The problem is that men and women do go to the bathroom differently. Men do not have to take their pants down and sit if they are just urinating. That is why the urinal is so convenient, it takes up very little room compared to the toilet and the stall, thus more of them can fit into a smaller space. It is also much quicker for males to use a urinal. If theaters were to dispense with the Men's and Women's room and just have gender neutral restrooms, the result would be a longer time for EVERYONE. So, if this were to happen, look for 30 minute intermissions to become the norm in theaters.

(BTW, there was nothing to indicate that there was any kind of "emergency" with these women or the children they brought into the men's room. They weren't racing for the toilets and the girls weren't doing the "pee-pee dance" (as my kids always called it. It just seemed like they did not want to wait in a long line.)
