Welcome to The World's Most Dangerous Beauty Salon, Inc.
My name is Susan DuQuesnay Bankston. I live in Richmond, Texas, in the heart of Tom DeLay's old district. It's nuttier than squirrel poop here.
I am honored and privileged to know Miss Juanita Jean Herownself, hairdresser extraordinary and political maven. Since she does not have time to fiddle with this internet stuff, I type her website for her and you can read it if you want to. If you don't, she truly does not give a big bear's butt.
A lot of what I post here has to do with local politics, but you probably have the same folks in your local government.
This ain't a blog. Blogs are way too trendy for me. This is a professional political organization.
OMG … it is so true!! And those Senators are usually of the Republican breed.
LOL
1Houston rest assured. Huckabee is so far the only ‘man’ who says he would don a dress for lounge lizard privileges in the girls’ shower room. Vitter prefers family restrooms with diaper changing stations.
2The one thing you can count on is the republickers having stuff in their closets. Themselves, dead hookers (either gender), live hookers (same), children, farm animals, drugs, stolen money, terrorist ties, lobbyists, etc. It’s a good thing we have them around to let us know right from wrong. I can only assume the man in this ad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYpko86x6GU
3is David Dewhurst.
On the plus side, the next time I see a woman sneaking out of a 30 person long line at an event and heading into the empty men’s room, I can call the cops and have her beaten, shot, and sent to jail. Finally, justice against the perverts.
I wouldn’t doubt it for a millisecond!
4I’m not completely sure of this but I have heard rumours that there may soon be a lot of signs that say “Men” or “Women” available at the surplus outlet up here at the Pennsyltucky Snake Yewniversity.
5They need restrooms with signs that read “Men,” “Women,” and “Trans” and that way everyone is covered … and maybe even throw in “Republican” because that one would cover a whole nuther brand of users!!
6BUT!! BUT!! BUT!! DON’T CHANGE THE SUBJECT!!!!!!!
7Are the bathrooms in Texas different from everywhere else? Don’t they have any stalls?
I realize that such amenities are in shorter supply in Men’s than in Ladies’ rooms. But if they’re really so paranoid about the birth gender status of whoever would be viewing their wee wee-wees, they should consider passing a law requiring that all bathroom facilities offer visual privacy – can’t do much about the noises, I fear.
Or they could just grow the f%*~ up. But I won’t hold my breath on that one.
8I like the ones that say RESTROOM. You’re on your own.
9Marcia in CO, my limited knowledge of the T segment of the LGBT community is that their gender identification is also Men & Women, so they’re fine with the current signs. However, you are onto something with a special set of cans for the snacilbupeR crowd. With their propensity for ammosexual ‘accidents,’ we’d all be safer if they dropped their draws and guns away from the rest of us.
10How about the way restrooms are labeled in CA: “Unisexual Use; Please ensure locks are enabled”. And believe it or not, the lock works. Ta Da!!
Somehow, I’m not surprised about the outcome in Houston; that is the same tactic which was used to defeat the Equal Protection Amendment in the late ’70’s. Worked then, worked now.
11I’m guessing a lot of men would be tickled pink to have ladies come in their side and ASK FOR IT!
Fer gawd’s sake one sees this behavior in bathrooms in movies and on teevee all the time and few people even pay attention.
12In someplaces they already have the solution. They have Men, Women, and Family. Family is for mothers to take their little boys or fathers their little girls cause people get upset when they see an opposite sex child in “their” restroom. Those “dangerous” T’s can use that one.
Too much fuss over nuthin. Again.
13Sorry–meant to say “Equal Rights Amendment”
14I wish my sainted mother were alive today to get a load of this! As much a southern belle as she was, she absolutely loved tent camping. And where my sainted father liked to go there were no “facilities”. She handled the trowel and TP roll as well or better than my brothers.
She’s probably politely laugh in these folks face. “Go in you stall sir, and take a match with you!”
15Sorry–meant to say “Equal Rights Amendment”, not the improper title given.
16Go to Europe and stay in a hostel! Common sleeping, common bath, common toilet, they just have doors on the individual stalls, except in the sleeping area where we are all together in the altogether!!
17The only dims that care about common baths are the common xtian fundy.
LOL at Micr … you are so correct!
18The implication is surely obvious:
Time to prohibit US senators from using public restrooms.
19How many US Senators have been arrested for sexual misconduct in bathrooms?
And how many US Senators have been arrested for sexual misconduct in trans women?
Pedantic former English majors wanna know!
20I’m with Marge on this one. If it’s a restroom with multiple facilities, screen the urinals and make sure the stall doors work, and we’re golden.
21The best bathroom use is in LBTG clubs. All bathrooms can be unisex because the women are not interested in the men’s little weenies, nor are the men interested in the women’s lady parts.
22Mental Ben makes me believe that there is, in fact, an alternate universe. Beam me up…
23We need a delete/edit button. My comment should be someplace else. Damn phone.
24If memory serves me correctly before the civil rights legislation of the 1960’s, the more liberal establishments in the south offered three different restrooms. To wit men’s, women’s, and colored. As President Eisenhower once said,”Times have never been so much like they are today.”
25I like the public restrooms in Oz. They’re marked “toilet.” I’ve had the experience, Truely Texan, of being on line for the ladies room, and it’s not just 30 people long, it’s 30 minutes long. When the men’s room was vacant, I entered. No one was bothered, and I didn’t have to wait half an hour to pee.
26I was in a line at a museum in SF–twenty women for one restroom, no men in the other. Told my friend to hold my place in line, checked the empty men’s room for occupancy, then called three women into the room while I stood by. Cycled about nine women through, then a man came up. He waited until the Men’s room was clear, then used it, and we went back to the women cycling through. It worked like a charm; after I did what I needed to do, I passed the duty of “Doorwarden” on to the next woman and it kept working like a charm.
What I learned: when a problem arises, don’t be afraid to take action. It was a Win/Win for everyone.

28Outstanding solution. I have done the same for my wife. Your lucky a senator wasn’t around! Chances are a woman would not have been what he was looking for.
@Zyxomma
General restrooms sound like a good solution. Maybe if the repugs were not always trolling the restrooms for victims, they might not assume everyone else is doing the same.
Maybe get them all a copy of “Everybody Poops”.
