9. It's perfectly OK in my book for an able-bodied person to use the
handicapped stall if they are not preventing a handicapped person from using it. I saw a line of about 25 women in a restroom avoiding the handicapped stall like the plague, and I asked if anyone needed to use it. No one did, so I did. A whole beeline of women behind me used it too. All of us would gladly have waited if there were indeed someone with mobility impairment that needed the stall.
7. Two stalls, one occupied, handicapped stall unoccupied
Should I wait for the idiot reading the newspaper in the occupied stall, or should I use the handicapped stall? I'll use the handicapped stall, thank you very much.
14. There aren't any handicapped women at my office. So, what, on the off chance that
someone with a handicap happens to be visiting my office and just happens to need to use the same bathroom at the same time I'm using it, I'm supposed to not use it?
I use the handicapped stall because of my rather rubenesque body habitus. Those inward swinging doors on the teeny stalls are awkward. I should note that the loo that I use is at the end of the building where the public rarely ventures, so it is very unlikely anyone disabled would venture in there, so that absolves me of douchebag status as cited downthread.
11. The cleanest one, which is often asking for too much in the men's room.
In related news, a few days ago I encountered a guy text messaging at the urinal... at least I hope he was text messaging and not sending a picture of his little friend to someone.
