MN - help dh and I with a disagreement please.

When dd(4) needs the loo in a public place, he takes her to the ladies' loos. I told him that women don't like that and he should take her to the men's loo. Aibu or is he?

Or even a crash course

Ilovelampandchair · 20/11/2017 09:16

Rufus, from what I read women's toilets came about to separate them as an underclass, no because they had 'rights'.

Rufustherenegadereindeer1 · 20/11/2017 09:22

I meant a right now

But I absolutely appreciate that i didnt make that clear Smile

Talking about this on this morning now

MyBeloved · 20/11/2017 10:53

Mumsnet famous again!

Laura25o6 · 20/11/2017 10:57

Ha it’s on this morning!! Your famous OP

Gileswithachainsaw · 20/11/2017 10:58

What's the result?

Sayyouwill · 20/11/2017 11:00

That was quite disappointing tbf. There was no real conclusion from the debate but the poles said 65% yes dad’s can use the ladies loos.

Gileswithachainsaw · 20/11/2017 11:08

So basically men can do what they like and despitebthe fact that women every day have having to find alternatives to unsuitable toilet situations without walking into the mens it's too much to expect men to do the same

JonSnowsWife · 20/11/2017 11:12

It appears they may be discussing this on This Morning today.

Just thought I'd give the OP the heads up.

JonSnowsWife · 20/11/2017 11:13

Ooops cross posted with Laura

Sayyouwill · 20/11/2017 11:14

Laura25o6 · 20/11/2017 11:16

Oh dear This Morning has lost air time. Oops

Sayyouwill · 20/11/2017 11:18

They questions whether men can do whatever they want and then started bitching about brexit and suddenly lose air... hmmm Hmm

Laura25o6 · 20/11/2017 11:19

Why is no-one answering the question about small boys? Why are little girls so precious they can't possibly experience a male toilet but little boys are fine?

This!

Aridane · 20/11/2017 12:13

For those of you who don't mind men coming into the ladies toilets - well, that is your personal view. You do not speak for me or women generally.

TheFairyCaravan · 20/11/2017 12:26

It pissed me off on This Morning that the woman who doesn't want them in the ladies said they should go in the disabled. That was the opinion of loads of people on Twitter and Facebook, too. 😡😡

Gileswithachainsaw · 20/11/2017 12:44

So disabled people and women. Any more groups of people have to solve their problems now cos men won't sort their own toilets out?

Sayyouwill · 20/11/2017 12:45

It appears disabled toilets should be called ‘more convenient toilets’. To hell with the disabled people of the world.

One day when you’re coming out of using the disabled loo because you found it more convenient, and you come face to face with a disabled person who has defecated them self while waiting for you, who is upset and in tears, I hope you are at least honest with your kids as to why someone has had to face incomparable embarrassment and a lack of dignity, all so your precious trolly full of shopping or oversized pram could accompany you to the loo.
