The few, the proud

August 28, 2007

I love women, though some drive me crazy. I admire men, though some are jerks. I am not and never have been gender neutral, which probably means I would  be a bad fit in Vermont:

The University of Vermont’s big new student center doesn’t just have women’s bathrooms and men’s bathrooms.

It also has gender-neutral bathrooms, a feature added to accommodate transgendered people, as well as those with some disabilities. The four single bathrooms in the new Dudley H. Davis Center — each with a toilet, sink, shower and lockable door — cost about $2,500 a piece to build. Their wall signs identify each as “gender neutral restroom.”

“It’s about inclusivity and accessibility and the importance of meeting all people’s needs, not just a few,” said Annie Stevens, assistant vice president for student and campus life.

Not just a few? Everybody but the tiniest percent of 1 percent is “a few’? I must need a remedial math class.

    Not remedial math…just “new” math.

    Just another “rock solid” reason to honor the wishes of Vermont’s seccession movement. Let them secede…..we won’t miis ya’ a bit.
