Interesting that you say that on a blog which is mostly someone being offended at the idea of gender neutral toilets. So offended that he thinks it's a deliberate ploy to make him annoyed.



That's not how I read the post. At all. I actually think he has a point, I and don't care abut the bathrooms. Maybe he should have skipped that example..


Do you really not see how bringing up gender neutral bathrooms at a hacker conference might be a little off topic and designed to offend?

Here's a hint: I've known lots of trans and nonconforming people who use whatever unisex bathroom they feel like when they're at an event like this, and nobody cared, because these communities accept lots of "non traditional" types. That's the whole point. Let your personal flag fly.

If you come back with "Oh but that's a micro aggression against trans people"... Welcome to the problem. Just punch me in the face, I'm a Nazi. QED.
