I think it's a wonderful idea. Now everyone is catered for, problem solved.

So the toilets are functionally identical to the unisex toilets but they've given them new signs to help affirm trans=people in their belief they are no longer the sex they were born?

This is part of a push to change language and replace the idea of sex with gender ID, even though the vast majority of people sex-identify rather than gender-identify.

I do think we have been unaware of the incredible loss of clarity by allowing the incorrect usage of gender instead of sex in so many places for so long. It's made it much easier for TRAs to subvert provisions that had previously been made for women and girls because of their biology and the costs that society has placed on their biology through the imposition of gender into a need that is important because we supposedly all share female souls or brains.

Love it llangennith, but i was talking about the available Mumsnet smileys. (Yes I know there is a world outside Mumsnet.)

Segregated by sex factories? And toilets as factories? AnotherBewildered, I understand what you mean.

"Factories" = facilities. (Notion of toilets as "factories", is kind of skeeving me out)

If they'd just leave the male and female toilets as segregated-by-sex factories for male and female people, they wouldn't have to worry about excluding any genders. Because segregation by sex is already gender neutral. You can be any gender you like, or none at all but if you're of the sex capable of producing small, module gametes, you're free to use the male toilets. Asymetric blue short-ish hair, they/them/xie/he pronouns, and of the sex that is capable of giving birth? You're still welcome in the female facilities. Right along with every other female person. Inclusive. But, like, actually inclusive, not discriminating by personality or clothing.

Means you don't have to join the (usually) long queue for the Ladies while the men are in and out of theirs.

Is one of those a merperson?

Unisex is one thing but this is purely for the benefit of the very very few? I’d be finding a nice quiet broom cupboard, dedicating in a Jiffy bag and leaving it in the liven hole of whoever thought this one up
