Braille on the Bathroom Door

Can we stop with this already?

What is it going to take?

Will it take a promise from every American that if a blind dude has to pee, you’ll lead him to the appropriate venue?

Are blind people using these?

If I was a blind guy, and I had to pee, I’d go in whatever bathroom I found first.  What’s the difference?  Does lady pee sound that different from men pee?  Can’t every bathroom be a unisex bathroom when you’re blind?

There are hundreds of decent excuses for going in the women’s room if you’re a blind man.  Examples:

-I couldn’t see the signs on the door.
-I followed the sounds, and you have a very baritone-y voice, madam.
-I AM BLIND.

And what am I supposed to do, stand there feeling letters, figure out I’m in the wrong spot, then turn around into the darkness of abyss that is the entire world to me until I find the men’s room?  Fuck that.

Bet you didn’t know I was such a crusader for the blind, huh?

Also, I think that those blind canes are red on the tip because they’re really just giant cigarettes, and if blind folks didn’t smoke such ridiculous amounts they probably wouldn’t be blind in the first place.  But that’s a discussion for another day.
