The lack toilets in every imaginable place is insultingly ableist and very degrading. It’s like people are ashamed we’re fucking people and need to piss and shit all the time. And then the cops have the gull to threaten me with fines when I take a leak under a tree in a park. You literally treat dogs better than people.
Most people like dogs, but they don’t like other people.
Yeah but there’s a reason for that. Dogs are great, humans not so much. Dogs are innocent.
In what country you can get permits without a bathroom???
At first I though “surely this is about the US”, but no, even in the US at least some states require public bathrooms in all coffee shops, cafe, restaurants etc. Some states have exceptions depending on the size of the establishment and some states do not have this regulation at all.
I also just checked Dutch and some other countries’ laws. Public bathrooms are required for new establishments with no exceptions. I have not found a EU-wide regulation though.
Vancouver, B.C. Canada Checking in, bathrooms are only required if you have indoor seating, so a lot of places didnt reinstall their tables post pandemic, and thus kept their washrooms closed
Provide a restroom, or become the restroom.
Here it is compulsory. I am very surprised to hear that in the USA it isn’t.
It’s honestly pretty rare for places to not have one in the US unless you’re in the downtown part of a major city. Sometimes when walking downtown, it feels like every shop’s bathrooms are staff-only.
Here we have laws that even include the allowed ratio between bathroom stalls and clients
Sounds like an American problem to me. Right?
From what I’ve heard Europe is way more gatekeepey with their bathrooms. Having ones you have to pay for? It’s extremely rare for a place to not have a bathroom here, even in a city.
Edit: I think I grew up in one of the states where they’re pretty strict about having bathrooms. Blue states rule lol
