# M’sians Left Scratching Their Heads Over Toilet Sign Featuring A Cloud And Triangle

##### For most toilets, there would often be a tiny symbol depicting which one is for female or male use clearly.

However, an ice-cream shop believed to be located in Kota Kemuning, Selangor, is causing much confusion among netizens after a photo showing its toilet signs went viral on social media.

## Toilet sign featuring a cloud and triangle?

In a [photo](https://twitter.com/danieleskay/status/1743501427673333808) shared by an X user named @danieleskay, it showed two bathroom doors which had an unconventional sign on it, unlike the ones that most are accustomed to.

**On the left, the sign had a cloud symbol on top of an isosceles triangle while on the right, the cloud symbol was on top of an inverted isosceles triangle.**

Aside from the sign, even the door handles were different too, where one had a knob while the other had a lever.

The OP couldn't help but to laugh over the peculiar signage, where he wrote in the caption: **'Ah yes, the two genders: ice cream and cloud on a hill.'**

## 'Which is which?'

Naturally, the toilet sign sent netizens spinning as they struggled to decipher which symbol was for which gender.

***'Life's already full of problems and now we have to figure out which side to go into before we pee.'***

***'Shii my overthinking will have me standing there for 30 minutes just to decide which door should I open.'***

A netizen joked that the men's toilet is the one on the left as "women are always right". **ba tum tss**

#### Still as confused as them? Here's the answer to the riddle:

Like the circles and triangles often used to depict the human head and body, the cloud and triangle symbol are meant to mimic those.

As such, the** one with the cloud symbol on top of an isosceles triangle** is for women, while **the cloud symbol was on top of an inverted isosceles triangle** is for men.
