the restroom used in ally mcbeal.

Personally, if I was in a bathroom and some geeky-looking guy came in with a remote-control flusher and announced that “I like a fresh bowl,” I wouldn’t think twice. I’d grab that remote-control, throw it in the toilet, and proceed to beat the crap out of him. Some people just gotta learn not to be stupid in public.

I personally think the idea of unisex bathrooms is horrible. I don’t want to run into some gorgeous babe after she’s smelled my shit, and vice-versa. Not even a NON-gorgeous babe. Nor do I want a woman walking around behind while I have my dick hanging out into the urinal.

It seems these unisex bathrooms are quite common in coed dorms. And it makes sense too, although it didn’t occur to me at the time of the OP.

But I agree with Lizard. There’s that whole awkwardness feeling of being with a stranger of the opposite sex after they’ve just taken care of their business. After that gorgeous babe walks out of the shit smelling stall, for some odd reason, she ceases to be gorgeous at that moment.

Exactly. That’s why I don’t particularly like the idea of unisex restrooms. As far as I’m concerned, women don’t poop. They go into their restrooms and, I dunno…hang out, talk, put make up on. But they DON’T poop. Women don’t. That’s just gross.
Communal unisex showers on the other hand…I’m all for those.

You may find it useful at such times to simply permit cognitive dissonance to set in. “Wow, cute chi–geez, she just took a shit, didn’t she. pop No, no she did not. Women don’t ever take shits. I didn’t just hear that, and I certainly don’t smell that odour. Ah, there, I feel much better now. Wow, cute chick!”

Of course, more realistically, anybody you go out with for any length of time, you’re going to witness in assorted situations like this. Maybe you should get used to it? Maybe if there were more unisex bathrooms, more people would get a better grounding in the notion that beautiful people are just like the rest of us. There’s a good reason that a common phrase to say to people who are full of themselves is “do you think your shit don’t stink?”
