On the inside, a set of bathrooms at Emerson College looks like standard fare. On the outside, there are newfangled signs to ease the concerns of students who prefer not to signal that they are entering a men's or women's bathroom. The symbols are gender-neutral, a picture of a man and a woman. In response to students' pleas, Emerson has changed the signs that used to be aimed at a specific gender on 21 restrooms in campus buildings and one of the college's two dormitories. Emerson's changes, made in preparation for the upcoming school year, mirror moves by Tufts University and the University of Vermont, part of a small but growing number of universities modifying policies and facilities on behalf of transgender students. Several colleges have amended nondiscrimination policies to include gender identity, but student groups recently began pursuing more concrete changes, including gender-neutral housing, locker rooms, and bathrooms.

These people have become a self-parody. Really, they ARE funny.
I suspect it’s often difficult to distinguish the boys from the girls at that school anyway...
Does this include coed group showers?
At least you can now claim that you thought the person in the next stall was of the opposite sex!
Larry Craig was born too soon...
A few slobby men could make them change that in a heart beat. Seats left up, skid marks, dribble on the floor (or seat), porn mags left behind, etc....
In response to students' pleas...
Inmates, asylum, ect. Wonder if the majority if those "students" were men.
The airport at Jackson Hole, Wyo has one, too.
Kind of like the very excellent restaurant Napi’s in Provincetown, MA (try the duck!) -
It has two bathrooms — one door is marked “Either” and the other is marked “Or.”
I should add that each bathroom only accommodates one person at a time. (OK — maybe two, Freeper smart asses.)
But it’s a really great restaurant, though.
Even the butchest lesbo will cry for her own bathroom, the homosexuals and metrosexuals alike will simply pass out....
Have you ever seen the stuff in a women’s restroom?
What don’t you read the articles????
The school’s Little Building dormitory now has one gender-neutral bathroom, including a bathtub and shower, on every floor.
Well,parents or legal guardians of Emerson students, now you know where your second mortgage money is going!/s
Really, if this is the type of bathroom we have all over the place here, it is no big deal. The ones we have are single bathrooms, one person at a time, but they have the male/female sign on display. If, on the other hand, it is a large bathroom with stalls, urinals/troughs, condoms and tampons in machines....that won’t fly with me.
Assumed this was scrappleface....
Can’t say that I have.
I can imagine though.....
