Denton (WBAP News) - The University of North Texas has announced that it will soon be offering something unique to students, faculty and visitors, unisex bathrooms.
The restrooms will be placed in the lobbies of nearly all of its dormitories, as well as in the dining rooms.
The facilities will be very similar to the so-called family bathrooms currently being used in Metroplex movie theaters and shopping malls.
The president of the Residence Hall Association says the private, single-stall unisex restrooms are designed to help transgender students feel more at ease on the Denton campus. He believes the move will help improve the sense of community at the school.

Didn’t see this posted yet.
They cannot stop appeasing...
They only have one stall, so sounds okay to me, though not the reason.
As a UNT grad, I am sad.
Hey, I’m all about the one-holers...although catering to the trannies is an odd rationale.
Great. Now guys get to stand in line along with wimmin waiting for the chick to get out of the derned stall.
I feel sorry for the young women.
Being a man with two sons, I can admit that I understand why women do not want to follow us after using the facilities.
Also, remember to wipe the seat!
...and by one-holers I mean bathrooms with only one toilet...guess I should clarify that, haha...
I have no problem with places wanting to put in unisex bathrooms as a matter of convenience and way to attract customers. What I Loathe and Hate is when some group or lawyer or person coerces and demands that an existing facility be modified to add them.
It is the whole “Government Intrusion angle” that I am against, not the bathrooms themselves.
So, having a single room, with a single toilet and sink, that is available to the general public is now news worthy? The lobbies of a great many law offices, major corporations and small bussinesses alike are decades ahead of the University of North Texas.
This is hardly new; and claiming it is for ‘transgendered’ freaks is simply a ploy to advertize your new potty. What’s next, cafeterias providing both left handed, and right handed coffee mugs?
“improve the sense of community”
by slapping around the sensibilites of the majority
Craptacular!
“that giant flushing sound you hear........”
College kids, booze and unisex bathrooms... sounds like a recipe for disaster.
Will the feminists now want men penalized for aiming poorly ?
This will have predictable consequences — all restrooms will become men’s rooms (what woman in her right mind would want to use them).
Now that's something I would never say here....or aloud anywhere.
: )
Haha...PLEASE see my clarification a couple posts down; it took me one second too long to realize how people might read that...
A sense of community?? What sophistry.
I would like to know how many transgender students there are as opposed to everyone else at that university. My guess is that it is miniscule.
