Women's Restroom
Quick question..... I went to the restroom at school the other day - the women's restroom of course - and I needed to change my clothes, so I went in the handicapped stall for the extra space (I had never looked inside this stall before, though I had used that particular restroom several times before), and much to my surprise and confusion, there was a urinal in the stall along with a toilet. So my question is, why on earth is there a urinal in the women's restroom??! Handicapped women are still women - they can't use a urinal!! And yes, I double-checked to see if it was the women's room, and there were other things in it that showed that it is undoubtedly a women's restroom. Hmmm......

Woah are you serious? Now that is bizare! Ok here are my theories... 1: they are trying to be more liberal and they realize that some cross dressing males need a place to pee so they conviniently put a urinal in the handicapped stall and hope that no one else will notice! 2. It used to be a joint bathroom but they changed it and just never took out the urinal. 3. The bathroom designer figured that maybe the person who was pushing the handicapped lady's wheelchair might need to go to the bathroom at the same time and that pusher person might be a male!!
My question is... how had you been in that stall before and never noticed it?? that's kind of a hard thing to miss!
Okay, I'm so glad I asked because those are some great theories that I just hadn't thought of! Whatever the reason, it all seems to come down to being accomodating to a larger population.....so I guess it's really a better bathroom....a "super bathroom" even. Wow, this is my new favorite bathroom!
Alright, Cass, I meant that I had been in that restroom, but had never gone in the handicapped stall!
"Pusher person"....is that the technical term??
hahahahaha I think the real reason for this dual urinal/ toilet is not meant for the specific hanicapped person but maybe aside from being a handicapped restroom it is also a stall with extra room for women to take their children.. and they have the urinal for boy children!! My question however would be that cnt men still pee in a toilet I mean why put urinal at all for any reason when they can just as easily go to the womens (cross dressers for example) and pee in the tall in the toilet!!! hm.. very weird!!! I find it odd on all accounts!! the only reason I suggest the parent/child theory is because the urinal is actually in the stall..and that is not needed unless people need to go at the same time.. otherwise if you are gunna put a urinal in it you may as well give it its own stall!! am i right or am I right!!!
oh by the way if i have a lot of words that are incomplete its cause this stupid keyboard doesnt seem to get all the letters.. you have to push really hard and its annoying and most of the time I get tired of constantly back spacing and retyping it so I don't care enough to go back.. just to let you know.. im not retarded!!
those all sound like great theories but i ahve to agree with kiera...it kinda makes sense that way! except if a kid is old enough to use a urinal, don't you think he's old enough to go into the men's restroom on his own? when moms bring their kids in, aren't they usually about parker's size and just sit on a normal toilet? maybe they thought that since the men have both urinals and toilets in their bathroom, they didn't want the women to feel cheated and like they didn't have the right to a urinal or something...they do seem to be going overboard these days with the whole "politically correct" stuff! and i've always wondered that too! why do men need a special toilet in public places, but i don't think i've ever been to a house with a urinal! and why are they so comfortable peeing infront of eachother? just because they can stand while they go means they don't need their privacy? weird...
haha because with a urinal they can just go in, do their business, and get out! Easy fast and no shutting doors or locking locks... they probably don't even wash their hands. Plus they can fit way more into a bathroom then they would if they had that many stalls... why do you think the men's lines are always shorter??
Wow, you guys have been a great help, and I so appreciate it. This has either shown me some good ideas for why there actually might be a urinal in the girls' bathroom, or that it is even more unexplanable and strange than I had originally thought. Ash, wow, what good points. Political correctness is totally a reasonable option. I mean, think about it, a guy can go in and has like a 4 by 2 foot area that they can just go crazy with, and what do we get: only one possible direction of squirt. It would be so much more fun to be able to go in, let it out basically where ever, and leave. Women everywhere must have been outraged - good someone finally did something about it...at ASU Sim building anyway.
Other good point: how wrong is it that they all just pee in front of each other!! I've actually thought about this one time and time again before the exisitance of this blog. Is it really humane to have stall walls so high with so many cracks, or nothing between people at all?? Some walls come up to just an inch below the top of the toilet seat....it's so wrong! I feel like some kind of animal peeing in groups of people with just a couple boards to separate us, and the boards don't even matter when you've got people glancing in the cracks...."oh, yeah, someone is in there, and wow, didn't need to see that". Do I need to say anything about my fear of using public bathrooms with children present?? I'm just glad I'm not a man, I think I would have died from some kind of bladder explosion by now and you'd all be brotherless....hm, nevermind.
Yeah, that was long enough I'm not going to proof-read.
haha brie you are too funny
haha i'm glad we could bring you some ideas about the issue! yeah, along with the thin walls and large cracks, i really don't enjoy hearing, or other people hearing me pee! how gross are potty sounds! :d
so then why in the world to girls go to the bathroom in groups??? i guess we know why guys don't!
hahaha I was on here last night and still feel i have missed sooo much!! so wy are we so ashamed of using the restroom.. i think ou guys are looking at it the wrong way.. maybe men have the right idea.. MAYBE just maybe instead of it being weird and not having enoug privacy.. maybe we have to much.. what do we need to hide.. everyone pees.. probably the same way.. thats why men do it infront of each other.. they all look the same and only use a little part of it..so you probably cant see to much.. although the gross part would be seening all this pee from other men.. yuck.. hey i wonder when they go in if they subconsciously choose who they stand by.. haha.. hm interesting.. but anyways.. the only reason women have stalls is cuz they do other stuff once a month.. that requires privacy!!! men have stalls to for other stuff maybe women should just have a couple!! haha jk.. im not really for that i like the stalls.. but if stupid little kids wanna be nasties and peek through the crack for whatever reason then thats their problem.. they get what they asked for hahaah!! but anyways.. im not sure about the political crrectness.. that would be silly. people wanna be equal but there are certain things for certain genders that cant be equalized.. un hello how can a woman use a urinal anyways.. it would be useless!!! im fine with everything the way it is.. except when there are long lines and i really gotta go.. and of course while camping bathroomless!!:)..
Alright, let's get things straight: I wake up nakey and Kie has a deep, passionate desire she's secretly had for years to pee in front of other women. If Cass and Ash would like to come forward and confess their bizarre, nearly nasty secrets, now would be the time.
Kie, your security reminds me of the other day when I was in the bathroom at ASU and two ladies came in talking and talking. They went to stalls on either sides of me so that I was in the middle their continued conversation while they went potty. One of the ladies was just ferfing and ferfing while she talked. I thought she must be a pretty secure lady.
Oh, and last night I went to the fight (woo hoo) and there was a he-she there, it reminded me of this blog all night. "It" had a large woman's body with a man's face and a very obvious receding hairline that "it" pathetically tried to cover with shoulder-length hair and long side bangs. Have you ever seen a woman with a receding hairline?? It was quite the sight, and pretty far back.
I appologize for any offensive material presented in this commentary.
sorry b, i don't have any nearly nasty bizarre secrets! i'm a little concerned about you and kie now though...anyway...you know i guess some places see it kie's way too...there was that bathroom at the melodrama in st. george that had two toilets in it and no stalls, and the bathroom in that gas station on the way to utah that only had a tiny wall inbetween the toilets. also, there was the wendy's on the way to our cabin that had one toilet without a door on one wall and the other on an adjacent wall with no door....i would think it would be really awkward going in those but whatever! also, the talking ladies! i don't know about you but i hate it when people talk to me when i'm going to the bathroom! it feels so awkward! haha...
Hahaha kiera you're scaring me! women's bathrooms with no stalls? SICK!
If they want to be politically correct then everyone should have the bathrooms like the ones in Italy... remember the hole in the ground? Men and women can use those! Ha!
Hey i do not want to pee in front o people.. just trying to make a point.. haha everyone is making bizarre points.. from the point of view of people who may have come up with the urinal suggestion!!! hm.. anyways.. yuck stupid ladies. ahha and you in the middle.. weird stuff happns at ASU/ bathroom-wise... oh and hello it person.. thats what camera phones are for brie
yuck! i did NOT like trying to pee in the gound! how do you know someone didn't miss and splatter all over the part you're standing on?? YUCK! i don't get those ones....haha gald to hear you don't ACTUALLY want to pee infront of people kie! haha
haha of couse not yuck!!! silly.. just an observation.. and yuck on the hole in ground
ok i just have to throw in here that today, i saw my teacher, MRS. hoodin go into the MEN's room....maybe some ladies like to try out the urinals! hahaha jk jk...
Hahahahahahahhahahahaha, oh man, that's just funny! Maybe the school did some kind of research on how often women go into the men's restroom and decided that it was actually was a problem. They figured it might help for the women to have men's facilities just to get it out of their systems (um, I guess that two mean more than one thing in this case...).
And Kie....YEAH RIGHT!!! You already said it, you can't take it back....you want to pee in front of other women and you know it!
haha! yeah b i guess you're right....asu's just trying to stop the insanity!!! haha
HAHAHAA THAT IS HILARIOUS... hahaha i can just see this little high schooler looking over to see her woman teacher walk into a mens restroom.. AT school.. thats totally straight from the movies hahaha!! awesome.. BRIEANNE (thats righ dare use your FULL name on the blog of which you are known as B!)know this and know this now.. I DO NOT WANT TO PEE IN FRONT OF OTHERS... and don't deny that you want to be one of those pusher people.. i know secrets to ya know
Exxxxcuse me? You dare say I would ever want to push someone around in a wheel chair??....????? Anyway, YES, you obviously DO want to pee in front of others!!!!
So, I flushed the urinal yesterday...just had to know if it worked.
haha watch out b, curiousity killed the cat!! haha
"Hmmm....a urinal in a women's restroom? I wonder why? I wonder if it actually works, or if it's just there because of some construction misunderstanding, or something...?? Let's see....oh, yes, it seems to be working....wait a minute, I've never seen a urinal flush, but I don't think it's supposed to do that....woah woah....ahh ahh ahhhhh!....help! help! HELP ME!!!!....blub blub, swooosh."
