This is why i don’t understand why bathroom companies aren’t creating more genders in order to create more bathrooms.
They could boost their sales to numbers not seen since the days of racial segregation
But they have to be careful because otherwise people might realize it’s cheaper and easier to just label bathrooms with “sitting” and “sitting+standing”.
Big Bathroom replaced my toilet with joke toilet that has a smaller hole that’s just for farts and now I can’t even take a shit in my own house!
YOU’RE NOT PART OF THE TURBO TEAM! YOU WALK!
SLOWLY!
You wouldn’t download a bathroom
I wouldn’t. Not as long as there’s free trees outside.
… climate change is a hoax by Big Bathroom to sell more bathrooms. MindBlown.gif
PSA: Don’t pee on trees, pee on rocks if available. Some animals will lick your dry pee off trees because they’re gross and this will hurt the tree’s bark.
Don’t worry. I don’t pee on trees. I pee on my neighbors.
Huh. Noted.
(My biology doesn’t easily allow me to pee ON trees anyway, if anything, it’s under.)
You’re just not trying hard enough. There’s videos out there.
Oh I know. That’s why I included that “easily” :)
Ah yes, the free and open source alternatives. I am not giving my money to big bathroom
free and open source alternatives
Oh shi-
That’s very good <3
I make an upload to the toilet a couple times a day.
Of course not, you download to a bathroom.
It’s sort of the other way. Buildings in the southern US before the 1960s, besides having gendered bathrooms, also had separate bathrooms for white and black people. So 4 kinds of bathrooms. The Pentagon today is apparently a bathroom user’s paradise, because it was built in the 1940s with enough bathroom capacity for all its users even having the 4 kinds of bathrooms. Then after desegregation, its bathrooms got consolidated into just 2 kinds (by gender). So it now has 2x more bathroom capacity per person than newer office buildings have.
Jeez. I always thought IBS would prevent a pentagon job, maybe the Pentagon was just designed for IBS in a way.
are you sure its 2 times the capacity per person now? Because that makes no sense. Without additional info, there should be the same amount of people using the same capacity of bathrooms now.
Just the number of bathrooms usable per person has changed, so you are more likely to have a bathroom nearby. But you don’t have more room or more toilets per sé.
They needed to induce bathroom demand after the end of segregation
integrating this into my belief system
I had to look this up. It seems gendered bathrooms are very old.
I cannot vouch for this site, but it introduces interesting history. https://historyqa.com/gendered-bathrooms-history/
(The version of history needs to be confirmed and scholarly sources I found have broken URLs.)
When I was in college, it was funny how the engineering building only had one restroom per floor - they were all mens until like the 70’s, cuz wommin can’t be engineers of course.
Selling is a scam invented by Big Sales so they can sell more sales
Nah, genders were invented by men to avoid giving birth!
I must be doing it wrong. I gave birth to some kidney stones years ago.
Do not reccomend.
Or by women so they have something to never shut up about. It’s been 55 years, mom!
Like how racism was invented by big Water Fountain?
In coordination with big bathroom!
I’m noticing a pattern here.
The only issue I have with unisex bathrooms is that by the end of the night women’s bathrooms look like a horror movie.
I used to work at a gas station. I’d have to clean the bathrooms once per shift.
The mens bathroom? A couple of wet spots next to the toilet. I always attributed this to the guys who end up getting multiple streams, and don’t know what to do.
The womens bathroom? Look. I know women bleed once a month. I get it. But ladies, what the fuck are you doing in the gas station bathrooms??? Are you having coat hanger abortions??? Is it like a woman thing to all contribute to one communal blood pool? There is no way these nightly horror scenes all came from one person unless they had a recently chopped off limb! Is Freddie Kruger attacking you ladies while you’re pooping? I have never figured out what the womens bathroom experience is, but it has SHATTERED any illusion to me that women are cleaner/neater than men. We may leave dirty laundry around the house for days, but you gals have an exorcism as you toot.
See, this is why everyone says girls don’t poop. They DON’T poop. They disembowel.
It’s even worse in clubs. I’ve seen pads and tampons stuck to the walls, random objects in the toilet, soiled panties left on the floor. And this isn’t the extremes either. This is a normal fri-sat.
Absolutely. It’s night and day the minute you add alcohol into the mix. I remember telling my old boss I wouldn’t clean the women’s bathroom after weddings anymore unless I got hazard pay.
What is with the tampom wall thing?
No idea, that was by far the worst part.
Bathrooms are a scam invented by Big Shit to sell more pooping
I mean…you are more right than you think.
Bathroom fixture manufacturers created a massive marketing/propaganda campaign around the idea of Hygiene, and the idea that its better for your health and safety, simply because they wanted to sell more fixtures…and the way to do that was to get more houses built with indoor plumbing facilities, because in the era before this… a solid chunk of the population still used outhouses, and bathed in portable tubs they filled with water heated up one pot at a time on a stove once every few weeks… if that. and because filling the tub was so much work, the whole family washed in it, without changing the water… usually the husband first, then the mother, then the kids in order of age got to bath in the bouillabaisse of mom and dads filth.
You’d be gobsmacked how many things like that are the result of marketing.
Milk being essential for bone health? Another marketing gimmick, from the dairy industry.
Diamonds are essential for proposals/weddings? Another marketing gimmick, from the diamond cartels.
and more.
I knew about diamonds and I believe about milk.
But you can pry indoor plumbing and hot water heaters from my cold dead hands. Sometimes the marketing works because it’s a good idea lol
Wasnt arguing that you should get rid of them :p
Just pointing out the fact that you only care about them, ultimately, because of a very successful advertising campaign to sell more fixtures.
But you’re mistaken. It isn’t big plumbing companies selling more shitting - it’s taco bell
Deodorant was first marketed to immigrants and that’s how it took hold. People mildly-to-seriously stank for all of human history and it just was, perfumes have always been a market too. But then someone was like “but what if we made these folks feel even more ostracized to sell them a solution”
And this began the “your body is fucking disgusting” cycle that now encourages us to literally coat ourselves head-to-toe in (eczema to cancer causing) chemical deodorants. Great.
Deodorant and I have never really spent much time together - perhaps because I live in a mild climate and don’t do much sports - but god damn do I love a hot shower.
Male and female restrooms and the neutral bathroom is good enough.
In the US at least, the women’s restrooms used to say “colored”
The reason we still have gendered bathrooms is because we didn’t change building codes for bathrooms and water fountains after segregation.
Huh, that makes sense.
You’ll also see double water fountains and double sinks in Jim Crow era installations.
