "Dunno" "Maybe they just ran out of storage space downstairs". In the end, it just ended up being the place where we stacked the newspaper during the week.

              A woman's restroom isn't just a toilet/watercloset/restroom, it's a social gathering place. The furniture is so that they can relax and get off their feet while complaining/bragging about the guy they're with.

                At a pub in Lichfield it was because you couldn't open the cubicles from the inside so you needed the other one to kick the door open when you had finished. Or so I was reliably informed.

                    Ever watch the office (US version... UK is good also but this reference is from US) There is a scene where Gabe goes into the ladies room because Kelly (the secratary) went in (they 'were' dating). She lectures him about comming into the ladies room (it is quite elaborate in there.. couch and all). Shortly after Creed (the older guy) walks out of the can buttoning up his pants and says "Not cool Gabe. Not cool at all." Man that sceen was freaking hillarious. But on a non OT note, would't it be because they are womany and like fluffy pertty things around them? Where as we men are well more about other stuff. In fact you should ask your self why we don't have manly things in our B-Rooms.... Like, when I drop a bomb but don't get any sound affects I am quite dissappointed. There should be a button in the stall that I can press that broadcasts a sound for me :laugh: Or how about instead of standard urinals we have urinals like those water games at the carnies. You aim for the hole and the little thingy rises to the top and then DING DING! Woo hoo I won!

                    Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

                      To quote Tevye: TRADITION! It goes back to the mid/late 1800s, when it became more socially acceptable for ladies of quality to be out in public places like theaters. In an effort to attract more women, fashionable venues created "lady's lounges" where women could go to escape the menfolk and their "rough" talk. To get to the women's toilets a woman typically had to go through the lounge, which offered a degree of protection against unwanted attentions. Even after women became more integrated in public life in the early 1900s, furniture remained in women's rest rooms for a very practical reason. When you are wearing a dress, bustle, and all the other accoutrements of female clothing, it becomes a production to undress sufficiently to use a toilet. With a limited number of stalls, fancy establishments would provide -- and still provide, apparently -- a place to sit down while waiting for the facilities to become available.

                        There should be a shelf of reading material. I used to go in a pub, many years ago, can't remember where, and there were toilets in the urinals. By which I mean the urinal backs were some clear material and there were screens set in the wall behind them showing sports.

                          I worked with someone that changed their gender from male to female. All of the other women would know it was her in the restroom because she refused to talk to the others. She went in, did what needed to be done, and left.

                                One time, the guy next to me asked me "How's it going, eh?". Well I beat the crap out of him. Then he said thanks for the help. :)

                                  ...why they put furniture into a woman's restroom. She claims she didn't know, and then asked, "They don't in men's bathrooms?" I said, "Nope. All we get is what the plumbers put in there." Of course, as men, we have no reason to be in a bathrom for reasons other than to evacuate various bodily excretions. In fact, we're not even allowed to talk to each other in there...

                                  After leaving university I worked for a while at Butlins[^] in Bognor Regis. At the end of each night the women's toilets in the main venue were trashed. Bins overflowing or turned over, toilets full of all sorts of stuff, bottles and toilet paper everywhere, doors hanging off cubicles, mirrors smashed, sinks blocked and overflowing. Never anything wrong in the gents.

                                  Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

                                    There should be a shelf of reading material. I used to go in a pub, many years ago, can't remember where, and there were toilets in the urinals. By which I mean the urinal backs were some clear material and there were screens set in the wall behind them showing sports.

                                    I have seen urinals in a bar that had a newspaper page as the back of the urinal...It was current too. Not sure I'd wanna be the guy who had to change them out. (yes it was behind some protective plastic but still..)

                                      Pairs? More like packs or a gaggle (I'm not sure which is the proper operative word here to describe a group of females on their way to I would have assumed is only a pisser...)

                                        Well, it's at the end of a short hallway, and if you happen to be walking behind someone going into the bathroom, you can't help but notice the chairs and loveseat. I mean it's right there in front of you, fer christ's sake.
