Q-jumping
I shared on Facebook earlier this morning a BBC story about an English university that is spending public money introducing and re-branding ‘All-gender Toilets’ for the ease and comfort of what it says is ‘a growing population of Trans students’.
In a statement, the University of Northampton said the move was designed so that “there will be no situation in which two people of any gender identity will be in the same room, ensuring they can feel comfortable using the space”.
Hopefully a further statement will be issued explaining what the f*** that means.
Anyway, in the course of absorbing this nonsense, I could not help but notice that ‘LGBT’, a term with which I am familiar and comfortable, has now become ‘LGBTQ’.
‘Hold on a minute!’ I exclaimed, and set to work researching. It seems that there are alternative interpretations of the brand-new ‘Q’. One says it means ‘Questioning’; the other translates it as ‘Queer’, a term in the course of being ‘reclaimed’.
Whatever, I want to make it clear; it has nothing to do with me.

Where do you go when you have so many genders you don’t know which to choose? Sounds like a toilet accident waiting to happen. I always thought universities were about higher-education, not toilets. Must have been misled.
