So maybe we should start teaching our children there is nothing wrong with the human body and nakedness is not a sin ,
The stars must have aligned in some odd way if we're agreeing, lol!:p
Can you see boys showering with girls who call themselves boys but have female anatomy or girls showering with boys who call themselves girls but still have male anatomy?
In all reality, the transgender student probably isn't going to shower where everyone can see them, they are going to have a load of anxiety trying to hide, and it's not easy for them. You're worried about people who have to consciously make this an issue, and ignoring those who get stressed because people make it into an issue. You're also ignoring the reality that many places do not have such sex-segregation, and they are doing just fine.

We finally get rid of separate facilities for different races and now we're quibbling about different sexes.
Are we genetically programmed to find ways of segregating ourselves into "like" and "not-like," or what?

Segregated toilets are going to seem awfully silly a hundred years from now...:rolleyes:

Mine comes out smelling like roses-- dead ones that crawled up my butt and died, but roses nevertheless.
Then you know what I'm talking about then. As long as there is no judgments on sounds and smells, I'm perfectly fine with unisex bathrooms.

Penises are. By mere existence. Doesn't appear to matter whom they are attached to. Penises have an ability to jump out of pants, regardless of their owner's wishes, and randomly attack unsuspecting peeing women in neighboring stalls.

Thanks. Can I ask if you'll repeat that under oath?

That sort of reminds me of what my wife says: men "fart", women "toot". Sorry, but the smell and sounds ain't much different between the sexes.

I've been to new shopping malls in Quebec that have done just that.

However, I do understand the cultural hangups on this issue here in the States and in other locations worldwide, and I do indeed feel we need to take that into consideration as well. Then maybe we here can move to the step you recommend above. IOW, an evolution versus a revolution.

It is an interesting process trying to move Americans into anything, because anytime we do, a large number of people feel like the government is forcing something.

We truly are one of the most stubborn countries in the world. Perhaps it has something to do with us being so young in comparison to most others. We're like a stubborn teen that won't listen to their elders because we think we already know everything.
