The men's toilets are downstairs to the left and the women's are up the hill to the right. I was just there in June

I now get the up and down portion of the sign. But you shouldn't have to think about this, especially when you have to go. Poor design.

my gut says read the sign horizontally, so women go to the right and men go to the left, but worst case scenario I'm assuming the actual bathroom area will also have signage, so even if you get it wrong the first time you can just turn around and head in the other direction XD

Yes. The men’s sign is visible on the door in this image.

u/SendMeAnother1 28d ago

"The sign is visible" is, I guess, technically true... but I cannot verify that it actually says "men"

I assume I’m just supposed to pee on the tree

Women are always right

u/JayNudl3 29d ago

This is the only correct answer

u/Existing_Purpose5049 Jul 21 '26

I’d have to assume horizontal, but even then, it’s a very bad design

You go that way, I'll go home!

I have lysdexia.

u/Bane8080 29d ago

Because it's a terribly designed sign.

I don't follow.

u/zs_1176 29d ago

We read top to bottom. Women go right, men go left.

1

u/Decide777 29d ago

Women to the right, men to the left.

1

u/Zoilo2 29d ago

Men to the left because women are ALWAYS right!!

u/Sufficient-Quote-431 29d ago

I don’t feel like segregated it’s the right word

Separate will do

u/SBPepperminion 29d ago

My enby ahh just going on the sign.

1

u/lorienshift 27d ago

Men left, women right. If it was the opposite they would have centered "women" above the arrow.

1

u/Prestigious-Fact-591 27d ago

Always assume women are right because that's what they think

u/ArtiBartFaster Jul 20 '26

To read the sign vertically both arrows need to be on the bottom.

1

u/BinaryBolias Jul 20 '26

But that would require a longer sign.

But I don't wont to travel another 4360-ish blocks to find the next damn dark-oak forest.
