The Guys Room -vs- The Powder Room Ladies Gone Wild

If we have "The guys' room" can we please just have "The gals' room"

Having one named something generic and factual.....and the other named a reference to the 1950's and soft porn ....is extremely offputting.

I'm sure it was meant to be cutesy, but in business, this would be seen as a microaggression, or sexual harassment.

I suppose you could equalize in the other direction, and rename "the guys's room" something equally ridiculous and condescending like "The Humidor: Gentlemen Wanking"

Oh hell yes, I would totally post in The Humidor. Make it happen.

As for the powder room nom de guerre, it's only sexist if a man named it. And as Alex said, it was created by the women. Why does everything have to come down to offense? Can't we just say it would be nice to update the name and leave it at that?

Sent from my phone. Please forgive brevity and spelling.
