Toilet Seats Down! Japan Airline Offers Women-Only Lavatories

Japan’s All Nippon Airways, sometimes known as ANA, says it will introduce a women-only lavatory on international flights next month.
An ANA spokesman said they did a survey, and this is what customers want: “Women said that they feel uncomfortable taking their time in the lavatory knowing that a male is waiting just behind them in line.” I haven’t noticed this in my home.
Is “time” the real reason? The spokesman denied it had anything to do with complaints that men are slobs (“we do not have that data”).
Okay, time to let my female editor chime in: “I like this idea, Rick, but seriously – a women-only bathroom line? It’ll take forever…”
Well, that’s one woman’s opinion. What’s yours?
