Sophomore S--

Went to the Sachler Museum for the second time today. Before appreciating profound works of art one must necessarily go use the restroom. There I was confronted with a work of art - inside the bathroom!

It was dedicated to pride, the pride of lesbians.

Then I began thinking - why are the doors pink? Why is this is in the womens bathroom? Is it because women are the ones who must first begin to rethink stereotypes regarding lesbians before men will begin taking the topic seriously? (As opposed to the - lesbians, that's hot - stance taken by most men)

I pondered all this as I began washing my hands. And the mirror, it was tilted! An attempt to make us rethink how women define themselves via reflection and image?? To which I realized, no, it was probably just so people in wheelchairs could see themselves (aha, makes us rethink equality and our taken for granted quality of life).

After exiting the womens bathroom I eagerly rushed to the mens to see what interesting conclusions I could draw from their bathroom only to see the door had the same plaque about lesbian pride that the women's bathroom did. Bah, over analysis strikes again.

On a different note - I reaaalllyy need a camera, sigh.
