Why a Virginia Middle School Is Removing Urinals from the Boys’ Bathrooms
Townhall.com ^ | August 23, 2021 | Michael Brown

It’s bad enough that a middle school in Loudon County, VA, has decided to remove “male” and “female” signs from its bathrooms.

But in an even more extreme nod to social insanity, this same school is removing the urinals from the boys’ bathrooms. Why? It’s because a number of biological females, who identify as males, are offended by the presence of urinals.

So, rather than point out to these females that they are not really males (otherwise, they’d have no problems with urinals), the school turns the world upside down to accommodate them.

This is the direct result of school policy 8040, which states, “LCPS staff shall allow gender-expansive or transgender students to use their chosen name and gender pronouns that reflect their gender identity without any substantiating evidence, regardless of the name and gender recorded in the student’s permanent educational record.”

So, no substantiating evidence is needed, and, the policy states, all teachers must comply with the students wishes.

In other words, impressionable students, including young children who haven’t the foggiest idea about sexual and gender realities, can simply declare their new identity, and the school must change their records accordingly. And woe be to the teacher or administrator who dares question this cultural madness.

Appropriately enough, the policy is titled, “RIGHTS OF TRANSGENDER AND GENDER-EXPANSIVE STUDENTS.” Gender-expansive? What does that even mean? Welcome to the new reality.

Of course, the problem with this new reality is that it has nothing to do with reality at all.

A biological boy who calls himself a girl is still a boy, and vice versa, no matter how much compassion we want to show them in the midst of their gender confusion.

That’s why that girl cannot use a urinal: because she is not a boy. And saying this is neither hateful nor bigoted. It’s simply telling the truth.

But alas, we live in an age when truth has been displaced by perception, resulting in men’s bathrooms on college campuses having tampons on hand, because “men can menstruate.”

And when “breastfeeding” is replaced by “chestfeeding,” lest “men” breastfeeding their children feel offended.

And when you read stories stating, “When Jesse Ballard found out he was pregnant, he was shocked yet excited.” (Jesse, the “husband,” is the biological female, impregnated by his “wife,” who is the biological female.)

And this is something we are supposed to celebrate. In reality, for all involved, it is heartbreaking. Surely, God has a better way.

Unfortunately, these decisions to do not only affect the individuals making choices for themselves. Instead, they affect others living or working or going to school with them.

As David Kubal pointed out in his article about the urinals being removed from a school in his district, the perceived needs of roughly 0.3 percent of the population, now turn the world upside down for the other 99.7 percent.

Accordingly, he writes, because of this tiny percentage of people in Loudoun County:

I doubt it’s actually from the children. This kind of stuff comes from adult.

When I was a zookeeper, we not only cleaned up after elephant, bears, etc. but we also had to tend to the human restrooms. The men’s room was OK, but there was a pool over who had to clean the women’s restroom. It was more disgusting than any of the animal’s areas. Except for anteaters. You don’t plan to eat lunch on the day you have to clean up after anteaters.

The biological males who identify as girls should object to tampon dispensers and other feminine hygiene products in “their” bathrooms.

I agree. The biological girls need to be more considerate of the pretend girls now flooding their bathrooms. Seeing these tampon dispensers on the walls will serve to painfully remind these soy boys that they really aren't girls after and thus can never menstruate like the real girls can. This will likely reduce them to tears and traumatize them.

We must learn to be more sensitive! Considerate biological girls should conceal their feminine hygiene products in their purses and only bring them out in the privacy of a stall. Also, to boost the self-esteem of the soy boys, the biological girls should occasionally pat the stomachs of them and playfully ask them if they are pregnant. This comment will surely send them to the moon and will make their day. They will feel SO good about themselves. Trust me on this.

Transwomen (biological males) will soon demand urinals. Eventually all girls’ bathrooms will have urinals and boys’ rooms will have none.

Imagine that. The whole bathroom conversion process doesn’t cost the taxpayers a dime. Where do I sign up for free plumbing services?

Those who are upset about it should be made to pay for the change if they so desire.

The next step is to require the boys to sit down to pee.

Beat me too it. This was a big thing a few years ago, especially in Europe. After the first few complaints of girls getting sticky buns, the boys will be indoctrinated into the “proper” way to go pee— sitting down.

Little Willy - The Sweet (1972)

The Sweet was definitely a band ahead of its time.

They were showing the future generation of boys how to dress for the girl's room.

Urinals, from a plumbers perspective:

Urinals SUCK! They are a BAD idea.

They aren’t sanitary. They work poorly. There is no need for them.

Nobody flushes urinals. The concentration of undiluted urine rots pipes. (cast iron, galvanized, and copper.)

The flushing mechanism for urinals (flush valves, flushometers) are usually not adjusted properly or stick open (the few times that they are actually flushed).

The very old and rare (expensive) built in wall/floor urinals were better, but had their own problems. You might find a drunk passed out and laying in one.

The only good urinals were floor mounted FEMALE urinals. VERY rare. A female could lift her skirt/dress and pee standing straight up.

Promote the return of floor mounted FEMALE urinals. This would promote the wearing of skirts and dresses and discourage the wearing of panties.

That is for “hand” washing. It is not a urinal.
