Peep, Tom, peep!
Negative stereotyping in restroom signs is not limited to women; some signs exhibit a male-biased message. This particular design suggests that men often engage in inappropriate behavior in bathrooms, which is offensive and unfounded.
The image of a male figure peeping over the divider into the women’s restroom is disrespectful to both men and women. Surprisingly, the establishment’s administration allowed such a design, as it paints all men in a negative light and disregards responsible behavior.
