Protest Arises Over Gay-Only Toilets in Brazilian School

As Brazil prepares for its annual spring carnival festivities, there is disagreement over a proposal that places toilets in samba schools that are designated for exclusive use by gay and transvestite participants.

Old Pudfark sez: " That there would be a tease on you, Slick... "

or, like Michael Buffer says, "let's get ready to Rumba!"









.....or, something like that, I think.
