BATHROOMS: No sanity relief
Sanity has taken a holiday. First I want to point out that bathrooms for men vs. women is meeting its death due to an estimated .07 percent of the population, forget the other 99.03 percent. This is where America is today. Bathrooms will be forced into being single person use (a la Kroc swim changing area) because, well, businesses will be forced to do it. This will be a big expense for Mom & Pop and while they might be able to afford the renovation, what used to be a men’s room with one or two urinals and a stall will become one unisex bathroom and the women’s went from two or three to one unisex. All to appease .07 percent because of their “feelings.”
Secondly, if I see a man in the bathroom or (Kroc again, main shower/bath by the pool door) I am immediately leaving. No, I’m not interviewing them, “Are you feeling transgendered or are you just a pervert?” I am leaving.
I foresee a father, at a rest stop, sees his 14-year-old daughter going into the bathroom then seeing a male enter said restroom follow him in and a confrontation that won’t end well, for either party. Dad gets sued.
Again, it’s just common sense. I swear I don’t have anything against people who are the Bruce Jenners of the world, but the other 99.03 percent of people have rights too. Bruce needed to stay out of the ladies room until Caitlyn was real. I have rights too.
