mmichaelm: Once a friend and I were sitting in a club chatting with a couple ladies. After a while the ladies looked at each other and nodded and both got up to go to the restroom together. After they left, my friend turned to me and asked the question that all men often wonder about..."Why do women always go to the restroom together? What do you suppose they are talking about in there?"
I thought for a second and replied, "They're probably in there laughing their asses off at us." "Seriously, I don't know, man", I continued. "I think its like a secret society ritual or something. If they tell us, they'd probably have to kill us."
But, here we are among friends...so ladies, why do you do that and what do you really talk about in there??
We toss a coin to establish who gets the cute one.
Thalassa: You all have it 100% wrong. It's really not about what happens when we're IN the bathroom (or loo or whatever you call it)....it's about GOING to the bathroom.
There is something innate in us, as women, to look after each other (unless we totally despise one another). And sometimes, the walk to a bathroom...alone...leaves us a bit vulnerable. It is something that we have developed over time, not something we think about, but any time a woman walks alone (likely past a group of men or a couple of men, at least), we feel a bit vulnerable.
It's not about BEING in the bathroom together...it's about the walk there.
Some may say I'm wrong, but I sincerely believe what I said.
You have got it 100%. Actually, let me revise that, um....50%. It's about the WALK BACK! Ever watched a woman coming out of the ladies in a bar? That's when she is at her most vulnerable. She is at her most self-concious, because she feels that every man in the bar will be staring at her thinking, "I know what you've been doing, I know that you've had your underwear around your ankles, I know you've been peeing, you've been partially nekkid, and who knows what else!! ON top of that, we know you've been gossiping about us, and laughing at us too probably!!"...you'll never get a woman to look you directly in the eye as she leaves the loo. No way. Try it. Meanwhile, the truth is, men don't give a hoot what women do in the loo, they're just pissed off they take so damn long about it. We're highly suspicious that it's either about gossip, or you're avoiding paying for the next round, or you have lesbian tendencies.....So the next time you see a woman making an exit out of the ladies, clap as she walks by, and say in a loud, friendly voice, "Well done Sheila, you did the dirty deed in under 15 minutes!!!

Hi, Boban, sweetie...how the heck are you? Is your English REALLY this good now? Have you really done all of this on your own? If so, I say BRAVO! I remember how you used to write (and I still admired every bit of it!) and I see SUCH progress! I really do admire your accomplishments. You inspire me, my friend.
That's a question for a man, not for me. I only know that a crude comment addressed to me as I might be walking by would be not only a turn-off, but would make me think very poorly of the man who said such a thing.
"Hey Sheila!...now that you're all peed out and tarted up, how about a beer?"....

Why, yes, as a matter of fact...he licked his eyebrows while jangling the keys to his Lamborghini and casually checking his authentic Rolex watch while, at the same time, phoning his broker to shift a few million from one fund to another. Yeah. Right.
Sorry, sister...I just felt it was time. These poor men have been wondering about this for decades...centuries....I just felt it was time to put them out of their misery. Mea culpa.
BoyracerBMW: You are a lady of distinction, and above and beyond all else, you have a sense of humour....prosit!!
My sense of humor has served me well...better, in fact, than my sense of direction in my life. If I can't figure it out in my head, I'll find a way to laugh it off and, ultimately, all works out.
Well said. A sense of humour is your best defence against all the iniquities that life can throw at you. That and alcohol.
