I have been to highway rest stops where they have "family bathrooms" which are unisex. I also have worked in buildings where the bathrooms were unisex. Doesn't bother me. But I do see your point, TJ. It would create more opportunity for perverts.
But on the subject of your "magic stick" (love that name!)--can't say I blame the guy!
