Still the mans' throne, even when pink
Right, so... now that my little childish tirade has ended, I cast pettiness aside and just move on. Rather than slander or hatred, I bring you now a tale of a most confused soul.
Southridge Mall sets the scene, myself wandering around from window to window, pining over wares that far exceed my spending limits. Detour taken, I find myself wandering into the ladies' room, and once inside I realize I am not alone. From one of the stalls emerges a rather large man! Stopping immediately upon sight of me, he blinks, which of course forces a blink from me as well. A few fleeting glances are sent by him around the restroom, followed by quick steps toward the door. I stifle a laugh as I watch him scurry, but blink yet again as he pauses at the door. He looks at the sign and asks, "Am I in the wrong bathroom?" Immediately all composure is lost by me, the only affirmative answer I can offer is a nod. Does he leave? Oh no, quite the contrary. He steps back inside the ladies' room and continues to converse! "You know, it's funny. I was wondering why there were no urinals in here." I just blinked yet again, and finally the guy wanders out. In utter disbelief, I look around the room, note taken of the baby-changing station, the pink wallpaper and tile, the feminine hygiene product dispenser, the flowery motif. At first I'm thinking, "What an idiot." but then... I discover the man's true purpose within, and decide he breached the unspoken boundaries between the sexes with malicious intent. Not only did he leave the damn seat up, but the bastard didn't even bother to flush.
Edit: So it's been brought to my attention that... eh, ew. Why did I notice that he hadn't flushed and whatnot? Well... eh, there were only 2 stalls, and the one was out of order. I wasn't about to use the one he had just been in, but... let's just say it was rather obvious in passing.
