Now that I'm home, there was a disabled/baby change. Then a door with the usual male/female signs. Was expecting the usual left for men right for women.

No.

3 toilets with male/female , Normal toilet and sanitary bin. 1 male urinal. The doors locked floor to ceiling. 3 sinks and cctv.

And once again It's women who are expected to accomodate and compromise their safety and dignity.

Are these all with stalls inside?

I have seen instances where the toilets were just singles, where the women's was also the disabled toilet, because it was a good deal larger to accommodate small kids and strollers and a change table, as well as a wheelchair, stability bars, and so on.

While this leaves the women's toilet busier and that can be an issue depending on the size of the place, it's not really caused by a desire to be gender neutral and it doesn't really put women in a position of not having privacy from men.

Assuming there aren't more loos, presumably they've done the lazy and entirely wrong thing by leaving the loos with urinals as men's and making the women's loos open to all.

If they want to provide any-sex loos then it either needs to be in addition to men's and women's, or they need to redesign the whole lot to make them all proper enclosed self-contained (sink and sanitary bin) no-spy cubicles. If they do that they should include a parents&child larger space as I assume families are a significant part of their clientele.

Sorry, it's in Stoke. I asked where the ladies was and the pointed to the mixed loos. The place was run by kids . Pointed out to said kids that there was mixed, men's or disabled but no ladies. We are to use the mixed toilets apparently

Yes Jade, it was Gingerbread's advisor and trainer to Merseyside Police in areas of Equality and Diversity, training staff at all levels of the Police force.

Nothing to see here, please move along; it was recorded as an assault by a female.

There was a similar photo recently and it turned out there were more toilets out of shot that made the photo misleading. Apologies for asking but are these definitely the only toilets there? Just want to be sure before posting elsewhere.

Wasn't in a KFC car park earlier this year where a transwoman attacked a girl with a hammer over a parking dispute (and ignored her boyfriend who was driving the car). It then emerged that the transwoman had been running diversity sessions for the police - and somehow avoided going to jail

KFC CIS

CIS in this case means Chicken Is Shit but I love what I did there Grin

An incredibly easy one to boycott, thankfully.

Accessible loos always have wheelchair symbol on so could be they haven't got around putting all up or someone nicked them? Nothing would suprise me! Maybe mean time they stuck up a man to make clear is a loo not broom cupboard?

JFC, KFC.

eyeoresancerre · 06/11/2019 12:49

That gives me the rage. Why oh why do the blokes get to have their own toilets? Raaaaagggggeeee.

sheshootssheimplores · 06/11/2019 12:49

I hope you enquired where the ladies was?

WitchfinderGeneralHarrumph · 06/11/2019 12:49

FFS, KFC; WTF?

9 letters needed. Are they individual cubicles with piss all over the floor & seat?

Sicario · 06/11/2019 12:47

Which branch is this in? Can you be specific or if not just give us the area?
