Sorry to clarify it's what they are calling the Bedhampton store that has mixed sex toilets (it's in the carpark for the asda that they call Waterlooville, both of which are actually in Leigh Park! One of those things where you decided to change the names of things because it suits you better than the facts Hmm )

I'd go back with a knife and some glue and switch so the men's is unisex.

I went in a KFC in Waterlooville (near Portsmouth) and it only had mixed sex loos with fully enclosed stalls for use by anyone and communal sinks. I wouldn't go back again not just for that reason, the food was crap and had no cutlery but I was very uncomfortable finding myself in the toilets alongside the men.

@drinkswineoutofamug KFC are DM-ing me on Twitter to ask which branch this is. Could you post that info here please.

wigglybluelines · 06/11/2019 16:34

Has anyone been to other KFCs recently? Is this a one off or are more KFCs doing it?

Selbar · 06/11/2019 16:32

Which one in Stoke?

firstimemamma · 06/11/2019 15:58

KFC is a pretty awful and unethical company, this is nothing compared to the other stuff they do.

MarieIVanArkleStinks · 06/11/2019 15:51

At this rate women will be unable to participate safely in public life. If any other group were being discriminated against in this way, there would be an outcry. But no, it's okay to stampede over the rights and safety of women.

Looks like Gilead's already here. I'm genuinely afraid.

MissLawls · 06/11/2019 15:31

@drinkswineoutofamug STOKE! Oh my lord we're all sunk if it's come up this far! (I live 10 miles north of Stoke). I honestly thought we were safe up here.

TrampStamps · 06/11/2019 15:12

Just to be clear, there was also a separate disabled toilet (not pictured)?

Had a chance to read those links Cymatic?

Better read this Cymatic

For those who don't give a FCK about safety, dignity and privacy:

Somebody nailed it earlier, the male sex is now the protected characteristic in the EA

KFC needs to add a U to its initals because this it fails to give one about women's needs.

WitchfinderGeneralHarrumph · 06/11/2019 14:47

Thanks Cymatic - that's good to know. Unless... what if it actually happened in a KFC?

Good to know that we can just disregard our concerns.

Wishforsnow · 06/11/2019 14:42

Cymatic there have been rapes in fast food outlet toilets. Even as far back as the 80's that I am aware of.

theflushedzebra · 06/11/2019 14:42

Wow, that's a really convincing argument, Cymatic

Sure, we're all really quite ok about losing women's facilities now you've posted that.

WrathofSIxFootSIxEIfKIop · 06/11/2019 14:40

Oh dear oh dear oh dear.

That seems weird. Sometime sit almost seems like people make random decisions, they don't make sense for anyone.

OttomanUmpire · 06/11/2019 14:29

But isn’t the idea that trans women are not men? Hmm

And not least that all these women should have somewhere away from men who might attack trans women?

Not that all women now must use the men’s toilets?

Is there an actual coherent position on this available from anywhere?

theflushedzebra · 06/11/2019 14:18

cctv??
