Here is a picture of a public toilet in Houston.
Now that you have seen the outside view, check out how it looks from the inside.
It's made entirely out of one-way glass. No one can see you in there. But when you are inside, it looks like you're sitting in a clear glass box. Would you/could you use it???

Uh, no! That would be TOTALLY strange! Plus, I'm paranoid enough that I'd worry that it was that special glass like in the Real World house where if the circuit is on, the glass is one way and when it's off, it's another. In other words, I'd be afraid that when you went in there, the reflection on the outside would somehow disappear and you really WOULD be in an open glass booth! LOL I suppose this is considered 'art', yes?

I'd use it. Of course, if I have to go bad enough, I'd use a port-a-potty. I do like that I can see how--and see if anyone is lying in wait--probably one reason they did it this way.

Maybe while you're sitting on it, somebody could come up and put 5 dollars in it and it would suddenly become transparent.

If I was horribly desperate, I guess I would have to. But after I had exhausted the availability of any public toilets in those nearby buildings. Otherwise....no way!

At first I thought it was located in the middle of the street, and that was why you were asking if someone would use it, then I scrolled down to see the interior. LOL Guess if you have any paranoia it wouldn't be a good idea to use the facility, but there are a lot of people who would just be amused by it. Since I'm now a business owner I admit the engineering caught my eye, and I was wondering if the 'box' is built large enough for wheelchair accessibility.

It would seem strange but if I had to go, I'd go!

Hermi, I am now officially in love with you. You always know how to put a smile on my face. Too bad I'm married and an older woman....but would you go steady with me? eta: i don't handle rejection very well, so please be gentle.

I have seen this picture before, and I am not sure it is in Houston. Sure, I could use it. No problem. I would first go round it and try to make sure you couldn't see in, LOL.

There was a club in Philadelphia, the Black Banana, that had a mirrored BR like this. I used it....

i'm not coming out of anywhere.....and even if hermi and i did elope it would be so very, very romantic. nothing to do with a TOILET CLOSET...coming or going. i guess we would just have to start a new thread. :>) going steady, just means a promise to always keep in touch now and then through posts. so very innocent. (now if hermi agreed to get matching tattoos, well, that's a different story! :>) ) lol

Abby, we can definitely go steady and/or get matching tattoos. How would you feel about a 4-leaf clover on your abs? Mamie, you're funny!

No, Abby, don't leave! LOL! Mamie was doing some closet cleaning earlier today and she came out for a break and I made a joke. She was just referencing that.
