New York college moves to strip gender markings from all bathrooms
- daughart 11y agoWhen I was there, the University of Pennsylvania had coed dorms and coed shared bathrooms. It wasn't a big deal.
- Spivak 11y agoGood on them. It's not like this alone will cause wide-spread overnight change but it's certainly a step in the right direction. Any small thing that can be done to make men and women seem a little less 'alien' to one another should be heralded as progress. I expect there to be backlash from both sides because of discomfort and prejudices held by both sides, but if they keep with it it'll blow over eventually and maybe for next year's class it'll be the new normal.
- pink_dinner 11y agoI will be interested to see the results of this. Especially when we live in a world where even looking at someone the wrong way constitutes 'harassment'. Many more hetro men would love a chance to see more women and don't really care if they see their unmentionables. Women? Not so much. I'm all for equality, but this seems a bit extreme.
