Great article... I teared up on several occasions. As a veteran of the US Marines, I frequently share my photo of stall-less facilities at Twenty Nine Palms on Facebook in the debate over bathrooms. LOL... I think it important women in particular understand thru experience the physical requirements to which a Marine rifleman is held. In a combat environment, we dreamed about "the rear", being "stateside", or just anywhere they had a "porcelain seat." Resources like female bathrooms in the Persian Gulf region are even more difficult to find. Gender integration is great, but there are truly physical differences between genders that make certain jobs they perform easier is all. No one would even consider forcing integration of the Varsity football team's front line though. Having local teachers experience this training helps me feel more understood and accepted, which is incredibly positive in more ways than you know. Respectfully!
