2. FEMALE BATHROOM ETIQUETTE Narrated Power Point Lecture Rev. John Wiley Fox, Instructor #2 IN THIS SERIES PLEASE REVIEW #1 BEFORE REVIEWING THIS ONE.

3. There is one question that Every male has asked: WHY?

4. Why do girls ALWAYS go to the bathroom in pairs? Or in Groups?

5. Something that you will NEVER hear one guy say to another: “I need to go to the bathroom, do you want to go with me?”

6. Bathroom Patrol became a habit But, we know there are some really good reasons for women to use public restrooms in at least pairs, if not groups. And, some are really good.

7. Women Learned how to gather together to go to the bathroom – they don’t really remember how, why or when - but deep down we all know it all started with: Potty Patrol! How many other things have we accepted as natural in our lives which are not natural actions but LEARNED actions? Is How we Communicate one of those? Think About It.

8. Neither way is right! Neither way is wrong! Each is just the way that group learned to go to the bathroom. Be careful when you criticize others when they do things differently than you do them. Be Very Careful of Judging them. Be ESPECIALLY Careful when it comes to Communication Styles and Rituals. Different cultures have different ways – just because they are different doesn’t mean they are wrong, just different. Just because we do things our way, doesn’t mean our way is right. Is there Really always just ONE way to do things?

9. So, ladies, still laughing at the guys? Probably, but only because you are used to your way of acting and the way men act seems strange, even though Mama started it all. BUT, please remember the purpose here is NOT to explain male or female bathroom etiquette. My purpose is to lead you into considering that there are many aspects of our lives that are not really natural to us, but are actually learned behaviors. My concern is that we then use this idea and apply it to different LEARNED communication styles and how the affect communication between different groups, include men and women. jwf
