The dress and pants symbols to indicate gender are out of date. I say that, as a man, I wear dresses far more than a typical woman. How about using the circle with the upper right arrow for male and the circle with the cross underneath for female? Maybe, Sana (Stanley), you should do a cartoon with a restroom with the dress symbol with the word "Men" underneath or on top. John
The funny about the queue for the Ladies Room is so accurate. When are architects and developers going to wake up to the fact that women take longer and provide them with more facilities?
When a new sports venue in my area was built it took into account that women took longer to take care of bodily functions than men and planned for more toilets than customary. It was not uncommon at a venue with an inadequate number of toilets to have a woman yell,:Woman on board" when she burst into the men's room, past all the men urinating into a trough, and head to a toilet. It's also nice to have the local mall and stores have single occupant bathrooms to avoid hostile confrontations.
