The ladies strike back

Here's a kinda gross, but definitely girl-friendly, joke that Daddy sent to me today:
A sexy woman went up to the bar in a quiet, rural pub. She gestured alluringly to the bartender, who approached her immediately. She seductively signaled that he should bring his face closer to hers. As he did, she gently caressed his full beard.
"Are you the manager?" she asked, softly stroking his face with both hands.
"Actually, no," he replied.
"Can you get him for me? I need to speak to him," she said, running her hands beyond his beard and into his hair.
"I'm afraid I can't," breathed the bartender. "Is there anything I can do?"
"Yes. I need for you to give him a message," she continued, running her forefinger across the bartender's lips and slyly popping a couple of her fingers into his mouth, allowing him to suck them gently.
"What should I tell him?" the bartender managed to ask.
"Tell him," she whispered, "that there's no toilet paper, hand soap, or paper towels in the ladies room."

So let's go off for a moment on ladies' rooms, the seemingly most-ignored space in most drinking, sports, and concert venues.
Number one, there should be twice as many. No matter how many may be in the building right now, double them. They'll be used. It's a fact of life that the ladies have to wait and the men don't, but we'd be more agreeable to waiting if we at least knew that we had twice as many stalls as the men.
Number two, all hail the ladies' room attendant. Yes, it's a drag to pay the dollar or two at the end of the night, but this woman is sure that all is in working order all the time. She's got the t.p. when you need it, not to mention paper towels, lip gloss and mouthwash. I remember that we were so jazzed when we discovered the t.p. hiding place outside the ladies' room at The Yucatan. Knowing that, we were rock stars.
Number three, keep the signs consistent. The symbol of the lady in her dress is good. Of course, the word "Ladies" or "Women," is good. "Lambs," as it is in a restaurant out here, is not necessarily easy to figure. Nor is the verbiage in another language. Of course, nothing's worse than knowing, absolutely knowing, that the sign said "Women," and finding out, in a bad way, that the room had been a men's room earlier that day. Repeat users don't always notice a changed sign. If you're going to switch them around, make the new signs really big.
