Can you tell when you are in a hotel room, restroom, motel etc. with a
mirror whether it is in fact a mirror or 2-way glass?




Here's how:
I thought it was quite interesting! And I know in about 30 seconds you're
going do what I did and find the nearest mirror... Do you know how to
determine if a mirror is 2-way or not? This is not to scare you, but to
make you aware. A policewoman who travels all over the U.S. and gives
seminars and techniques for businesswomen passed this on. When we visit
toilets, bathrooms, hotel rooms, changing rooms, etc., how many of you know
for sure that the seemingly ordinary mirror hanging on the wall is a real
mirror, or actually a 2-way mirror (i.e., they can see you, but you can't
see them)? There have been many cases of people installing 2-way mirrors in
female changing rooms. It is very difficult to positively identify the
surface by just looking at it.
So, how do we determine with any amount of certainty what type of mirror we
are looking at? Just conduct this simple

Test: Place the tip of your fingernail against the reflective surface and
if there is a GAP between your fingernail and the image of the nail, then it
is a GENUINE mirror.



However, if your fingernail DIRECTLY TOUCHES the image of your nail, then
BEWARE, FOR IT IS A 2-WAY MIRROR!


"No Space, Leave the Place" So remember, every time you see a Mirror, do
the "fingernail test." It doesn't cost you anything.

Remember: "No Space, Leave the Place"

Ladies: Share this with your girlfriends, sisters, daughters, etc.
Men: Share this with your wives, daughters, daughters-in-law, mothers,
girlfriends and friends.
