Signs to Consider

On Monday nights I have a co-ed hockey skills class. We do skating, passing, stick-handling and shooting drills for an hour. The gender ratio in the class is fairly balanced; there are more males than females, but not by all that much.

There is a board near the entrance of the arena that outlines who uses which change room. Before league games, for example, it will say something like "Red team #3, Blue #5" etc. For co-ed classes, it divides the groups by gender.

This week the sign said:

7pm Class
Men - Change room #6
Girls - Change room #3

I was tempted to ask the rink guys where the women were supposed to change, but I assumed they wouldn't get it.

Imagine the confusion if it had said "Women and Boys" instead of "Men and Girls."

Cheers.
