The 'ronseal' of toilet signage ?

[lightlypoached]

'ronseal' referring to the fact that I think it does exactly what is says on the tin. Ie. Penises this way, vaginas in here ?

Spotted in a Netherlands loo apologies for the dark photo. It was a very dark and trendy place

What do we think ?

I always thought the peach meant bum, not vagina 🤔

Is the peach one for poos?

Sit down (toilets) stand up (urinals) maybe?

peach usually means bum.

Surely a cat would have been more appropriate than a peach?🐱

I think sometimes places can get too clever with toilet signs and then it’s not absolutely clear what is meant!

This is not the Ronseal of signage at all because as pp said, peach usually means bum….

Great, if they want people confusedly walking into the wrong loo.

I haven’t got either of them about my person unless I’ve just been shopping. How do I even know these are doors to loos?

Apparently peach can be either fanny or bum of both, according to the various (and often anatomically incorrect) definitions on Urban Dictionary.

Oh, and if it is really necessary to have a food symbol for a penus, wouldn't a sausage be better?

I thought it was a strawberry

I thought the taco emoji meant fanny. But then I'm a bit old for all this symbolism, if only there were words that could be used for the different sexes.

Me too! I was thinking ‘well everyone has a bum!’

If it was actually Ronseal then these toilets would be segregated by plant phylogeny and no use to man or beast.

Aubergines are huge though, clearly I've been dating all the wrong men.

Because using the words 'Men' and 'Women' are too controversial 🙄
I'd consider the place more edgy if they used the actual real words - brave!

The peach (if that's what it is) is almost heart shaped, and it's reminded me of an episode of Cybill. It was Valentine's day and Cybill Shepherd was trying to convince her friend that all of the symbolism around Valentine's (hearts everywhere) were based on the way a vulva looks when you lie down legs akimbo, and nothing to do with the organ that pumps blood. It was funny.

Anyway, yes, I'd know which of those toilets to use.

I'd assume it meant urinals vs toilets?

This wasn't in the UK and it's a hotel catering to multiple nationalities. Also it's v groovy place so normal words would not be de rigeur 😬

I was at a pub in Gloucestershire recently with a banana on one door and a peach on another

Unlike Kier Starmer, they know what a man is.

Where in the world is ‘so groovy’ they can’t even use normal words?

You could have male and female hazel flowers - catkins and those tiny red rosettes.
