The Father of Potty Parity...
has far more than just one 'baby'.
The New York City Council
is currently considering a 'potty parity' bill, that would give women twice as many restrooms as men have. The Associated Press, as per usual, contains several fawning references to John Banzhaf III, who they refer to as "a public interest law professor at George Washington University Law School". Apparently, he's filed several court complaints, including the first federal-level complaint, suing to give women twice as many bathrooms as men. The AP dubs Banzhaf the "father of potty parity." I find it kind of deceptive that the AP makes no mention of Banzhaf's previous crusades, especially since they've garnered such a reputation for him.
Banzhaf might be more familiar to readers as the "father of 'it's McDonald's fault I'm Fat!'"
obesity lawsuits. Perhaps you know him as the "father of
Action on Smoking and Health (ASH)", with DIY lawsuit kits, to help non-smokers have their smoking neighbors evicted. You might remember him as the "father of
high-school soft-drink bans."
'Father of potty parity' my right buttock. He's the death knell of personal freedom and responsibility.
