I was told at one point that our bladders, even though they are the same size as men's, tend to feel full faster because of pressure from the uterus Whether this is true, I don't know, but I noticed that my women friends and I certainly go to the bathroom more frequently than men. The Kitchener Center in the Square auditorium (which is fairly new) has 3 women bathrooms/ 1 men. At intermission the lines for each bathroom are about the same length. It looks like they got their ratios right. Sophie Quigley ...!{clyde,ihnp4,decvax}!watmath!saquigley
