You are 100% correct. I've paid my dues with that sort of job as well, and I was beyond shocked to realize that the womens' bathroom was terrible. Makes sense if you think about it though. Women will socialize and perform all sorts of bodily functions in there; they are there long enough they should be paying rent. Whereas men get in and out of those places in the least possible time, touching the least amount of items possible in the process.
That was OFTEN true of the restrooms I had to clean up - except for the occasional dookie to remove from the urinal in the men's room. Women's rooms had more trash on the floor, more cig butts and I eventually gave up fixing the toilet roll dispenser, because it was obvious after a while that they rolled it out by smacking it hard rather than just pulling it out.
And yeah, there was all that other stuff.
But I think the men's room was cleaner because there weren't as many men using it as women were using theirs. If we'd had two women's rooms, it might have been about the same.
