Washrooms
Gender friendly washrooms.The latest from our liberal minded BC politicians.
They have now passed a law. Schools must have gender friendly washrooms.
In other words.
If a boy or girl feels they actually belong to the other sex. They are able to use that facility.
The mind boggles.
In my day.
Just looking into the girls playground was good for six of the best.
Never thought I would say this.
Bring back the nuns.

You cannot say a Man is an Alcoholic,
He is a person in his own right with an unhealthy liking for alcohol. To say he is an Alcoholic is to give him a label and that is wrong, he is a person with a craving for alcohol.
.
You cannot say He is an Asthmatic, because that is a label for him, people must not be labelled.
He is A person who has a breathing disorder.
and it goes on with every disorder. A person must Not be labelled by his illness. He is a person in his own right.
This paper costs thousands and is being delivered to every Medical facility through out the country.

Re: Washrooms
Unfortunately the PC and the Health & Safety Brigade rule the day . I wonder where will it end , I am sure no local British person would be traumatised by being a Jock , Geordie . makem , sand dancer , scousers , taffy , janner or a cockney , I believe this drivel originated in the US where you have Irish Americans , African Americans , Native Americans , why can't they just be happy being Americans .The same applies to genders and sexual preferences , I am sure if a six year old decides they really should wear a dress despite having a willy , we will traumatise them by making them wear trousers . We. Promote the acceptance of these differences , look at the gender and racial mixes amongst TV presenters , and Labour Politicians , we. Positive discriminate , why oh why cannot we all just be equal . If little Johnny hates his male parts , why can't we just councell him , why do we have to accommodate the whim of a child . This is compensation for how poorly the racial and sexual minorities have been treated in the past , let's get over it , and stop apologising for our forebears , just treat every one the same . And if little Johnny wants a skirt he can , because of his anatomical structure , do as many a UCL 1st class winger did , and hitch up his skirt and use the urinal

Re: Washrooms
Some local councils here are doing the same Den, so we now know who to blame for it.
But what will happen when a 'boy' goes to the girls toilet and a parent complains? This has not been well considered yet and one of the leaders in this idea was interviewd on radio. To say she was a total nutter is an understatement, she could see no wrong in a boy doing thta, but when asked what would occur if a girl went to the boys toilet she replied, 'oh that would never happen'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Things have never been the same since they got rid of the bicycle sheds.


Happy daze John in Oz.

Re: Washrooms
#1, If the PC brigade win, then just add a few extra separate loos and label them accordingly, much like the disabled ones.

Re: Washrooms
When I was a Lad at Senior School they would not allow us to go into the Girls showers.
Now it seems they are pushing it.
How many red blooded lads will say they are of an alternative gender just to get a chance of a quick flash.?
