McDonald's removes controversial urinoirs
July 12 2006
HEERLEN (The Netherlands) - the establishment of McDonalds in Heerlen will be removing its urinoirs that are shaped like an opened woman's mouth. This decision was made after a shocked American complained to the Executive Board of the fastfood concern regarding the urinoirs, that look like widely opened lipstick-red coloured lips.
The owner, Giel Pijpers, of the concerned McDonalds establishment reported this on Wednesday. According to Pijpers the urinoirs are considered to be pieces of art, but in the United States one sees that differently. Pijpers will have them removed and sold . "I'm not going to make a fuss over a bunch of urinoirs", he said.
The news reached international newspapers and magazines!
1st I thought OMFG - this is the most sexist thing...
Just horrid! Absolutely horrid! Then I said to myself:
"Ah lighten up - Thank God it's not your lips..."
