Liberate bathrooms I say!
I use different ones everyday.
I try all the cans –
I’m fluid – I’m trans!
I’m straight, male – I’m female and gay!
Target Toilets!

Liberate bathrooms I say!

I watched this video and laughed so hard. I can’t imagine how emasculated the average man would feel if he actually used women’s bathrooms on a regular basis. Although a couple years ago, my sister and I stopped at a McDonalds in North Carolina and went into the ladies room. There were two stalls, and one was in use. My sister went into empty one, and I waited for the other. All of a sudden, this big, burly man comes out of that stall. I looked at him and my mouth dropped open. I finally said, “Oh, am I in the wrong one?” He didn’t say anything. I then opened the door and looked at the sign on it — which said “Ladies” — then I said, “No, I’m in the right one.” He still didn’t say a word but just walked out. I guess he was getting a head start on the politically correct potty practices.
I like the poem. It throws light on just how thoroughly confused the average public is becoming — and how much more confused they will be after a year of living with this new law. (Although, frankly, I think we can count on one hand the number of people who will actually take advantage of it in most places.) And, of course, in so much of Europe, public restrooms seem to be unisex in so many places that they will hardly notice.
