Urination will go to committee
A local decision that schoolboys must sit on toilet seats when urinating
has provoked political debate.
The head of The Democrats Party, a splinter group of former Progress
Party hardliners, Vidar Kleppe, is outraged that boys at Dvergsnes
School in Kristiansand
have to sit and pee.
Kleppe accuses the school of fiddling with God's work, and wants the
matter discussed at the executive committee level of the local council,
newspaper Dagbladet
reports.
"When boys are not allowed to pee in the natural way, the way boys have
done for generations, it is meddling with God's work," Kleppe told the
newspaper.
"It is a human right not to have to sit down like a girl," Kleppe said.
Principal Anne Lise Gjul at Dvergsnes School would not comment on
Kleppe's plans to make political waves and regretted if anyone was
offended by the ban
on standing and passing water.
Gjul told NRK (Norwegian Broadcasting) that the young boys are simply
not good enough at aiming, and the point was to have a pleasant toilet
that could
be used by both boys and girls.
