      I went to some toilets in a ski resort in Austria when I was 13
      Signs were in German - a Language I didn't (and still don't know)

      I had to take a guess

            XX and XY should be clear enough. You can't change that no matter how many bits you have lopped off/grafted on.

              Some people are XXY or XYY. Also, some XYs have female parts (due to an inability to repond to male growth hormone in the womb).

                  Almost pissed my self laughing

                  Reporter: Isn't this political correctness gone mad?
                  Student Welfare Bint: I think "political correctness gone mad" is itself an unpolitically correct term
                  R: Why?
                  Bint: Because using the term mad in a derogatory fashion is..erm... disabalist in itself

                    How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
