An ode to the women’s bathroom
For every line I wait in to buy a ticket to a concert, a play or a sporting event, I wait in a line profoundly longer when I am actually there to use the washrooms. There is massive inequity in the way men’s and the way women’s bathrooms are constructed, which is why women often experience significantly longer wait times in public places than men do. And while that is an incredibly important conversation to have, that is not the focus of this article. The focus of this article is how women’s restrooms are places where we, unabashedly and without inhibition, uplift each other.
