The U.S. Navy has decided on a new form of berth control.
bathrooms.
traditional porcelain bowls in the heads (or bathrooms) of the newly designed
aircraft carrier, which can hold over 5,000 sailors.
With universal bathrooms, switching the room assignments for each berth between
the genders will be much easier.
Class Kaylea Motsenbocker told Navy Times recently.
However, most bathroom specialists think traditional restrooms are way less
efficient. Bathroom experts told the Navy Times that urinals cost less, take up
less space, and are more sanitary (fewer men miss their target with a urinal).
The Ford is the first new class of aircraft carriers designed in 40 years,
making urinal-free ships the wave of the future, meeting the increasing number
of women joining the Navy. In fact, it was under actual President Ford in 1976
that women were first allowed to join the Naval Academy. 81 of the 1,300
24%, just above the average 18% female population of the Navy overall.
With these numbers, it looks like urinal-free ships are here to stay, so brush
up on your target practice, gentlemen sailors.
