Whoever coined the term “fairer sex” to describe women has obviously never been to the ladies’ room.
There’s nothing “pretty” or “gentle” or “ladylike” at all when it comes to the restroom designated for female use, so you might as well drop that notion. By now, feminists have disabused us of the thought that women are the “weaker sex”. We are not weak, as you can see from MadTV’s “Lesbionic Woman” parody.
At least not all of us are.
Now I’m here to shatter yet another myth about women. Forget sugar and spice and everything nice. Women are not made of that. Women are not even spicy in a sexy way. Forget all those preconceived notions that seem to make women the sexy creatures you envision them to be.
Here’s a little secret boys: women can be slobs just like you. Even worse than you, probably.
I know, I know, when you walk past the men’s room the odor wafts out and suffocates anyone within a twenty mile radius. But men embrace that sort of disgusting characteristic with gusto. They love the “machismo” that their sweaty, smelly selves emit. It’s some sort of gross badge of manhood.
But girls? Noooo.
Girls have to smell nice all the time, with clean, manicured fingernails and perfect hair. Girls are perpetually immaculate. Poise is paramount.
But if you’ve been to the ladies’ room, well, man — it’s a whole other ballgame.
I’ve never seen as much filth in my entire life, and I live in a place where garbage collectors come around practically once every three months. The office restroom is one very good example. I can’t go into detail here for fear of spoiling your appetite, but suffice it to say that every visit to the restroom renders me practically breathless.
Or maybe I choose not to breath, but that’s pretty much the same, isn’t it?
Women, women, women — supposedly the cleaner and more responsible of the two sexes. Last time I checked, not flushing after you do your deed is not responsible. Here’s a thought:
What.the.fuck.happened.to.all.your.hygiene.lessons?
I’m sorely tempted to stand guard outside the restroom and beat up anyone who lacks restroom etiquette. My friend Mei is suggesting holding staff meetings and short courses to lessen restroom abuse.
I sort of think brutal torture and heads on pikes could get the message across a lot faster.

Funny, last night we were talking about this. A friend was saying that not all females were neat and clean with their habits. Sure, they all look great and smell good, but when you look around them… naku.

First off… jeepers what the hell happened here? You look bluer than usual. Get it?… it was funnier when I was thinking it. The site looks great, its like you kicked hello kitty out and yank garage band in…cool. I know hello kitty was never in, but you did have a rainbow. On to business, about the rant. This is one of those exclusively for female rant isn’t it? A guy who says anything for or against gets his ass kicked.

I totally agree. Perhaps the reason behind this gross negligence is that most (un)ladies assume a janitress will clean after them.
Garrrr!!! Let us flush those gals down the drain.

Our office restroom is well-maintained (luckily) but when I’m at the mall and need to use the ladies’ room and it’s filthy as hell, I hold it in until I find someplace clean. Or cleaner. It’s not healthy, but eurgh. I mean, I’ve never been the perfectly coiffed girl with manicured nails and not a single button out of place, but duuuuuude, all you need to do is flush!!! And wash your hands after!!!

@kat - exactly! these girls they all look so pretty in their dresses but when you use the restroom after them, my God, it’s like, what the hell happened in there? Is flushing such a chore?
@marman - thanks for that “blue” comment. I love the guitar in the header so I picked this. re the females only discussion, erm, not so much. you can say anything you want.
@duskfading - yes you’re right. that’s probably it. so lazy, these women. blech.
@kris - that’s just the thing. people clean the restrooms in the office thrice a day, and after one girl goes in it’s like the place been abandoned for years. flushing is easy. you push that thing down and that’s it. my goodness.

nako sis! i know exactly what you mean! I have seen AND been into these restrooms and I’d rather eat dirt than pee in it! And that’s not even counting the number of times you see something floating around in the toilet bowl! Ugghhh!!!
Toilet seat anyone? Naaahh ladies just SQUAT on the seat…don’t they know it’s called a SEAT for a reason?
Ahhh I have seen quite a few clean ladies rooms, too…unfortunately and pinas eh hindi masyado nag invest sa toilet necessities kaya walang toilet paper and CR…much less a toilet seat paper…

@zriz - exactly
dapat nga talaga matuto yung mga tao, hindi umasa lang sa taga-linis. hirap sa tin ang aarte eh, parang gusto astang amo lahat. even just flushing is hard? hay naku.
