When I was in graduate school, my department had some grad student offices on the same floor as the department of Gender and Women's Studies. The women's room on that floor was converted into a unisex/no gender specified restroom. This is a good thing. I was kind of bitter that it wasn't the men's room, but I figured it was no problem, because yeah, there are stalls and you don't see anything anyway.

I got incredibly uncomfortable when I realized someone in the next stall was urinating standing up. I do not know why. I don't know what their gender was -- unisex bathroom, could have been anything. Hell, that doesn't even say anything for sure about their physiology. But I felt uncomfortable and embarrassed and stayed in the stall until they were gone.

I kept using that bathroom, though, until... Well, judging from the sign that went up, the GWS people were trying to give people the benefit of the doubt and requesting that whatever people's "personal elimination style", they clean up after themselves. I'm not sure what to make of the idea of a "personal elimination style", but I really hope that was it, because the other logical explanation is someone was vandalizing the only restroom specifically designated as unisex. Anyway, I got grossed out, chickened out, and started going one floor down.

If this story has a moral, it is that people get weird about semi-public nudity and who is allowed to be near them; that everyone deserves a place to pee where they don't have to worry about being judged; that turning one restroom per building unisex wouldn't kill anyone, because visiting another floor is mildly annoying but having to trek across campus is just ridiculous; and that the world can always find a new and different way of horrifying you.
