Restroom Etiquette for the Modern Girl

Just back from vacation and was reminded yet again about how stupid women’s behaviors in public restrooms are. So here are some hints for your future visits to the loo.

That’s My Name

For much of my life, I’ve gone by a nickname. Through my teens I was “Silky” for obscure reasons I don’t even remember. But it had something to do with the famous horse, Silky Sullivan, and something to do with my older brother being called Silky when he was a pretty good young pitcher. But mostly it had to do with me not wanting to be called “Deb” or “Debbie.” I hated it. I still hate it.
