Popped into Starbucks earlier and when I went to the Ladies...

Fuck's sake.

Normally I’d agree with being annoyed, and I am annoyed on principle about why no women only (without splashed pee) if there is a man only. In this case though, aren’t these all single rooms behind each door? If so, in the mixed sex ones no woman would ever be in there alone with a man, which is something.

I'm trying to make sense of the photo.

Is it one Standalone cubicle with lock at the far end, then at the near a men only multi use, then a mixed sex multi use in the middle?

Three cubicles - one for men, the other two are unisex.

I'm pretty sure that's illegal isn't it???
I'm sure Black Belt Barrister made a video on exactly this type of thing and I'm fairly sure he concluded it's full on illegal, if you're going to do this, you need male, female AND mixed sex, not just mixed sex and male :S

So men can have privacy but women have to share. Absolute bollocks. If they want to do the gender neutral shit at least do it across the board. This is even more insulting.

Yes it's only women who have to be kind

SirSamVimesCityWatch · 20/02/2024 19:13

In that situation I'd go in the men's, just to be annoying.

Fuckers. Which branch?

Glasgow.

And I've complained via their website with the photo. I don't think I've seen this in any other Starbucks near me.

I mean, I'm not being mad here, am I? By all means have your unisex one but one of each with the remaining two!

Even if the ‘men only’ one only has a urinal in it , it should surely be signposted so that transmen know they are welcome? That or make one of the mixed ones female only

Discrimination. They have provided unisex facilities for men, but not for women. Worth a complaint to the council?

FatFilledTrottyPuss · 20/02/2024 19:06

Fucks sake indeed. It’s always women who have to move over. Mind you, it’s not surprising from the coffee shop who promoted mermaids biscuits. 😤
