Women Are Gross

(Taken by my friend Kristen Gill in the women's bathroom at Jake's Saloon in Chelsea.)

I've talked about them before, the Dirty Toilets of New York City but when I saw this, I couldn't resist, I had to share it with you. I know; HUMANS are gross and most male restrooms stink to high heaven because for some reason they can't bring themselves to aim. But for women, what is the excuse? I mean really? What was going on in this woman's mind when she piled an enormous mound of TP onto the toilet, did her business and then just WALKED AWAY FROM IT?!

It's funny to me because in this day and age (yes I'm channeling my inner 80 year old) women are all about empowering one another. You ever been to breast cancer event or a Danskin Triathlon? Both places where women are all about cheering for one another and being a part of "the power of the goddess." Where does that go when you use a public toilet people?

Can't we come together for the cleanliness of our shared potties? Bond as one unit to fight against the oppressive bathroom conditions of the greater New York area? This is all I ask ..next time you see a woman walk out of a stall after having sprinkled the entire toilet lid with her urine...stop her ass and call her on it!

Finally, because I am all about the support and the learning....
If you choose to hover, all you have to do to leave the bowl clean for your sisters is to lift the lid (which can be done with your foot). By lifting the lid you have more space and so will be less likely to pee all over the seat. See? Easy right?! Now spread the word- not the pee ladies!
