... is there something I should know?

[The Builder]

I once noticed, in an American Service Station, there was a sign on the door to the lavatories saying .......... "Multi-Gender"

Are there some more I should know about?

[The Builder]

Certainly not in Oldham, Doc ;o)

[smudge]

Nothing strange about that. It probably means that there is only one toilet available, which can be used by either males or females - not at the same time of course! ;o}

[Berkshirelad]

It sounds like US political correctness, since they recognise three genders.

Male, Female and Trans

[mike11111]

Multi implies more than two, but as you say this was in America.

[smudge]

Yep - but coming our way soon, no doubt! ;o\

[what..the?]

If we were to beleive the movies to be real life anyone would think toliets in US service stations are only place murderers and serial killers hit maybe they get confused by the signs too??

[The Builder]

Yep, we need new terms .......... maybe "Sexless", or even "Gender Transparent" lol

[what..the?]

or...was the station down the road from a sex change clinic?? It would be like peeing next to mr or mrs potato head with bodily oddments stuck on here there and everywhere..otherwise know as ....optional extras

[McMouse]

I've often wondered why they lock US service station bathrooms? Are they afraid someone will clean them?

[Count-A-Strong]

Multi Gender - just a US way of saying Uni Sex.

[The Builder]

lol Whatters .................. loads of bodily oddments on AB ;o)

[Booldawg]

In Alabama it means men and democrats.

[whiskeryron]

whenever i've used the ''bathroom'' in the US as you will be aware i've never seen a bathtub so why oh why do our American friends call it The Bathroom ( perhaps Clanad will answer this) also please note that if the term ''Multi-Gender'' becomes prevalent here you will all have to learn to pronounce it ''Mul-tie'' not ''Mul-tee'' Ron. LOL. Ô¿Ô

[The Builder]

lol Ron
Boolds ........... someone once said there are three kinds of people: men, women, and Presbyterians ..............

[The Builder]

I've also heard it said that, if Alabama went any further to the Right ............. it would be an island in the Atlantic ......

[jackthehat]

Comparably in UK we have uni-sex toilets - which actually mean 'one' sex, not both.
'Bi-sex' toilets could have unfortunate connotations, as could an American 'multi-sex' loo...........it's a di-lemma ;o)

[smudge]

Yeah, that's what I said Count-A-Strong. ;o}

[ummmm]

There's a new restaurant here that has uni-sex toilets. I won't be using it again.....I got wee on my trousers :-((

[ethandron]

many places sur le continent only have one loo for everyone, not a problem.
