Even the Amish would have trouble with some of the things they buy. There are actually over 400 companies on the list of major companies generated by the Human Rights Campaign as cool.

The Amish shop at Walmart. Also at Thrift Stores and most of those around here employ many people in different places on the gender identity spectrum.

In this part of PA, it depends on where they fall on the Amish spectrum. The more conservative orders, and the River Brethren, won't patronize any business that works on Sunday. That's why they shun the electric and telephone companies.

That's in Austin, I think.

So the goal is a government just small enough to fit in the ladies room? Watching this culture conflict would be hilarious if it was a performance parody.

Well in fairness, it's a bigger space than a vagina, which the conservatives also want government to fit into.

If that was happening in the UK I'd have to stop using public bathrooms. It's embarrassing enough being called 'sir' by a shop assistant - never mind running the fucking gauntlet anytime you go to the loo.

It's amazing that people have given themselves permission to police this to fill the vacuum of lack of government oversight. Again read "A Handmaids Tale." On the upside Cruz is out but the nuttiness is deeper into the culture than just election cycle nonsense.

Sometimes I need to poop. I'd like there to be a bathroom any damn bathroom when I need one.

Today the US justice dept notified NC that their new law violates the seventh and ninth sections of the Civil rights law.

They've given NC until Friday to fix it

So where does Ferd Sheed fit into all this?

BigV · 05-05-2016, 06:35 PM

Any individual stall with a door that closes.

Just take the signs off the bathrooms - problem solved.

tw · 05-06-2016, 07:45 PM

Sign, sign, everywhere a sign. Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind. Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?

Or simply replace it with one that reads "Family Room".

Please try to continue ignoring me and don't respond to any posts of mine.
It makes you far more palatable.
