OMG! This has soooo happened to me!
Once my husband and I were taking the kids to a movie and we were running a little late. Upon bying our tickets and getting into a very long linne for popcorn, I realized that I had to go tinkle! While I took myself and my 3 year old to the potty my husband remained in line with my older child.
Well, you know how usually the womens restrooms are on the right hand side with the mens being on the left? Anyway, that is what I am used to and being in a huge hurry I just assumed it to be so and automatically went to the right.
I was sitting in the stall tinkling when I heard someone come i the bathroom. I peered under that stall and saw my husbands tennis shoes run by! It startled me so much that I screamed out and said "O My God! Gary you are in the womans bathroom!"
Much to my suprise and Horror he answered back in an equally horrified voice, "NO! YOU are in the MAN's!!!!!!!!" He then turned and ran back out of the bathroom!

*LOL* Did he stand watch for you, then?
You know, I had never thought of the left/right thing. But, when I read that, I sat here, trying to picture all the places I go, and where the bathrooms are situated. The lady's ARE on the right! How interesting. I will have to remember that next time I get in a hurry.

I think that It was interesting.. the girls screaming around and trying to kick me out while they are barely dressed up.. it's was a nice experience.. lol after that day every male from school wanted to ask me who and what did I see.. It was very fun I must say and by my age at that time, very graphic.. lol

I just can't understand why it happened but there was once I went to a ladies toilet twice in the same day. And its the same toilet too! Apparently I realised I was in the wrong toilet when I saw the scenery was slightly different from the gents. Luckily there was no one inside when I accidentally barged in at both times and I made a quick exit and head to right toilet before someone sees me.

Hup! its because of my crazy friends...i still remember that ..it was long back we went for inter college competition to out of place. So its a new place for all of us.
Being crazy friends have changed the idols and watched the reaction of others, the originals students of that colleges goes into the right one where the outsiders are followed the idols and went into the wrong. It developed as the MESS and become a confusion. That instant we found a issue was comming up ! so asusual we escaped from there... and it got a long time to settle down when the house keeping staff realised and changed the right idol!!!!!
Friends always make crazy things...but we enjoyed a lot that day...still i used to laugh if come across to see idols in toilets....
What do you say about this ? Do you want to be part of our friends group ?

Okay, I was 12 years old then, but I can remember this incident for life. New term in school and we had new classrooms. My previous classroom was on the 3rd floor and the girl's toilet was just beside my classroom. Now teh classroom was on 4th floor and boy's toilet was beside the classrooms. I think you can guess. I had to go so bad, that I left my friend behind and rushed to the toilet. I went in straight into boy's toilet as I was so used to having the toilet beside our classroom in the previous year. Luckily there was no one in the toilet. I was wondering how come it looked a little different. Did they renovate it? Then I realised I was in the boy's toilet and rushed out. Just then, my friend who was supposed to accompany me, but I left her behind caught up and saw what I did. She laughed so bad. The worst part was that there was someone else who saw me rushing out of the boy's toilet. It was the guy who liked me in class. He couldn't help but laugh too. I felt utterly embarrassed by the incident.

I thought I did. I had to pee so bad that I wasn't really paying attention to which door I went in. When I came out of the stall, there was a man standing there washing his hands. I just stood there, frozen. He looked at me and smiled, said hello. I kind of nodded to him and headed for the door. As I walked out, I looked at the door, turned around, went back in, looked at the man, walked back and looked at the door again. As he was walking out, I looked at the door again, went back in and washed my hands. I had to laugh out loud. I still wonder if that man ever realized he was in the lady's room, or if he thought I had made the mistake.

Well, it certainly wasn't very comfortable for ME when I walked out and saw him standing there!*LOL* It IS funny now. The mental image of me walking in and out of the bathroom, looking at the sign on the door more than once makes me giggle a bit.

no i have never experienced it but i could imagine how a person might have felt if it happens. specially if its a lady entering in gents toilet its really horrible.
and i think we have to be carefull enough about this whenever we have to go to toilet anywhere outside.
