What is the deal with girls and bathrooms? It is like they are out best friends when we are out anywhere. Not only do we use it for personal  reasons, but we also use it for multiple other reasons.

Last night for instance…it was used for a therapy session. You know, when you’re at a table with mixed genders…you can’t go talking about “how much you like _____” when BLANK is sitting at the table… so where shall we talk about it…the bathroom! When you are having a moment of freaking out you go to the bathroom with your bestie so she can give you a heart to heart and tell you how amazing you are…and even blow in your eyes to avoid tears from ruining your make-up. I really should do a study on what the main reason for women using the bathroom is…. I am 90% sure it would be to talk about life problems. Then there is the occasion usage of reapplying make-up, making a phone call, personal use. I am sure there are LOTS more reasons women use the bathroom so much.

But seriously…really, a bathroom is a therapy “safe space”. Which is why I think ALL women’s restrooms should at least have chairs…preferrably couches. That way when you are having a heart to heart with your girl friend about “how _____ plays with your mind” then you don’t have to sit on the window sill or on top of the toilet. You can sit and have your therapy session on a big comfy couch. Sounds like a good idea to me.

Boys must think we are the WEIRDEST species…EVER. I mean they don’t scurry off to the bathroom when they need to talk to their friend… then again, they don’t NEED to talk about things like that I suppose. But when a couple girls “go to use the bathroom” and don’t come back for like 20 minutes…what do they think is going on? Well fellas, here is a hint. Girls go to the bathroom in pairs when talk time is needed. Don’t be alarmed though…it is just what we do. 😉
