Gender-neutral toilets stink in more ways than one

Shared loos have been imposed on the rest of us in the cause of making a tiny minority feel comfortable – and they’re awful

The gender-neutral toilet is a Trojan Horse. It’s designed to shore up the pretence that men and women are interchangeable by people who don’t agree there are only two sexes in the first place. However, there is no mistaking the fact that the Ladies and the Gents are very different. One stinks, and it isn’t ours, is it, girls?

My kids school just built a new block with gender neutral toilets. They’re already disgusting, the girls won’t use them. And no sanitary bins so actually not gender neutral at all.

better to call them mixed sex toilets

Went to the cinema last night. Lovely new complex, toilets stunk.

Going to send a complaint in later.

People are always arguing on reddit that women's toilets can get nasty too, supposed cleaners purporting that the female facilities are usually worse than the men's. Hmm but there's nothing like a train ride to remind you to do your shoe laces before going into the loos. I never have to remember that pretty much anywhere else. So I don't believe the arm chair cleaners.

Yes shared stinks.
I've found I have to flush before using at work lately. We used to be female heavy workplace, but have more men joining us recently and the staff loos are single room, lockable with a sink and bin. I really want to stick a notice on the wall behind the loo that says flush after use. So I don't have to. And something about peeing on the seat.

If you can do it this time, then you can remember how to do it next time. Okay?

One time I walked in on a man who failed to close the door behind him. I guess why would you if you are just there to piss, right? fucking akward

Yeah that's happened to me before too 😕. It's enough to put me off unisex toilets completely.

Can’t read the article, but they do stink, and there’s wee on the seat and floor 🤢

Just stop the page from loading when it's about 80 percent done.

I've been saying for ages the only way these types of setup should be permitted is with a compulsory sitting-down rule and splashback paint to enforce it. Some smart-ass in the comments comes up with the same old, same old airplane example again. Eeww honey, you ever been on an intercontinental flight in your life, and if so, how long did it take you to un-stick your shoesoles from the gooey mess that passes for the floor in those facilities?

And to think that just a few years ago we were still arguing about the best way to implement potty parity legislation.... 2:1 or better 3 or even 4:1 provision in favour of women? How far we've slipped backwards in such a short space of time.
