      The GoP needed a cultural political weapon. So they picked the weakest minority, gays and trans people. To use as a distractions, while they rob the public and destroy the country.

      Most people don’t give a shit. Literally or figuratively.

      30% of America represents the majority. Out of that 30%, most are just going along with whatever because they’re dumb and watch media that validates their fears but if the story changed tomorrow they would let it go.

      The remaining sliver of this group are the true fucking nutcases who post this kind of stuff like in OP’s image because they really do believe it. Because they are dumber than shit, they don’t think with language, they react to feelings and let their autopilot fill in the blanks and appear functional in society.

      They are the absolute loudest and most energetic of every segment, and as such they get seen the most and influence the most people.

      This is a broken system and we need help.

      She’s okay with her bathroom being for men and women. What she really means is she doesn’t want trans people to use the same bathroom, and she would not invite trans people into her home. But don’t worry, no trans people want to be in her home, either.

    I love the unisex bathrooms at the Kansas City airport!

    Floor to ceiling stalls that I don’t have to dance around in to open and close the doors. Large open spaces to move between stalls and the sinks.

    Sure, the open stall count and lights aren’t reliable and the workmanship on the sinks and soap dispensers is pretty crummy, but the layout and convenience are fantastic!

      And it’s not like there are only unisex bathrooms there. It’s easy to choose another one if you prefer.

      But why bother. They’re more private than most other public bathrooms in the US. 🤷🏻‍♀️

      I fly through KC often and the gender neutral bathrooms are right past security, so I go in there nearly every time to at least wash my hands. There used to be a tiny jolt of surprise when I saw a man in there just because I’ve been so conditioned against seeing that for over 30 years, but that’s gone away because why tf do I care who sees me wash my hands?!

      I hadn’t considered how much space you can save, how much better you can plan for traffic, by not having 2 separate areas.

        Not to mention balancing the demand, more toilets instead of urinals, and more privacy.

        Not to mention that they are inclusive just by their design.

    Remember in starship troopers they had co-ed showers. If we can fight bugs while accepting gender neutral showers, wtf are we even doing today?

    I’m doing my part.

    Airports are infrastructure buildings. This is like seeing a billboard telling you not to hatecrime gay people and boycotting the highway.

    I have gender-neutral toilets in my house, so do all my friends

    In fact, every household I’ve been in had gender-neutral toilets

    They worked out fine

    I’ve had creepy guys stare at my dick in men-only toilets, I’ve never had a problem with it in gender-neutral

    It stands to reason that the problem is segregated toilets

    (actually, it’s men, but I’m sure even here there will be the “nOt AlL mEn!” types)

    I insist that we should figure out who can go in a grayhound bus restroom.

    Is it for men? For women? For trans or LGBTQA? Who?

    We need a “if you gotta go, you gotta go!” Law.

    Can we just get a bathroom design where they are a wall of stalls with a urinal and toilet inside and the hand washing station is on the outside without a door blocking the path? I hate bathroom doors after washing hands, especially when they don’t have a way to open the doors without touching the handle. Just put the sinks outside the bathroom.

      I have been to places with this layout.

      Private stalls. Sinks and hand washing open and visible to the hallway. Nobody feels threatrned or uncomfortable.

      No one needs urinals.

      Case in point: No one has one in their home.

        Ah but the toilet sitters do appreciate how much less urine is on the seats and around the bowl. I would have a urinal in my home if I was to remodel my bathroom. They are convenient.

          You can also just sit to pee, so that there’s less urine on the seats and around the bowl. No need for a urinal, which also has splash back.

          If you splash urine all over the place when peeing you’re sitting wrong.

        Home bathrooms are single-occupancy, plus most people don’t have the room. They’re definitely beneficial for higher volume places as add much more capacity for less space, and act as an “express lane” of sorts.

    Family bathrooms are also great. Once flew with my intellectually disabled sister who fucking fingerpainted a rest stop stall on a previous trip when my mother broke her arm chasing her to the bathroom and she was left to her own devices. This time I brought gloves and wet wipes and there was a little suite kinda thing. I didn’t need the child size toilet or the breastfeeding couch but the nice big accessible area around the adult toilet was good to have. She wasn’t constipated that time so I didn’t have to stop her from digging it out manually again but man; if I’d had to I totally could’ve! 10/10 would use a family bathroom again.

    The last Biden mandate was that every home would have a gender inclusive restroom, and every home has one by default. Lol
