Woman, outraged that her son's school is converting all washrooms to non-gender specific, uses a washroom that hasn't cared about gender in years

This morning I overheard a woman sitting behind me on the train complaining loudly about a decision her son's school has made allowing for students of any gender to use any washroom. She didn't feel girls should be in a boy's washroom where "they might see penises dangling out", especially young kids. Plus, "have you seen a man's washroom?! They are disgusting. Why would a girl even want to go in there?"

Midway through the conversation she got up and disappeared into the washroom of the train.

I'm sorry, what was she arguing about?

    FFS! They're not forcing girls to use the boys' washroom. Nor are they forcing boys to use the girls' washroom.

    This woman was obviously ironic impaired.

    I feel like my headline needs a comma in there somewhere. Any one?

    I take it GOTransit's restrooms are of the "unisex" variety.

    Quite disingenuous, as only one person at a time uses go train loos.

    I don't have any problem with unisex bathrooms that consist of a single toilet and washbasin and a lock on the door.

    Washrooms that are meant to be used by two or more people at the same time, however, are just not appropriate for unisex use. Especially in this hysterically sensitive day and age. I don't want to risk an accusation of some offense or other just because I happened to be in a washroom at the same time a crazy woman (or even worse, girl) is.
