Thread Name: BS: Wrong Restroom... Opps!!!
Subject: RE: BS: Wrong Restroom... Opps!!!
When the new Student Union building at my school (Wichita State U.)was completed about 1958, they installed a line of **womens urinals**...and only two 'regular' stalls. The lines for the regular stalls were LONG.

Within a year they had to tear them out and put in more 'regular', 'cause the women simply wouldn't use them. There were comments about 'body type', about the silly assumption that most women wore skirts instead of jeans, about the problem of pantyhose, about the physical strain of assuming a proper 'stance'...etc.

No, no one had conducted any simple research first.
