Help answer this question below.
Not really. Toilets don't really have a lot to do with social equality. :P
No. There are people who are uncomfortable using the toilet in a public place with people of the opposite sex nearby and possibly able to observe; it's good we respect that.
Only if the women's are cleaner :o)
I don't see how.
It might if there were a full men's restroom, and a port-o-john labeled "chicks here"
But since there are both of equal quality, it cannot be sexist.
No, because we all know what we (men) can do to bathrooms. And i can certainly put a beating on the main (my) bathroom. She can put as many flowers and potpurri in her bathroom as she likes, knowing that i will not go in there and create a 'global warming' environment to destroy them.
No. It's just that mens toilets are that uncivilised that they have men peeing out in the open for anyone to see, and women shouldn't have to look at that. It just underlines that men go to the toilet differently.
It might do. The way I see it is like this... I'm sorry to stereotype but when it comes to toilet ettiquette, men usually smell more than women do, they pee on the seat (because they dont lift it) and the pee on the floor. So I, for one, am glad that we have separate facilities. however, more and more recently I have been going out into pubs and clubs only to find that the toilets are unisex. So, lots of smells there then!!
Not at all. I think anyone who thinks they are are being overly politically correct. I dislike people who label everything "sexist"---I wish they'd just learn to suck it up! Men and women ARE different. As a matter of fact, I support places that are strictly for men, and strictly for women (e.g., men's clubs). Men and women need their space and time away from each other once in awhile, so when they finally get together it's even more special.
Frankly, if the stalls were constructed with discreet use by either sex in mind, I think unisex bathrooms would actually be better.
I'd rather be asked to "please be neat and take a seat" for number one, than to have some Tom, Dick or Harry standing next to me!
Maybe we'll meet some nice lady while washing our hands...
I see it as just an old tradition.
It's not really necessary- in private homes everyone uses the same bathrooms, so why not in public restrooms? Just make the walls between the stalls go all the way to the floor, and all the way to the ceiling, so there are no "peeping toms".
Instead of checking for shoes, there can be an occupied/unoccupied slider on each door based on when the door is latched.
There is no reason why sinks need to be gender-specific. There is nothing about a woman putting on makeup that need to be done in private.
I'm all for unisex restrooms.
I'm not one for messing a bathroom as men stereotypically do, but if women were to be using the same restrooms, then maybe they'd get cleaned once in a while, because women are historically more demanding about the sanitary conditions of the restroom.
Sure do! There are many sexist things in our society that we find "acceptable." For women: open cars doors; pull out chair; PAY FOR DINNER, release them (in hostage situation), restricted from certain military occupational specialties, etc.
Of course in alot of these instances, women do NOT tend to complain--too loudly. (Especially, the pay-for-dinner example!!!)
It's very sexist!!!
All people should be allowd to use the same bathroom with one exception; There should be female attendant in there at all times. Her job, reminding you guys to put the seat down.

Have most blacks ever been able to conceal their race such as gay people can conceal their sexuality?

You're reading Do you think that having separate bathrooms for men and women, classifies as "sexist"? Why or why not?
