Your suggestion that this issue is about paternalism is silly. I don't pretend to know women any better than they do. What I *do* know is that as a man I want privacy in my restroom that's marked "Men." Women have a designated restroom and should use that. And of course we divide along gender lines! It's about women using men's bathrooms, and the incidental parallel someone brought up of whether a man would have a similar right to walk into a women's room. Incidentally, regardless of your personal knowledge of people using restrooms at the theater, I suspect that the same percentages of people had to hold themselves in all the past years when men went to the men's room and women to the women's room.
