I always love freaking out new male co-workers by telling them about the couch in the ladies room. They don't have one theirs. Between that, and the fancy lounges in department store ladies rooms, I think that women have it pretty good, bathroom-wise.
Yeah, there used to be a law in RI that at least one ladies room in every non-residential building had to have a cot or such like. Which often led to a lot of yelling first thing in the morning at the URI chemistry dept. when someone would stumble across a male graduate student sleeping in the staff ladies room.

Was there a rationale for that? I mean, a good one?

I don't know how you do this everyday, Jilli. The one time I wore Elizabethan with the 20-yards of skirt (in two skirts) and the hoops and the boned bodice that prevents normal bending in the torso, I was trapped with only normal sized stalls at the event site. I sat there nearly in tears wondering if I was going to have to take the whole damned mess off to cope properly.

Monkeys carrying chamber pots would assist you.

I'm sure there was some sort of rationale, a paternal respect for female frailty?
Oh, wait, you said a good one...
The law also required that women get a lunch break. Men could go hungry.

There should totally be a lawyer with that name.

You don't even have to go that far back. When I was in college, bodystockings were all the rage.
