‘Shared Values’ = $195 Million

Posted on | September 29, 2019 | 1 Comment

In order to “remove arbitrary barriers in our community, and provide leadership that is reflective of our shared values,” the city of Portland, Oregon, will spend $195 million to remove urinals from restrooms in a municipally-owned office building. That’s right — if guys want to take a leak, they can pee in a stall in the new gender-neutral toilets. And to repeat, this will cost Portland taxpayers $195,000,000.

Do you suppose that women will be happy with this result? Because knowing what I know about men, women and toilets, I think not. Most women would prefer never to have to use a public restroom, but if they must do so, they want that restroom to be very clean. And this condition will be hard to obtain in gender-neutral public facilities with no urinals.

And did I mention they’re spending $195,000,000 to do this? Because you extrapolate that to account for every public toilet in America, and the cost of gender-neutral restrooms nationwide won’t be cheap. But it will enable government bureaucrats to lecture us about “our shared values.”
