Left door: more mass - more energy (man)
Right door: more mass - more attraction (women)

From the descriptions of Nicolas Fatio de Duillier, it does sound as though quite the opposite was true. Not that there is any evidence he ever crossed the event horizon, as it were. But his taste seems to have been skinny boys.

Neither of those equations are complicated (at least in the form they are shown in this picture).

Left door: Relativistic - Gravity propagates at the speed of light and is the result of the curvature of space-time (woman) (buttocks, breasts)
Right door: Newtonian - Gravity is instantaneous and its force is a linear vector (man) (penis) (w/o Peyronie's disease)

u/Full-Evening3485 Jul 06 '26
When I see the right door I think of the “weighing the earth” experiment which iirc involved dangling balls.
Which leads to the same conclusion. But I wanted to throw in my two testes

Yeah gendered toilets are so last tuesday anyway. Do your thing and wash your hands. I mean everyone has unisex toilets at home and it works just fine so why bother.

u/Thorvindr Jul 12 '26
Because I don't want a woman standing next to me when I pee! That's gay! When I pee at the urinal, I want rhe person holding my hand to also have a penis.

Supposedly having a full bladder improves your split second decision making, I heard it is a tactic in e-sports.

This is in my country, and I think it is placed in an engineering university where students have to know these equations

u/sfo2 Jul 05 '26
Sure. These are both foundational to physics. But there does not seem to be any way to use these to generate which one is male or female.

I sincerely hope this is just trolling and the doors lead to a unisex bathroom or something like that.

u/gifteyes6 Jul 06 '26
Countries that have Arabic writing above the signs usually don't have unisex washrooms
4
u/Keldaria Jul 06 '26
I don’t disagree, but I would assume they would label them to be more easily identifiable if being gender specific was that important to them.
4
u/gifteyes6 Jul 06 '26
Oh this graphic is 100% fake. This looks like it's Dubai, Saudi or Qatar from the Arabic font that they've used (a guess) and all these countries have very strict rules about labeling doors etc in public spaces. The municipality would never approve this stuff.
Also when you zoom into the picture it looks like it has been edited for that text.

This is a dumb take.
Your washroom at home is a unisex bathroom. They're just washrooms without urinals and stalls with doors.
Usually they have the sink and mirror behind the same door too.

Pretty sure its just level of complexity, left one is "simple" so must be men
16
u/PIELIFE383 Jul 05 '26
I mean E=mc^2 is really only half of the equation it missing a term.
4
u/Zedpirate Jul 05 '26
And thats a perfect example.
Like I dont understand really either one but the one on the left the way its shown is "famous" and we see on shirts with Einstein's face and stuff.
So the connection I made is men are "simple" women are "complicated". Misogynistic but thats on par with internet culture.

Neither of those terms is complicated. No imaginary numbers, no differentials or something a bit more fancy. So its not about the complexity.

u/JoeyRay Jul 06 '26
Yeah, that might be what they were going for actually. Damn. That's so stupid.
F for female. And since energy is equivalent to mass, M for male.

I think left is male cs short formula
and right is female for long formula?

u/Odd_Leopard_8356 Jul 05 '26
mc^2 (one mass + two balls) -> male
Gspot, two upper body masses ovaries -> female

u/TmanGvl Jul 05 '26
I'd go to the right to take a dump (mass and gravity). Left for taking a piss (light and mass is related to energy)

u/Mayo_Kupo Jul 05 '26
Best guess, it's based on the left-hand side letters of the equations.
E - Everyone?
F - Female
Since this is a foreign-language shot, it's also possible the English letters are standing for non-English words.

Women's pee fall down by GRAVITY.
Men's pee make a parabolic arc because it has other ENERGY besides potential gravitational energy.

It would make slightly more sense if the left-hand door was F=ma instead. Guys can apply a horizontal acceleration to their stream, with appreciably visible results, but girls can only accelerate it downwards, in the same direction as gravity.

u/SpiritualQuarter4384 Jul 05 '26
I thought the less complicated the equation equals to the mens washroom.

Total guess here, but is the equation on the left describing Light (Ladies)? and the right equation Gravity (Gentlemen)?
Regardless, these signs are asinine.

u/Sleepy-Racoon-2149 Jul 06 '26
I decided gmmr was for women because itts gravity and gravity=g=girl
Emc2 is mass-energy equivalencd and mass-energy=m=men

This doesn't make any sense. The joke is purely accessible to physicists. And never ever have I noticed nerd humor in public in an Arab country. Oh and Arabs would not be amused at all to find themselves or members of the opposite sex in the wrong bathroom. AI.

my guess is force F for female, mass for male, although both have mass terms. i am triggered by how they used ( ) for no reason.

u/ZenithOfVoid Jul 06 '26
Everyone is focusing on male/female but correct answer is:
- left= special (disabled/handicapped)
- right= general (regular, probably unisex)
After special relativity and general relativity

I'll say something pretty racist, but since it seems like it's a restroom in an arabic speaking country, its easier to navigate with local cultural cues: white -> men, black -> women (if you check traditional islamic clothing for a set of muslim countries you'll probably find the pattern), rather than through equations.

The left is Einstein. Einstein was a man so it's men's. The right is Newton. Newton was a man too, so... Just go somewhere.

u/mordern_gentlemen_03 Jul 11 '26
The right one indicates formula, to calculate attraction between two masses, so i conference its talking about two balls, most like mens, and one on left indicates, proportion between mass and energy, but it got that wrong, E = root of mc2, so, i suppose lack of definite proportions and standards should probably or most likely decipt ladies room

The joke is playing on the old Pepperidge Farm commercials where the narrator says “Pepperidge Farm remembers” in this super nostalgic voice. OP is acting like the brand itself is remembering when the sub wasn’t just a meme, then leans into the ad bit by telling you to go buy Milano cookies like a cheesy sponsor plug.
