Trans Awareness Week

I know that this board isn't for politics, but I thought the donors might want to know where their money is going to.

Not to open this can of worms

But isn't this a pretty good compromise on the issue? I mean, I understand there are folks who are uncomfortable with the thought of a trans person in their bathroom, but making a gender neutral bathroom available seems to alleviate this, doesn't it? I mean, if you or someone else don't want to take the chance that you'll be sharing facilities with a trans person, then options exist to ensure they won't have to.

Because the point is the erasure of male/female

It'd be one thing if there were a couple of gender neutral restrooms for the .1% of people who feel their gender doesn't match their bodies. But wouldn't that just imply that the male/female bathrooms were the "normal" ones, further marginalizing trans-people and entrenching cis-sexism?
Anyway, this is what I'd imagine they'd say about a "compromise." The point isn't really carving out a space for them to do what they like, it's changing everybody's view of gender.

Certainly, I understand that viewpoint

And I'm not advocating a world without gender norms (and certainly not a world which removes all limits based on any small percentage of people), but in this case, with this compromise, I see no real problem with it. It makes sense to me.

The problem is that they are making the only,or at least the most available, bathrooms gender neutral as opposed to making another bathroom.

that have been in place for years, never get used until Dad needs to take toddler daughter or Mom takes toddler son to go potty. That's all they are good for.

I don't think the people that "donate" need your help finding out where there money goes.

Not football related. If there is a board for this and you were aware that there was a board for this, then you must clearly be trolling.

They do. Tranny people only want to take pictures of your junk and stick their finger there. Do you not read the newspaper?

I guess I need more details to understand....
So people are going to be there to explain how to use this newly labeled bathroom? Is it that difficult to figure out? Will there be a set of rules to read before entering?
Are these single rooms or multi stalls? If I'm a female, how can I ensure my safety if males can come in? We will need better door locks for sure and stalls that go from the floor to the ceiling.
For those that "opt out," you now have to go find another bathroom or just schedule your bathroom time outside of the gender neutral time slot. I might be afraid to opt out for fear of being singled out. So much to think about...

Wouldn't It Be Easier to Remove Picture of Man and Woman

on Bathroom, Thus Removing "Gender", and Just Put a Picture of a Schlong and a Vag on The Door. Whichever Piece of Equipment You Have, Not What Gender You Identify With, is The Restroom You go in.
