What if I told you that as a heterosexual male I'm far more comfortable being naked in the company of women than men? It's a bullshit new-age argument.Quote:

The truly amazing thing is that South Park, of all things, came up with a great solution: A third restroom (locker room by extension.)

Maybe throw in a third room for "It's complicated" and track what happens.Quote:

New angle to the Monty Hall problem.
Seems that the patrons are on it, no? Are you going to have everyone fill out a questionnaire and show some kind of proof? Kinda easy to lie about how someone "identifies."Quote:

That said, Tipp is right (that South Park is right), the only real solution that works is 3 restrooms.
Transgendered people and other "freaks" are at the most risk of violence and are subject to constant abuse and isolation and not belonging.
They do not want to make a scene. Its people like you.. ohhh no a gay guy seen my penis so I should get to ogle in the womans locker room.
Have you considered that its not about ogling, its about taking a piss or shit or changing your clothes?
In the case of restrooms, a single room would be fine if all men could actually be trusted to piss in the correct place and not completely fuck up the toilets. But anyone that's been in the men's room at a truck stop can attest that no, men cannot be trusted with that simple task.
As for changing rooms, how hard is it to just turn towards the wall and quickly change? There's no fucking reason to prance around.
My understanding is that women are no better in this regard than men.Quote:

So we're literally talking about in a best case scenario .01% of the population. For a country the size of America that equates to 50000 people. Why not just pay for the damn operation and let the world get on with itself. For a one time billion dollar investment we can avoid ever having this conversation again.
Hey Iran does it. With thoroughly mixed results, but it's a bit more complicated thereQuote:

The bullshit of my wife needing to stop at every rest stop on the way to VT each weekend would stop as well. The trip takes 1/2 hr longer than it should.
Yeah, cause separate but equal works so well.Quote:

If incidents of rape/assault increase we can drastically increase punishment for those offenses.
Can't wait to share a good dump with a chick sometime. USA!
I think I can speak for the citizens of vt here. You should probably stay home instead.Quote:

All restrooms should be one person at a time anyway. Solves a bunch of the issues. And I don't really think anyone wants to be around when I am working out a growler. I know that I am much more comfortable when I have privacy and don't have to worry about the courtesy flush unless of course my own eyes are watering and my nostril hairs have been singed. As far as changing rooms? Same solution. Lockers in a common area. Everything else is single occupancy. That way one can share some common infrastructure.
I do think third "neutral" facilities is the way to go, but logistically it's not going to happen overnight.
Why would you need curtains for privacy? If the goal is to change the way we think of about nudity and gender equality then that only perpetuates the way we think.Quote:
