iMarc just remodeled our bathrooms. New toilets, new sinks, wainscoting, lights – we went all out. One feature we added was a coat hanger on the door to hang your coat, bag, or purse while you do your thing. In our purple bathroom the coat hanger seems to stick out about 10 inches.

In general, web programmers/developers bump their heads, while designers and marketing folks don't. In the results below, highlighted names are developers.

I've bumped my head twice in the 10 or so times I've used that bathroom.
Solution: leave the door open.
"I have used the bathroom coathanger for my coat, purse, or bag" It's useful, especially when getting changed for iMarc photo shoots.
Also, wasn't the purple bathroom supposed to be the Women's - why is it used most often here?
also in hopes of seeing naughty bits.
sadly, it's a one-person bathroom.
bother.
Although I have been repeatedly struck on the forehead by the hanger, it's certainly worth it it if I have a place to hang my purse.
Winner.
That's one way of ensuring that men will never use that bathroom. Put feminine hygene products in place, unless you're Robert apparently. Naughty Bits? In a one-person bathroom, that's hard to do.
"We found fecal bacteria on about 30 percent of the bottom of women's purses. So you may be moving bacteria from the bottom of the restroom floor to maybe the kitchen sink area when you're going to make lunch," said Gerba.
Yuk.
Stop pooping in your purses = problem solved.
