Judge Rules Separate Restrooms Unconstitutional
Scrappleface ^ | 3-15-2005 | Scott Ott

A San Francisco County judge, who yesterday struck down California’s ban on homosexual marriage, today ruled on the same basis that separate restrooms for men and women are unconstitutional.

Superior Court Judge Richard Kramer likened the division of washrooms to laws requiring racial segregation in schools, and said there appears to be “no rational purpose for denying women access to men’s facilities and vice versa.”

“The state’s protracted denial of equal protection cannot be justified simply because such constitutional violation has become traditional,” Judge Kramer wrote. “The court finds that the legal principle of lavatorio proportio [potty parity] offers inadequate protections. In practice, it leaves women stranded in line while men swiftly accomplish their objectives. Beyond practicality, the idea that you can bar access to some citizens from restrooms which are open to others smacks of a concept long rejected by the courts — separate but equal.”

The decision was hailed by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the National Organization for Women (NOW).

“This ruling offers recognition that men and women are not only equal, but identical,” said a spokesman at a joint ACLU-NOW news conference. “The bigoted era of sex descrimination is over. From now on, the United States is one gender, under God, indivisible."

LOL. This captures perfectly the insanity of the left. I can hear a NOW member saying it, and believing it. And by the looks of some of the women libbers, I might be inclined to believe it myself.

Maybe not satire. If I am not mistaken a New York City judge said that transgender people could use the restrooms of either gender. It is all about choice.

I pray they won’t too. I doubt they will. Most people are well aware of who the enemies of America are.

In reality, however, a man going into a womens restroom would probably be charged as a sex pervert and placed on Megans list.

Of course it’s constitutional!

Why else would they call it a morning constitutional?

They ruled back in the seventies that female reporters could enter male sports locker rooms but not vice versa. The Yankees made the judge a cake that said, “US District judge Constance Motley eats ratsh*t.”

“They ruled back in the seventies that female reporters could enter male sports locker rooms but not vice versa.”

That’s extremely unfair. But then again feminazism has only been about “equality of the sexes” when it works to the advantage of women. It’s really about whatever women(or at least hyperliberal women) want whether it’s logically consistent or not.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I've noticed that newer buildings are providing more “facilities” for women. It is **very** irritating to be stuck in line why men breeze in and out of their restroom!

It is true that women's clothing and hygiene needs are more complicated, and we often have children in tow ( who have absolutely **no** concept of “Hurry up! Other people are waiting!”)

It has become increasingly difficult to tell these days. There's no more line between reality and satire.

Notice that this craziness always happens in some Democrat cess pool like San Francisco.
