Before you male readers dismiss today's blog as a female dilema I want you to know I have seen your reactions when your immediate want for a restroom wasn't met. I happened to be waiting near a men's restroom that was blocked from entry because a woman was inside cleaning. Out of the 6 men that stopped to use that facility 4 took off in a huff,out of the 2 that waited one was a man waiting to change a babies diaper (it was closed a total of 5 minutes). You see men rarely have to deal with lines in restrooms and don't realize the inconvenience females endure on a regular basis.
Now on the the real question of the day. When waiting in line for the next available stall,which invaribly you will have to do (the wait is directly proportional to the urgencey of you need) the handicapped stall is enlisted into service as a regular stall. If a disabled person comes in do they go to the front of the line or wait with everyone else? They don't want to be treated differently,but does that apply here? I am not sure of the etiquette/protocol for this instance. As long as I am posing questions about the handicapped what happens to them once they are on a plane? There are no handicapped bathrooms for them there,and they don't have their wheelchairs to get to them anyway. Maybe they use a catheter for flying...but that doesn't cover every possible bathroom need. Anyone have the answer?
