This restaurant requires a code to use women’s restroom, but not men’s

    1. Probably to stop trans women from using the bathrooms. Like everything isn’t hard enough for them without this bs.

    2. All the women know the code. This is why they divided girls and boys into separate gymnasiums that one day in fifth grade.

      I haven’t seen that at a restaurant! That’s standard in construction, where there is one bathroom designated for female workers and every other bathroom is smeared with shit.

    4. I worked in a Hilton, the women’s room had a security guard every Friday and Saturday night, and any night it would be busy. The women would destroy the bathroom, regularly. REGULARLY! It was unbelievable. The men might pee on something, but the women would destroy. like pull things off the walls.

    5. This happened at one of my jobs after one of the guys kept going into the women’s room. (Pro tip – Don’t hire meth-heads, they might work hard, but they cause SOOOOOO many other problems.)

      If this was a job site I’d just go ahead and use the men’s. If they complain I would ask them if they knew the code, fuck that. I’m peeing

    7. Right, so im curious about something.

      I’ve often heard the public female toilets are often fucking disgusting because of people who hover.

      What’s the likelihood of this compared to the likelihood of a man breaking into a bathroom to assault a woman often enough at this location to warrant a lock?

      I would imagine if men assaulting women in bathrooms was super common, that locks in general would be commonplace?

      I could be way off the mark though?

    8. The men’s one look like it has one of those electronic keypads that’s dark and seemingly blank until you touch it and the numbers reveal themselves.

    9. Thats to keep men from using the women’s after somebody smears feces all over the men’s restroom.

    10. Same reason why women’s only gyms exist, but not men’s only.

      Same reason why women’s only train cars exist in some countries like India, but not men’s only.

      Because enough men are pigs to make them necessary.

      To be fair, I work somewhere that is a super large “resort” type environment. We have had some pretty gnarly things happen. One time a guy sent a woman to the hospital after he broke in to the “family” bathrooms right behind a woman. Forced her to stay in there while he SA’d her and beat her so bad she needed hospital attention. I’m torn on the locks. As to where a lock would maybe keep people out while you’re in there but on the flip side if someone catches the door and comes in with you, forcing you in it’s harder to get immediate help from a passer by.

      they are both doors that require a code, but the men’s door is a different style. It is a partially digital interface that lights up when you touch the panel above the handle. I see them all around town in my city as a delivery driver.

      Anyone who has ever worked restaurants will tell you that the women’s room is 10x more disgusting than the men’s. Savages, the lot of them.

    14. Am I crazy or does the men’s look like it has an RFID lock? As in, there might be a key card for men’s and a password for women’s.

      Still strange, but I’d bet the RFID for the women’s failed and the password lock was cheaper

      Or it might be the digital touch sensitive pads. Either way it’s too bulky to be a non-locking or a simple key lock

    15. Not gonna lie, was in a McDonald’s the other day in Ft Lauderdale and they had the maglock doors on the restrooms. Had to ask a crew member to unlock the door from behind the counter. First time I was like wtf am I?!

      How would they even handle this PIN? 

      Do you have to ask the manager for the super secret PIN, and then they slip you a card with the pin that you have to give back? 

      Couldn’t this PIN easily get told to anyone? 

      Can a father get the PIN to take his toddler/baby daughter inside? Or only the mother? 

      Just have a key on a big piece of wood most places use. 

    17. Went to a paper mill once with this, and according to them, it was to keep men from using it. I can’t recall the reason given, but I think the women’s one was smaller bc of demand and they wanted to make sure those stalls were as available as possible?
