Boom Goes Brazil Nowhere To Go
For most people entering a public restroom is a simple choice: it's either the men's room or the ladies' room. But people in Brazil may soon have another option. The city council in Nova Iguacu has passed a bill that, if accepted by the mayor, would require night clubs, shopping malls, movie theaters and large restaurants to provide a third restroom for transvestites.
A city councilman proposed the idea of "alternative restrooms" after dozens of transvestites attended a local samba show where both male and female patron's felt uncomfortable sharing bathroom facilities with them. Gay groups say this would be a victory for transvestites, who often avoid going to public places because there's always confusion about which bathroom to use.
