Small Victory for Transgender Bathrooms

If you are eating in Santa Cruz in the future, you may want to check out the Saturn Cafe, a gay/lesbian/transgender/etc friendly restaurant that’s been around for a couple decades. It’s vegetarian (we won’t hold that against them this time), and now features some of the first unisex, multi-stall bathrooms. One of their bathrooms has a picture of an Elvis impersonator, the other a couple women, or possibly men in drag. The idea – anybody can use either. While I’m personally in favour of this move (though I know not every place could pull it off!), I’m not so sure about the vague signage. It’s liable to leave as many people confused as it is enlightened.
