This’ll give the right something to scream about for a day or two.

Have at it kids.

There are many facilities such as hospitals which have gender neutral bathrooms because they are handicapped accessible. Doesn’t the right have a problem with this?

Have they started bitching about Benghazi yet?

Oh, they’ll screech themselves hoarse over this one. And the White House has to be loving it. Reminds me of the sequence in Office Space where Peter’s going around doing whatever he damn well pleases while “Damn It Feels Good to Be a Gangsta” plays in the background.

“…thereby keeping in line with its own executive order prohibiting discrimination against LGBT individuals.”

Even the Grand Panderer Mitt Romney could not have thought this one up. Bringing politically correct to the toilet seat.

We also have “Family” bathrooms in various places, like malls and restaurants.

I see. So presumably now I – a transsexual woman – should no longer use the ladies’ room, but must go off to a separate-but-equal washroom specially provided for those of us who are just too icky to be seen among polite folks? And this is supposed to be a blow for LGBT equality? Feh.
Maybe we’ll be getting LGBT drinking fountains next?

I swear to god they sit around thinking up way to drive the righties fucking nuts…and I love it. They must’ve had some serious giggles when someone came up with this idea.

It seems this is provided as an additional option.

Count me out. One gender, who shall remain nameless…are not neat in the bathroom.

I’m not following your complaint with the WH’s idea to provide gender neutral bathroom as separate-but-equal. Hell, if anything, its free for any and all to use…So no separation at all as far as I can tell. Help me out here…you lost me.

And of course every private home since forever. Hasn’t made society crumble just yet, but maybe I’m missing something.

Cue Barry White.

Seriously…I’m so tired of makeup all over the sink and tissues being used up like there are infinite trees in the universe…

Rightwing nutjobs won’t be happy until the country starts designating lavatories specifically for Democrats and Republicans, with their associated symbols hanging on the fucking doors.

Shit…I shouldn’t give them ideas.
10 to 1, ALEC probably already has something in the works along those lines.

Privacy in the bathroom, but not in the bedroom.

Hmmmm.

The Obama administration on Wednesday announced that it will be installing a gender-neutral bathroom, thereby keeping in line with its own executive order prohibiting discrimination against LGBT individuals.

Not exactly cutting edge there, Mr. President. I’ve lived in my home since 1993, and I have four gender-neutral bathrooms.
