Cape Town - I have been following the debate about unisex toilets for school pupils with sad amusement.
A question arises in my mind, what about school staff?
Are they not also entitled to unisex toilets? I would imagine that they are.
However, why do the authorities stop at schools? What about the workplace?
What about public toilets? If school pupils grow up with unisex toilets, what happens when they leave school?
Imagine the shock pupils will experience in the harsh real world if such a dubious privilege is suddenly removed.
I must immediately invest in a sanitaryware factory.
Imagine the thousands of toilets and kilometres of pipes that will be required to complete this debatable project!
However, I suppose that any tenders will be awarded to everybody’s uncle, as appears to be the trend in government circles.
The infamous Riff Raff must be in his element as, indeed, once again “Madness takes its toll”.
