In all my travels around the world I've seen lots of bathrooms and toilets, many of them quite scary (with fear of falling through rotting boards down into the hole) but I've never seen a unisex bathroom. I enjoyed your story and wonder if…

My first experience was this was many years ago in Toronto. In the gay and lesbian area of the city (FYI - one of the biggest in North America), I went into a coffee shop where the bathrooms were co-ed. Luckily, I was all alone in there but like…

in Italy, coed bathrooms are very common. It is also common for the "stalls" to be fully walled things, but this doesn't mean that you cannot hear anything going on next door. Two coed cans I have disliked are: -my office. Yes, i pee,…

A very awkward situation, but I think you handled it quite well. Thanks for sharing - I'm sure we will be seeing more and more of these types of bathrooms as they become the new cheeky trend at restaurants and hotels.

OMG, this is hilarious! I have not been in a coed bathroom before, and I hope I never have to. That would just be too awkward for words. Funny to read about, not so funny to live it. :-)

Unisex Coed Bathroom, Our First Experience

I thought I would share this recent experience from our travels with my new TBEX friends.
