[font style="font-family:'Georgia','Baskerville Old Face','Helvetica',fantasy;" size=4 color=#009999]I think this is actually the best solution.

Make all restrooms gender neutral but beef up privacy. If every stall is built up to the point that they are their own private rooms then there is no need for segregation in the first place and EVERYONE of EVERY sex and EVERY gender identity is protected.

But that would cost money so we all know conservatives would oppose that. However, it would be a great to see conservatives contort themselves into knots claiming they care about privacy and protection of women but not enough to have to spend one dime on it...[/font]
