Whose Loos?
By Dawn Ivory

View our poll archive
The University of British Columbia has announced plans to augment the campus's multi-stalled men's and women's toilets with special, individual bathrooms to cater to transgendered folk (who may be uncomfortable having to pick a "W" or "M" crapper) and to Muslim students who have trouble performing religiously-mandated foot-washing ablutions in standard sinks. The new facility will feature a silhouette of a toilet in place of a gender indicator.

Dawn thinks it wonderful that the school is accommodating students' needs and doubly appreciates that the religiously devout and the sexually avant-garde are being served together. But such special loos invite the question: why not bathrooms designed for sex? With all the current brouhaha over t-room sex, would it not make sense for universities (and malls, public buildings, sports stadia, etc.) to offer special bathrooms wherein cruising was explicitly allowed? That way, no uptight toilet-goers could complain of unexpected attention (for they could use the "voiding-only" facilities); plus, sensible amenities such as handicap pull-bars in all stalls (handy for sexual acrobatics), "honeymoon" glory holes (wherein sliding covers on both sides of the hole must be opened, insuring only mutually desired attention), and condom and lube dispensers could be on hand.

What about it, UBC?
