dream, bathroom, gender stuff, capitalism?
I had a dream that I was at a school basketball game. When it was over, I needed to use the bathroom. While walking to it, I realized I was at my old high school, but things were different.
I finally got to the bathroom, it had a weird looking door with a sign that mentioned ads and a warning about male noises. I assumed it was the men's bathroom because of the noises part, so I entered.

To my surprise, it looked more like a store than a bathroom with products on display and there were people that appeared both male and female walking around, but mostly female. At first, I thought I was in the wrong bathroom and became nervous, but the others weren't bothered by my presence at all. I realized it was actually a gender neutral bathroom and I was happy about it.

I went to one of the odd hole-in-the-ground urinals and used it, realizing it actually had a TV inside the hole with the cartoon Chowder on it. I woke up after that.
I feel like this dream is drawn from my desire to look more feminine or cute than I currently do. I'm pretty androgynous when it comes to body type, but my body hair and quick-growing beard make me look more masculine than I want to look.
