This is an amazing article, friend.

The "everyone tries to remember the last time they ate corn" easter egg cracked me up.

I think using a bathroom as a group/family is so much safer than on your own. When we stop at a rest stop, we have no guarantees who has been inside and who is still inside. We split up based off assigned gender leaving us alone when we could have been safer together.

Loved the article.

Also, I listened to it via the substack audio player and it was awesome (minus mis pronouncing your first name)

I support the row of sinks with stalls along the walls (with actual doors with door knobs). Safer.

Thanks for writing this. Interesting history and maybe something to get those who are against such a thing thinking.

I agree that graphic seems misplaced. Anyone should be able to use the bathroom they want. Thank you for writing this. You’re always welcome in my bathroom.
