I Got an Email Titled : Subject: WOULD YOU-COULD YOU?????????

Here's a picture of a public toilet in Houston ... FIRST see picture number 1.

Now that you have seen the outside view of the Toilet,

Just spend another minute (Look at pic two) to see how it looks from inside.

That's made entirely out of one-way glass. No one can see you in there,

but when you are inside, it looks like you're sitting in a clear glass box.

Would you / could you use it ???

Hmm... I'd use it, if they gave me a Klondike Bar.

It depends on if you can fit more than one person in...

Yeah, I'd use it.

I will ask this, and ask it once: What. The. Fuck?

Fuck?

Yes, exactly why you want it built for two! :D

I'd use it, but then, I do have the habit of going right up to one-way glass and looking right through it, and I'm sure others do as well...

But for a Klondike Bar, no question, I'd do it.

I would use it, sure. I'd also probably crash clear into it walking down the street.

But... Why!?

Anyway, you know what would be cool? If they reversed it, so to make people think that they couldn't be seen from the outside. That would be hilarious.

Because having sex in public is exciting! This way you can have all of the thrills, and none of the court cases! :D

are those the same toilet, it just seems like they two pictures don't line up right. you would think the toilet would be oppisite the door, and from the picture there are trees and stuff in the back ground, but the second one doesn't have any pictures. maybe its just blocking more then I think, who knows.

Well, I'd be freaked the hell out the entire time, but I'd know that I couldn't be seen... no matter just how damn weird it would be. o_0

I would SO TOTALLY use that. It would be such a thrill. And it would be incredibly funny to make funny faces or motions and watch people not giving a damn, because they can't see.

One question though, how does the light from outside come in, yet reflect off the outside?

Even better, you could moon them!

And I would imagine that the top is open to allow sunlight to enter.

No, the door's on the side where the camera is on the inside pic. The tree is to the right. (thank heavens for my spatial skills)

Yeah, I'd use it.Hmm... I like the way you think!

So I said I'd use it, 'cause I'll try just about anything (not dangerous/harmful) once. Also, I once went to a club that had doors like that... except they were see-through on the outside, too, until you went in and locked the door, which turned them opaque on the outside, but you could still see from the inside. I'm not entirely sure how the whole thing worked, it was quite unnerving, but cool all the same.

Sure, but I'd have to be sure it stayed transparent first. I wouldn't be the first one in, in other words, but I'd go in eventually.

Being without doubt the cleanest public toilet I have ever seen, gods yes.

And afterward I'd freak people out by standing outside the box and staring in as if I could see them. Heh heh heh heh....

Yes, I'd use it....but why is the hand basin attached to the toilet? There's something weird about that...I'd be worried about washing my hands in my crap. O_O But I'm paranoid like that. And it's so clean! O_O All the public toilets I've ever been forced to use have been disgusting and smell worse than they should. But this is clean! O_O

I'd use it.

that toilet looks so efficient. Everything all in one. So i'd use it if only for that.

In the unlikely event that I had to use a public toilet, I would use either. They both look clean.

If I was desperate I would use it otherwise no.

I've not doubt the two pictures are the same toilet, but they're most certainly in different places. The areas are totally different. In the outside, you can see a small wall behind the toilet, but it is not there on the inside shot. that is assuming the toilet is in the logical position - opposite the door.

I'd use it, but I'd have to be sure that the glass wasn't like those electrochromic windows that go from opaque to transparent... I don't want it going transparent on me whilst I'm in there.

They have these toilets in Europe, they are a blast to use.

YES!

Though... it makes the point of mooning someone a bit pointless.
