Wisconsin: “Welcome mat out for gender-neutral restrooms”



The Journal-Sentinel reports:

The classic public restroom arrangement - men over here, women over there - is giving way in some Wisconsin department stores, college campuses and elsewhere to a combined, gender-neutral facility that is intended to accommodate anyone . . .

Julaine Appling, chief executive officer of the Wisconsin Family Council, said she was unaware so many places in Wisconsin had implemented the idea, including UW campuses that were the focus of a statewide effort by gay rights activists . . .

So far, the majority of gender-neutral restrooms in Wisconsin are single-stall facilities with locking doors.

The United Council of UW Students, a lobbying group, has promoted gender-neutral restrooms throughout the state and has succeeded in introducing the concept at UW-Madison, UW-Milwaukee and campuses in Waukesha, La Crosse, Green Bay, Eau Claire and elsewhere . . .

    Women take 2-3 times as long a men to urinate in the restroom. Men are thus being forced to wait for women to finish, which they wouldn’t have to do if there were separate restooms for each sex. But that, of course, would be too sensible for the “gender-neutral” crowd who want to fight nature.and penalize men for past-imagined sins against women.
