As someone's who works in secondary schools. The fact you can smell the boys loos a corridor away is enough of a resin for me

@Fadette

Why is it only The Times and Daily Mail reporting this kind of thing? Do the left wing papers look at it and say "nah, we won't report on this as it goes against our narrative"?
In a word- yes!

Some disturbing poll results

Well there's no other interpretation to make really.

There have been many articles iver the past few years talking about the hundreds of hours of school girls are missing due to period shaming etc

Then they go and install.mixed sex toilets and we are supposed to pretend they cabt possibly have known the impact ot would have and it cementing the conclusion in everyone's minds that girls are nothing more than behaviour management and props for male validation

@MoreAloneTime

Are we going to go back to the days of girls and women having to stay home during their periods?
Maybe that's the fundamental point of TWAW. Perhaps 'progressiveness' means we should revert to the old 'division of labour' and they can't find any other way to do it. VAWG, the end to single sex spaces, excellent strategy and it almost worked

It's either that, or fingers-the-ears, it's-not-really-happening.

Inexcusable, either way. I feel completely betrayed by the left and the centre.

In all seriousness, DD is starting secondary in September (not Scotland) and if her school does this, she will dehydrate herself in order not to use the toilet. This worries me. It's just another example of women and girls not mattering.

Gosh, who'd have thought it? Hmm /sarcasm

Whatwouldscullydo · 26/11/2021 07:16

Thanks. Another depressing article to start the day with.

Most of us figured this out in 5 seconds why are so many clueless morons running things.

What did any one expect

ChakaFridaMendips · 26/11/2021 07:12

And next step inevitably, will be changing rooms? Angry

Thanks for sharing. It’s obvious if you think about it but I hadn’t considered the point made in this article that in a secondary school, 11 year old girls have to share the toilets with 18 year old boys. It’s appalling.
