Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Not a massive fan of public toilets, the ones in the Arndale are awful but sometimes you've no choice, I think a wee should be free for all. The ladies loos on Peel street seem ok though. Have used shop toilets when shopping they usually keep them smelling sweeter!

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

I agree I had to go in with a pram and it was really hard work, are they shut now?

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

there is also very little consideration of fathers with pushchairs. Its a nightmare finding somewhere I can go for a wee when I have Siobhan with me.

We want to WEE!

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

I agree with you Entwisi, toilets and the like are more geared up for mothers and thats wrong.

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Must be a nightmare, wouldn't even like to imagine!

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

my partner used to agree with that when our daughter was a baby, also have baby changing rooms in the ladies loos, what if he needed to do it, he couldnt go in there!!
but he used to use mother care instead in accrington but then that closed!! so there was nowhere to go:(

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

The problem would easily be solved if everyone stood up to pee :D

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

aye us women could use a funnel:rolleyes: ...lol

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Well you could always go into the bushes ladies. :eek::p

Mind you needing to answer the call with a pram has lead to arkward moments in the past. Another thing to entwisi's point about having the little uns out and about with there dads why is it labeled in some cases as mother and baby? To me that is as sexist as it comes!!!!!!!!

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

There really should be parent and child rooms in all public toilets etc both male and female, it is very sexist at the mo.

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

For a change its the guy's on the receiving end. :(

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

it really is crazy,all the public bogs,all over hyndburn are long gone, some wernt the best in the world,but at least they were BOGS. BRING BACK OUR BOGS.;)

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Women can use urinals, I am sure that chav will post us some pictures, the thread might need moving to over 18's though :D

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Yes with the help of a little surgical tool in the right place.

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

didn,t think it mattered whose bogs you use, it dont seem to matter at accyweb meets,- cashy slinks away pmsl.:D

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Cant believe that is still doing the rounds. :o NOT GUILTY!!!

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

You will get some stick on here for admitting you have a little tool :D :D :D

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

It works thats all that matters. No blockage so can answer the call nae probs. :p

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

you do have to consider the positive side though Spuggie

Imagine you're out and about with the wife and little one, suddenly a familiar odour wafts gently up from the pram. "<Insert Babies name here> done a poo love, lets find somewhere to change her... Oh dear its in the ladies, ah well, here you go.......... :D "

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

never mentioned names- my lips are sealed.:D BUT if the cap fits.;)

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

theres always a positive.:D

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

I would as well. Sod etiquette and all this gender guff the child's needs come first so yes if it was a ladies bog that had the bench thingy then in I would go. If arrested I would claim in court its abusing a child to leave it in a jobby filled nappy and cross my fingers.

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

At Skipton the men have to pay 20pence to get in. I remember posting(in another thread) the comment my hubby made to the toilet attendant.....'What 20 pence for a P' the attendant quickly replied....'No, it's 20 pence to get in, once you are in there you can do what you like' ;)

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Some train stations charge the 20 pence to get in to answer the call for all kids included.Sadly if you don't have change you are goosed even the kids cant get in. :(

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

I like that one Margaret my imagination is now into overdrive.:D

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Now now behave good sir and keep it clean. ;)

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

I know, it gave us quite a chuckle.

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

I agree with others, women shouldn't have to pay to have a pee if men don't, and there should be facilities for dads to spend a penny if they have a pram with them.

I'm suprised there isn't more of an out cry over this inequality.

The local authorities would be bending over backwards if it were a relgious or cultural problem to sort it out.

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Annie and I were shocked to see all the pay bathrooms over there. They are very rare here in the States. Annie had to really go but refused to allow me to pay for it. "Dad, I'm not gonna pay to go to the bathroom!" So, what makes her stubborn/pround the English in her or the wee bit of German!:rolleyes:

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Lucky bastards ... In the City of Kingston (pop. 120,000) there is only one public bog! And in the stores they hide them: special architects are hired to do this ... ever try taking a leak outside at -35 degrees!!!!!!!!

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Looks like Ladies we are expected to use the funnel technique to avoid being charged :eek::D

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Cant believe we have a thread about weeing for free or not. Who cares?

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

I am surprise no one has posted a picture of a shewee yet

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

mcdonalds has baby changing facilities but they are in teh disabled toilets which usualy require a special key to get in to although most places leave them unlocked

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Well the wee bit of German would make her want to pay. It's common in mainland Europe to pay to use the loo even in the shopping places.

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Next time you go try walking out without 'tipping', then you will know how compulsory it is :D

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

In some public toilets in Spain (well, it used to be so some 10 years ago) they have some old dear doling out the toilet paper.....if you don't pay you don't get any loo roll.

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

yes, Willow you are right about stingy.......I once asked for some more paper.......and the old dear pointed to the dish........she wanted more money.
Now I ALWAYS have tissues in my bag or may pocket.

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

This was one of Chris's bugbears - why are they all Mother and Baby rooms - where could he go when the babies needed changing.

He also hated Mothercare as well - don't father's care too?

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Looking at your avitar tadah, if you pay 20 pence to go into the Skipton toilets, someone will probably oblige you.:rolleyes:

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

I will go anywhere where it is free to pee as I begrudge paying to do a natural bodily function. Probably the only time I ever go in McDonalds is for a McPee. I have to agree that there is a bit of sexism going on with the mother and baby rooms, I'm surprised that nobody has jumped on that bandwagon yet and lobbied parliament.:D ;)

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

what, even ossy loos?? id rather pee in the brook behind it:Banane30:

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Hehehehe... I have peed for free in many and varied places including :- various places on the Lakeland Fells and Scottish Glens, I have peed on Mt Blanc, on the Asian squat type toilets in Turkey, Hong Kong and Bangkok, I have peed in Outback Dunnys with a watchful eye out for the dreaded 'dunny spiders,' I have also peed in a tarantula infested beach bog (hole in ground with 10 ft drop) somewhere in the Caribbean. Ossy bogs, or even the brook would be a breeze..:D

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

have you seen ossy bogs???.......LOL

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

AH but have you done Buckingham Palace Gates lettie?;)

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

picadilly train station in manchester makes me laugh, it cost 20p for both men and women to use the loo, although reece always sneaks under the barrier

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Dont they have the family toliets. In the malls in Georgia they had a couple just so dads could have an easier time with little ones

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Sadly no. :( For all the shouting balling and other acts when it comes to giving men something that women take for granted we here are still in the stone age.:eek:

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

I object to paying 10 p in Blackpool so i always nip in Woolworths ,or B.H.S. now that Littlewoods has gone...

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

For 20p do they give you a magic marker so you can write on the walls? "You'd think with all this rhyme and wit, Shakespeare had been here to ..........." Five bucks for anyone from Ossy bright enought to finish it.

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

here i sit all broken hearted

i paid 20p and only farted

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

'Write English Lit.'.



You can send my five bucks to Ossy.

I'll pm you my address.:D

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

We've got 2 public loos in our village, one in the centre and one beside the lake. They are both those "dalek" ones that you can't get in unless you pay and I would have to be at bursting point to use them as I suffer from claustrophobia - no windows and I'm sunk. I am also convinced that if I used one it would rise in the air, spinning slowly on a stripey pole, while playing the tune from the Magic Roundabout. :D

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

I've got a photo, somewhere, of me having just used my husband's car as a screen while I irrigated the parched desert in Saudi Arabia. It's quite decent - he waited until I was modestly covered up (well, almost) before he took the photo. :D

On the way to Saudi my, then 9 year old, younger daughter and I stayed overnight in Cairo. Arriving at the airport we went to the loo - beautifully clean. I went in a cubicle which was quite normal but my daughter, in the next-door one, suddenly wailed, "Mum, there's no seat. It's just a hole." We found that every other cubicle had an Arab-style toilet, a grid in the floor and a water-spray tube insted of paper. :eek:

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

the easiest way of using the squat-job asian toilet is to turn around and face the wall , that way you can hold on to the pipe-work running up to the cistern to avoid falling over, just make sure your clothing is well clear so you don't drop the load into your skivies :D :D :D

Re: Here's an inequality which needs to be addressed
 

Wrong: you are thinking of the Bard of Avon, I mean the Bard of Barnoldswick. Remember "Shall I compare thee to a wart on my buttock?" This of course was written to honor his love, Ann, the Ho of Clitheroe. But your answer, though not worth a fin, will earn you a twoonie. I still think the last intelligent person to come from Ossy was my Gran :)
