They (that ubiquitous "they" again!) also forget to take into account
that women have to divest themselves of clothing then put all those
clothes back again (can be VERY time consuming, especially in winter). 
And men merely have to unzip and rezip (quick).



Something for a man to watch as he waits for his wife to get to the
front of the queue.

And why do the women in desperation not go into the door marked for men
only, even when they know that the room is empty?
