Hey quick question @TfL will this reduce female provision at Ealing Broadway? Are the existing male facilities staying and men just need more toilets somehow?

The existing female toilets are going to be converted to male and female toilets.

(Do we have a thread where examples of this sort of thing are collected?)

The wording is odd. Converting the female toilets into male and female toilet facilities sounds like they are splitting the ladies into 2 separate lots of loos.

Surely it should say 'converting the female toilets into mixed sex facilities.'

If TFL's policy is to introduce mixed sex toilets the we ought to investigate judicial review against this.

Funny, I thought they were supposed to be clamping down on sexual assaults and harassment of women on public transport not enabling it.

Maybe they'll close the men's, and it'll become staff toilets!

I think we need more information about this. Is it going to be rolled out to more stations? Hopefully, The Times will investigate... Yet nothing will be done to stop it.

This is sex discrimination, surely? Women are being treated differently from men, simply because they are women.

This station must also convert the male toilets for use by females and males to avoid a charge of sex discrimination.

If we don't stop it now, they will do it everywhere. I know they will.

Jesus baker street toilets are grim enough without letting men in. Tfl staff have (or used to have) their own key, so although they use the block they have a much less trashed loo.
Of all the places to have unisex loos, this is the most dangerous I think. And just grim. It's so bloody unfair

Ffs! They really don't think anything through, do they? I would contact the station manager and complain/educate (him, presumably!) on the importance of women only spaces!

KatvonHostileExtremist · 21/08/2019 08:15

Are they out of their minds?
Station toilets. Great. I'm so sick to the back teeth of this backshittery

You know who helped persuade them to get rid of "ladies and gentlemen" announcements? Aimmeeee furry nappy wearing fetish challenor. Well for listening tfl. Slow fucking hand clap.

They are idiots.

Interesting - they didn’t give women access to the men’s even for 12 days.

But they will then be giving men access to the womens’ toilets - forever?

SnuggyBuggy · 21/08/2019 07:28

So whats happening to the men's toilets?

TransposersArePosers · 21/08/2019 07:27

Oh ffs. Do they not consult actual experts on this sort of thing, like Clara Greed? It was after listening to her Woman's Place talk that I realized that women are already hugely disadvantaged. Or is this the first stage of both mens and ladies toilets being changed to mixed sex (I think not).

Great idea Tfl, lets give men more and women less.
