with me, they will not only risk hearing me scream bloody murder, they will also risk having their private parts injured.

The right wing Christians have been sending missionaries and conquerors to Africa and the Caribbean for centuries. This has lead to a highly macho and intolerant environment. We need more progressives to go to Africa as teachers and aid workers, and to try to reverse he misogyny and homophobia that is so widespread throughout the continent.

Seriously, this could spawn a whole new industry. Bathroom Gender Monitors (BGMs). Any facility with more than 200 people would need a dedicated BGM available during open business hours. There's a supporting industry for training because, well...ya know, we can't have untrained BGMs just walking around willy-nilly plying their trade. Think of it as the next level of "toilet training". Maybe they need a license too (so the testing industry gets a boost).

Com'on folks. Obviously we've been thinking small and the NC legislature is way ahead of us. It's all about the jobs !

represent a trend. "More and more women...." I wish the media would actually report the numbers of such incidents instead of immediately getting all het up about something that might really be an isolated case.
