Andrew Wolf on the New York City Council:
At first, I was skeptical about their latest initiative, the potty parity law. Yes, our municipal legislative body is greatly concerned about the inequity in the number of men’s and women’s lavatory stalls. This vast societal problem has led to unfortunate situations in places such as movie theaters where men sail in and glide out in short order, as their wives and girlfriends wait on interminable lines for the chance to accomplish the same task. Many on the council would like to mandate that women get twice as many toilet fixtures as men. When I first heard of this, as soon as I finished laughing hysterically, I began to think that maybe this isn’t such a bad idea. Anytime that our City Council spends on trivia is time that isn’t spent doing serious damage in other areas.
