This is shocking. How can a POTUS be so unpopular? Oh wait, I've been coherent since 2017.[/quote]

And yet he was still elected.  And many of these people elected him and didn’t believe his policies would affect them.  And now we’re stuck for at least three more years with potential irreparable damage to our country.  All because he said he’d lower egg prices and stop gender neutral bathrooms.[/quote]

Can I just say— I love the gender neutral bathrooms in DC!  Places like the Folger Library, and restaurants with gender neutral, single us stalls. Yes please. Privacy!  Being pregnant and having 4 women waiting for the single use stall marked women, while then identical mens is open, but being afraid of harassment if you use it.  It’s great. [/quote]

That's progress. I've used the men's bathroom a couple of times when the line for the women was unconscionably long. Once at the FDR Memorial in DC, and once in an airport (can't remember which one). The men were in and out very quickly, no line, and the women's bathroom had an enormous line of women with children. Misogyny and societal lethargy in action. I just went into the men's. No one blinked. They had all seen the women's line when they went in.

Gender neutral bathrooms are quite common around the world. They had them when I lived and travelled in Northern Europe 40+ years ago. They are common in Japan. It's only here that we've made such a big f'ing deal about them. They make sense regardless of the trans issue.

Here are some countries that have passed legislation in support of gender-neutral bathrooms in certain settings.

Canada: Some provinces (like Ontario) require or strongly encourage gender-neutral bathrooms in public buildings.
United States: States like California, New York, and Washington D.C. require single-user restrooms to be labeled "All-Gender."
Argentina: Buenos Aires law mandates gender-neutral bathrooms in new public buildings.
Australia: Some states (like Victoria) require unisex bathrooms in new public schools.
New Zealand: Schools are encouraged (but not required) to include unisex bathrooms.

Gender neutral bathrooms are space efficient, alleviate the long lines of women patiently waiting while the men’s room is completely empty, and is easier for parents with kids of different ages/genders.

Smaller places can have a couple of individual bathrooms and larger places can have multiple stalls with full length doors and a large open area for sinks and mirrors.

I agree, people are being ridiculous about the bathrooms. No one seems to mind that everyone on United uses the same lavatories. Should we insist that airplanes, buses and trains have gendered lavatories? Should we make sure that port-a-potties be gendered? [/quote]

Next thing you know parents will be required to purchase little potties that align with their child's genitals for potty training. Girls can only use pink potties :roll:[/quote]
