No condescension meant. Just saying you're chasing windmills. There's no sexism in the objectionable sense. Unless you're also of the opinion that single-sex toilets should be abolished because they're discriminatory. In which case you're a narrow and intolerant bigot to boot. (But that's just my opinion.)
"Nobody will ever win the battle of the sexes. There's too much fraternizing with the enemyy."
-- Henry Kissinge
Well, funny thing. Did you know there's actually a big debate on about gendered public toilets and how they cater for alternative sexualities?
It's not a debate I'm involved in, but it's definitely thought-provoking.
My personal feeling on toilets is that it's discriminatory that women get private cubicles while men are lined up like cattle to piss into urinals, but hey. Better get my big boy panties on, because discrimination is apparently cute and noble.
Your quote, Arthur, like your views on this subject, is misplaced. This is not about the battle of the sexes, but rather the battle for freedom from discrination.
The last time I checked, that was one principle everybody agreed is great in South Africa's constitution.
Maybe the guys here would have different views if the sign read 'Blacks!!! Blacks!!! Blacks!!! No whites allowed!'
Who'd have thought it's this difficult for people to recognise discrimination, even when it's aimed against them.
