Why are we not all mature enough to use ONE washroom... Maybe then Wal-Mart would be able to keep up with cleaning it, if there were only one.  Boy, no joke - is every Wal-mart bathroom disgusting or just ALL the ones here in Kansas? 
Our Wally World has 2 sets of bathrooms and there is one in the back of the store that very few people use and it's always clean. When you have bladder issues, you do what you have to do. I will say...the restrooms here in Texas are usually disgusting and I would rather go behind a bush to pee then use any of them.  |

| This was never a "real" issue for the Obama administration, it was a smokescreen for Iranian deal and other things they didn't want American people to know.
On that note however, I never understood why people ever thought public restrooms were a safe haven anyway no matter how they are marked. |

| The whole issue is nuts!!! the medical community defines transgender as a mental disorder with the only known cure is reassignment surgery which many insurance company's recognize. Really the only cure? No where in the Constitution does it give the federal government the right to intervene in who uses which bath room period. States may choose to thru the health codes if and only if they pass codes that say that. How they would do that is beyond me because your DNA does not change because some Doctor adds our subtracts some body parts. So are we to change all the signs to Women/Surgically altered and Men/Surgically altered? As I said the issue is nuts!!! My solution get rid of all public bath rooms and just have a bunch of port a potty's in the parking lot than everyone can have there own personal toilet problem solved. Ya I know people will ***** about that too. But it would be far cheaper than the billions of dollars needed to accommodate less than 1% of the population. Just keep in mind that the term transgender was first used in 1949 to define a mental disorder and the supposed man made cure in the 1960's until than there was no such thing. JUST NUTS!!!!

Never thought a public bathroom as a safe haven, lol in my owm home yes. Now if the restroom is for all to use {men & women} thats ok with me IF its a single restroom for one person at a time to use and you can lock the door so nobody can just walk in. Those dont bother me at all I perfer those over a restroom that has multiple stalls.  |

Thats just so creepy that someone would do that, I know it happens here too. Once my granddaughter was ahead of me going into a restroom at Wal-Mart and a man was going into the mens when he saw her he turned like he was going to follow her into the womens then he saw me coming and turned back to the mens, I watched him and as soon as he thought I was in the restroom he turned around and walked very fast away from the restrooms and this was the restrooms in back of Wal-Mart, Sterling did her thing and we got the heck outa there and I went and reported it to the manager, but since the restrooms were so far in the back it took me awhile to get to the front of the store so I could report this mess. |

I'm not pointing the finger at anyone in particular but I'm incredibly observant and I'm ALWAYS amazed at the little kids in the bathroom by themselves locally. The outrage on this particular subject is just ridiculous and I maintain that it served as a distraction for the Obama administration. Now it's back in the spotlight bc Trump gave power back to states via EO. The liberal lunatics are freaking and need yet ANOTHER social issue to be up in arms about. Transgender people have been using bathroom of choice for a long time this only opens the "possibility" of someone using it for twisted perversion. The "possibility" already exists based on most set ups of public restrooms so I don't let that sway me. Simple answer, instead of male/female restrooms make individu toilet closets/dressing rooms fully enclosed and lockable. |

While I have seen reports of men taking pictures of women in a rest room or dressing room, what I have not seen are reports of a transgender male doing this or attacking women in restrooms. |

Location: Kansas | I worked years ago at a Mental Health Clinic. Francis/Frances looked just exactly as much like a woman as Klinger on MASH. Tall, angular, five o'clock shadow, wig, mini-skirt, pirate-style blouses and high heels. He always used the ladies restroom. Since it was beside the reception desk we were all alerted if he/she was in there.

mmmm, fogive my ignorance but don't we already have that in most places??? Called the family restroom????? Â
Family restrooms are a little different. One large restroom with a toilet and urinal and change station. This is for people with multiple children and maybe a large stroller. Just makes it easy for parents to change kids, wash their hands, get them using the toilet without being disruptive to others.
In our local Target store, seems like the family restrooms are for the employees to hang out in while I wait outside with a toddler in the shopping cart. Every. Stinkin. Time. |

Location: Ky | This whole what bathroom to use thing is just stupid. If you are male you go to the men's restroom. If you are female you go to the women's restroom.
Doesn't matter what the hell you "identify" as. You are either male or female and you use the appropriate restroom. |
