But to me, the taking away the pics, is just as bad as the buildings now that are going to unisex restrooms over all. I was in a church a year ago, a large church, for a wedding, it was a methodist church...and all their restrooms were unisex.... was just apalling. It's all part of the loss of gender identity inour society around us, and unfortunately, the church has decided to go along with it. Used to, we were trying to establish our own New Testament culture, but now we want to look like the culture around us.
As a single mom with boys, I have to admit that the unisex, and family, restrooms are heaven sent, IMO. My older boys are not old enough to go into a men's room alone in all public situations. But my oldest boy isn't really ok to take into the women's room anymore. What to do?

God did it for us. Out of sheer generosity he put us in right standing with himself. A pure gift. He got us out of the mess we're in and restored us to where he always wanted us to be. And he did it by means of Jesus Christ. ~Romans 3:24 from The Message
There's a bathroom in my house with two doors: one from my office, and one from the hall. I put a women's room sign on one door and a men's room sign on the other.

If we're going to base our doctrine on restroom signs.... it looks to me like that dude is in his birthday suit!
Hmm. Very good point. And the Scottish guy has a kilt on, but no shirt.

Only Timmy....
Ok, not only Timmy. lol My grandma used to have a bathroom with 2 doors and the grandkids all got together and did the "men" and "women" thing. She wasn't very amused. But we sure thought it was hilarious.

And when someone out and out says it is a sin and abomination for a woman to wear pants, what else do you expect?
But you know it's as bad for me to wear pants as it is for me to have a girlfriend. I mean, can't you see how closely related those two things are!?
Nevermind that when I *DID* have a girlfriend, I wore skirts almost exclusively.

Nahkoe, convenient yes, for something that is less than what God had intended for us. But, I'm not a fan of unisex bathroom at all.
An apostolic Man wears pants... as they are the distinctive garment in our culture.
In a culture made up of many cultures, how does this get preached as a Biblical mandate?
Did you know that 400 years ago, pants on men weren't seen as distinctive, but as unmanly? 400 years ago isn't that long ago, considering how long mankind has been on the earth. Men wore a dress-like garment far longer.
