http://chaser.com.au/world/mike-pence-horrified-to-discover-unisex-toilet-in-own-house/
Vice President and conservative campaigner Mike Pence has today used the power vested to him as Vice President of the United States to issue a proclamation that nobody in his house is allowed to use the unisex toilet adjoining the spare bedroom. Calling the Caroma Uniset liberal propaganda, Mr Pence warned that anyone caught within five metres of the guest room en-suite would be damned to the fires of an eternal hell.
Its just not natural Pence explained to his wife as she urgently hopped back and forth on the balls of her feet. Im afraid from now on youre just going to have to use the womens bathroom at the park down the road, or hold it in until we visit the mall on Sundays.
Pence however was quick to clarify that his stance was in no way related to bigotry against women nor was it linked to his deep-seated hatred of trans people. Im simply following the teachings of the Bible, and helping others see exactly how Jesus felt about the designation of public bathrooms at schools and local shopping malls, said Pence. When God created Adam and Eve he did so with the explicit instruction that they not use the same porcelain lavatories to dispose of their bodily waste. The supreme being is very concerned with these things you know. Thats why he never gets around to solving the whole starving children thing.

Haters are gonna hate. The joke is on America.
But still, this is crazy, even for Pence.

(129,133 posts)i.e, did not have any brothers (father had died when I was young), it always boggled the mind as to this whole issue.
When I was a freshman in college, I happened to be part of an "experiment" where my dorm was not only co-ed, but the floor was co-ed, and the bathrooms (including showers) were co-ed. It was eye-opening to say the least but it evolved into what might happen in a typical household with brothers and sisters.
Pence is 3 years older than me. There's a whole generation of us who grew up watching 6 kids sharing one bathroom (that apparently had no toilet as I just found out) -
