It's so sad that gay people can't use this

These sorts of signs are installed in the women's bathroom and not the men's, so that women know the code and men don't. That way a woman can use the code to avoid a creep and the staff will understand, but the guy harassing her won't. If a gay man is being harassed, though, he doesn't know the code. And if a lesbian is harassing someone, she knows the code and it's therefore worthless.

Seems an obvious improvement would be to install a sign with a different code drink in the men's bathroom? It wouldn't work well for same-gender dates though
