It’s time to get real about how much we don’t want to talk about what’s going on in the bathroom. There’s a reason we have doors on our stalls in this country. And there’s a reason why some companies still call it bath tissue, the most euphemistically euphemistic euphemism of all. Whether I enjoy […]
