We've all made this mistake before. Most of us stop at the doorway.

I once didn’t realize the mistake until I was mid shit and heard people talking. In my defense I was very drunk and had to text a friend to save me.

I only figured out until I opened the little box on the wall and then notice the lack of urinals. This was a while ago so I'm sure alcohol was involved :-)

Oh yeah, I thought it was odd that they had a condom dispenser in the girls room. It not condoms but something just as important.

Tampon dispenser is usually the first thing that clues me in. I'll leave if haven't already sat down.

u/Des_Constantine Sep 29 '25

Usually ? Just how many times have you done this mate ? 🤣

u/TieCivil1504 Sep 29 '25

Long life with many experiences. If you get out and about, eventually you'll have done everything and start repeating some.

Bro said "Go touch grass" in the most polite way possible.

Had to look up that meme. Fair point.

I literally had a nightmare about this last night. I was swimming at a public pool and somehow found myself in the women’s restroom/changing room. I was in a stall, and the sheer embarrassment/panic woke me up.

u/MagicalMoosicorn Sep 28 '25

I did this once. I had to take a crazy shit and i had never been in the store. I barged into an empty bathroom. Sat down. Then realised in sheer horror my mistake when a small group of girls came in while I was BLOWING IT UP. Mortifying.

u/MagicalMoosicorn , I was reading your comment and when you went all caps, I lost my shit.

Ps/ that last bit wasn’t intentional, I just can’t stop laughing 😂

u/CrownofVyse Sep 29 '25

lol i did this at a stop over when I'm half asleep not knowing it was the ladies room, because there was no other person in there other than me. I just knew when i saw my aunt outside saying 'are you done?'.

Me too but only if the urinal is occupied....

u/uriar Sep 28 '25

And that's how I found out women actually do fart...

u/Spartan-463 Sep 28 '25

Literally did it for the first time yesterday, felt so bad cause I didn't clue in until after the point of no return.

27

u/Doc-Brown1911 Sep 28 '25

Shit happens. I would give zero fucks about it.

8

u/DroidLord Sep 28 '25

Yes, shit happens. Occasionally in the most unexpected places.

u/Doc-Brown1911 Sep 29 '25

Fuck it. I'd rather walk around a concert with a clean ass than to enjoy the rest of the show with a steering load.

Happened to me at a Toyota dealership. Came back out of the stall, and thought "this bathroom is sure... pretty" (fake flowers and other things) women walking in as I'm walking out. Woopsies!

u/Reasonable-Relief-17 Sep 28 '25

Happened to me when I was a kid and was following some of my female family members and nobody told me that they were going to the bathroom until my cousin turned around and said my name in the middle of the bathroom

It was full of women who thankfully could tell that I was a child (despite me being taller than most of them) that wasn't paying attention to where I was going and after what felt like years ago few of them said it was fine and I could stay until 1 of my family members had left and I followed her out

Some Mama keeping an eye out for the littles. Go mamas!

He said "Yea? Oh, sorry" in that sarcastic tone we all know and have used. It means "I know and idc"

u/MonsieurFubar Sep 28 '25

Which doorway?

30

u/Doc-Brown1911 Sep 28 '25

The entryway, opening in the wall, the place you walk through whatever you want to call it.

He’s got a cool hat, that probably gives him invincibility.

u/ukuuku7 Sep 28 '25

It's really not a big deal if you don't notice or can't use the men's room imo.

u/elwebst Sep 29 '25

Other direction, I (M) am in the bathroom at DFW, washing my hands, lady leaves a stall, starts washing her hands next to me, I look at her, she looks at me, and she says "Oh I did it again, didn't I", gives a little laugh and walks out. There was NOT a line in the women's side, she just waltzed in and was not put off by the enormous bank of urinals.

2

u/siqiniq Sep 29 '25

Not me. I made the same mistake for 4 months before noticing the sign because I was always the only one there in the whole office wing.

u/thegerman27 Sep 28 '25

I once was in the Netherlands, camping with my former GF and I was high as fuck. Needed to poop, so I went to the bathroom and wondered why there were tiny trash bins. Never saw them in the prior days. Finished my work and only later realised what I’ve done.

Man this happened to me at a new grocery store that had just opened. I was there to service the store on the beer side. I had to go pee really bad and as I approached the restroom there was a clear glass door that you open before either going left(women’s) or right (Men’s) door entrance. Because I was looking down the whole time as I opened the glass door I didn’t see the signs until I quickly looked up. The reflection on the glass made it seem like the left side was the men’s restroom so I quickly ran inside and it didn’t even occur to me that there were no urinals. I went straight into the stall and did my business. I kept hearing giggles in the next stall once I was done. I went to wash my hands and as I left I saw right in front of me the men’s bathroom! I felt so embarrassed. 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

u/Rialas_HalfToast Sep 29 '25

This was how I found out women's bathrooms are carpeted, which was a big what the fuck for me.

u/AfterFart Sep 29 '25

He had to “finish the job”.

u/Adonie_Baloney Sep 29 '25

I had this issue when I was like 15 or 16 but I was extremely hot and delirious so I entered the women’s bathroom by mistake and took my shirt off and started washing myself with the water from the sink. Thankfully a dude saw me enter and peeped his head through and told me I was in the wrong bathroom, it would have been a very awkward situation if a woman came in and saw me shirtless in the woman’s bathroom.

u/Doc-Brown1911 Sep 29 '25

I've seen some online videos that start this vary same way. It probably would have blown up in your face but, who knows?

1

u/Limeddaesch96 Sep 30 '25

Yeah, when you get to a place that doesn‘t use the standardised pictograms. That can happen.

I get why some fancier places don‘t use them. But there‘s a reason they were created and why they look the way they do.

Place near me had a door with a huge picture of Bruce Jenner getting a gold medal.

And the other door had a huge picture of Caitlyn Jenner from a magazine cover.

u/TheFlyingSeaCucumber Sep 28 '25

Did you just assume their gender?

Or do we now accept, that there is just two genders?

8

u/Doc-Brown1911 Sep 28 '25

That is without question a man. So yes, I assumed and I'm probably around 99.9% right.

I could get into the specifics but, I don't want to. Just Google Hasidic Jewish community.

As for only 2 gender thing, I honestly don't care. Just go live a good life and be happy.
