I just thought it was over-complicating things when it would have been easier just to say 'restroom' and let everybody use it! <br /><br />And it would have been lovely to see you in NYC as well as Toronto, but I got to see your big brother, Jeff while I was there -- and the lovely Barbara, of course!Zoë Sharphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14065427744062846167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1990338437877873686.post-52318724598573498242017-11-05T14:07:41.473-05:002017-11-05T14:07:41.473-05:00Thank you for these lovely pictures of my hometown...Thank you for these lovely pictures of my hometown, Zoe. I only wish I had been able to see some of them with you. :((<br /><br />Regarding those signs for the loo, they may have been part of the NYC protest against a political hooha here in the States several months back. To make things hard for transgender youth, some schools in the more conservative places in the country were forcing transgender students to use the bathroom for their sex-identity at birth. President Obama weighed in on the side of youth. Those states started passing laws against transgender bathrooms. Public places in NYC put up signs showing their solidarity with the trans young people. We New Yorkers are always showing our political stripes, even on our way to the loo.
