I just discovered that my building at school has four gender-neutral single-stall bathrooms on the upper floors, in the tower.

All I have to do is walk down a hallway and go up two floors to get to one.

Really? Cool!!! I can only think of one place near me with gender neutral toilets.

Our LGBT center on campus has a list of all of the single-stall toilets and all of the unisex bathrooms. How cool is that? There are very few gender-neutral bathrooms--only two buildings are well supplied. With the exception of the new building, I'm in the best building on campus!!!

I wish everyone were so lucky.

There are often such bathrooms in new buildings, owing more to the ADA Act then anysort of ->-bleeped-<- awareness, but take what you can get.

Even a port-a-potty, har.

Very cool! It's not often you get a win (you can use the bathroom without being harassed) - win (woman don't need to worry about transgendered folk using their bathroom). Though there's probably a longer conversation about whether woman should be worried.
