I’m not usually a feminist or scream for equality… but the other night while at a sports bar on Spring Garden Road watching Canada’s loss against Russia, I was in line for the female washroom when I heard in the men’s washroom there is a television so they can keep up with the game. Why is there not the same opportunity in the female washroom?? We are usually in line longer and enjoy the games just as much! —Female Sports Fan

Cuz men aren’t allowed so who’d explain what’s happening?
Cuz the bouncers don’t want to have to break up Oprah vs. Jersey Shore catfights . HeeHaw^^^
I know! I was jealous when I was told there was a TV in the men’s room…
And fuck off Guyute (said in the nicest way possible).
You guys sound like my grandson (who’s still in elementary school, by the way). We were playing the Apples to Apples board game, and the card ‘feminine’ came up…he used the card ‘doing the dishes’ as the best possible definition.
Ouch! learn ’em young, right? Ha ha. I hope you straightened him out… or at least laughed.
Op, I guess it’s because the vast majority of fans are male and they can’t be bothered buying two tv’s. Personally, I hate hockey and would rather sit through an episode of Jersey Shore…or even Oprah!
My 18 year old son laughed so hard (and gave him the win), the little guy realized he had made a faux pas. = )
Well then I can’t imagine you’d be at a sports bar then… where, go figure, the majority of females who are there are actually sports fans too. *gasp*And the bar already owns over 60 tvs, so it shouldn’t be that much of an issue to stick one in the can for the ladies.
That’s awesome, Kim 🙂
tho the men’s loo is probably cleaner
I highly doubt that, PG.
Yeah, I’m sure the flies over the urinals keep it spic and span. = p
…and how many lady’s lavatories have you visited 195? *chortle*
The ladies loos are typically DISGUSTING… but so are the men’s. It seems that the more drunk the crowd of ladies gets, the more nasty their hygiene. The men see to follow the same level of nastiness no matter their booze intake.
I must admit, in a previous life I was a bartender in a small pub, cleaning the loo was the worst part of the job, but they were often equally disgusting…
I was going to try and post the “ladies washroom” clip from “The Office” but I strongly urge you to NOT google those 4 words. As Dr. Zaius told Charlton Heston:
“Don’t look for it Taylor. You may not like what you find”

Yeah Rule 34 can be a bitch sometimes.
Yes, there’s a TV in there…..really though, I’m surprised more places don’t do that.
Question? Is the TV in viewing site of the urinals? Maybe that was the reason for them….Ladies all have to close the door for #1 or #2 so maybe they though for the 5 times a year there’s actually a line up in the chicks bathroom wasn’t worth the extra $400. Maybe?? Either way…I really like their original spice wings…uuummmm.
Also Kim…that was too cute…little buger.
As long as the sounds on though you can follow along… and hopefully all the ladies are washing their hands! We could be viewing then too.
Beacause it’s cheaper. One TV can cover 4-6 urinals, whereas they would need one per stall for the women’s.
i can hear it know “he shoots he scores” fart fart plop plop…thanks i’ll pass
Watching Canada get boned up the dirt chute by the Ruskies would bring on a bowel movement.
The TV’s are in front of the stalls. They probably don’t want to attach them to doors.
Nah, stick the TV out by the sinks, we can hear it… and watch when doing other ‘girlie’ activities.
‘Twas a bit of a 3rd period epic fail in the case of the gold medal game. Those kids played so hard, so fabulously, and to let it all go… they were tired out, and the damn Russians come up and got ’em from behind.
Let the women use the mens room.
Problem solved.
Believe me, it’s a thrill to try and use a urinal when ten women are lined up behind you waiting to use the stalls in the mens washroom because the lineup for the womens washroom is out the front of the bar and onto the street.
Let me guess…the establishment in question is owned by men, right?
I’m really surprised there wasn’t one bitch about game.
… I’d change the channel to the Food Network. Not because I’m a woman but because Barefoot Contessa makes me hot. Lolz.
Ps. hope Christmas was wonderful for everyone!
‘Twas Donk. Et vous?
Christmas was good. Vacation wasn’t long enough.
Christmas was f-ing fantastic. It was beyond … but now back to reality.
Me too Donk – and reality bites big time. Glad you had a good one.
i think everyone did their bitching about the game via twitverse and facecrack. No one had the energy to rehash here. Eez otay.
aah sweet donkster, my day is complete…welcome back to the vortex^^
LOL I wast just stirring the pot. My wife loves watching hockey. You know why Montrealers love doing it doggie-style…
No…. why? *wink*
I sensed the pot stirring, hence the “friendly” fuck off. It sounded like something my bf would say 😀
Oh merci Painey. It feels good to see your “virtual face” again 😀
I heard it was because some chick beat up kay and put her in a rear naked choke after kay picked a fight with her. Kay complained that the girl learned the move watching the UFC in the washroom and they got into a fight over lipstick colour. Then she got Cyborg’d.
why waste time and money out o.p., and face an asshole bouncer. when you can watch that stupid shit at home. but i forget that the younger are dumb fucking idiots these days and only do it for looks.
Who fucking cares… having a tv in any washroom is a stupid idea.
I honestly can’t think of anything I care about less, as a “screaming feminist” (Because everyone knows that feminists are constantly screaming) or whatever tired stereotype you like to project onto people who care about gender equality, than a television being in the mens washroom and not the womens. I’ll take “screaming feminists” who are actually screaming about something that matters, over a self identified usually-non-feminist who’s wasting everyone’s time by being offended by stupid shit like this.
i prefer bellowing loudly as opposed to screaming…we have become “slaves” to technology. go go uol
If I gotta piss it don’t matter what bathroom I go to!
I’m with Ginger, if there is a line to the lady’s washroom, and none to the Men’s, I’m going to the Men’s.
Actually. You’ll likely get thrown out of the men’s bathroom.
Tried that last NYE at a popular downtown night spot with a friend of mine cause the line for the girl’s washroom was too long and got kicked out of the can by the bouncers. I suppose a bunch of drunk ladies in a room where a bunch of also drunk men have their penises pulled out of their pants is a liability for the club *shrug*
I just really had to pee 🙁
Did that once at the Black Bull in TO… the guys were all very welcoming and I vowed never to do it again! 😀
and if the girls wanted to watch this shit, don’t they have that ap. on crackberry or phoney phone yet.
angel….. you would not! I call your bluff.
the black bull^^is it still there? jonno, angel nice to see you
Yeah, hey jonno!
As far as I know the BB is still there, at least physically. About 15 years ago it went from biker heaven to a fern bar. So sad. The bikers were still hanging out on the patio though. I haven’t been back to TO in 2+ years, so I have no idea what state its in now!
too bad you don’t have to file a lawsuite now PK.
I’ve tried this, it works amazingly well :>)

Nothing wrong with using the men’s can. Just don’t use their handicapped stall, they get pissed:P
ha ha… “sorry, I’m retarded”. I think many folks could easily get away with that excuse.
I’m a bit supprised how many women consider it to be alright to use the mens washroom. Seriously, what would you do if a bunch of guys went into the ladies toilet while you’re taing care of business?
not sure what this is about
http://failads.com/wp-content/uploads/2009…
My best guess PG is that it means couples with ducks:) Yeah, I see those ducks squawking everywhere. Always trying to butt into line.
To answer you Hugo; Most likely because there always seems to be longer line-ups at the women jons.(concerts, games, come to my mind) I’m polite and always ask, if there is someone to ask. Having said that, how many places can you think of that don’t have separate gender washrooms? I can think of quite a few. And when did these separate washrooms come about? Outhouses of yore had two holes to plunk your self and mate down onto. Now that’s what I call cozy.

damn ducks *squawk* many toilets in europe are unisex…the romans could have meetings and poop at the same time http://jameswagner.com/mt_archives/Roman_P…
LOL, paingirl. Yes, vanity is a new phenomenon!
