You'll often see it said that surely mixed-sex/unisex/gender-neutral facilities cannot be an issue for any of us if they have cubicles.
Well they are an issue. The increased feeling of vulnerability that women report is not just a feeling, it is a reality. Some of you may be aware that Primark has made its changing rooms unisex in order to side-step the issue of whether male transitioners should use female changing rooms.
Since then, I have been seeing Primark's name pop up more regularly in newspaper reports of voyeurism and sexual assault. Not sure if the board have noticed or care.
But this case is more extreme than most.

A Met Police officer has admitted possessing extreme child pornography and filming a woman undressing on his mobile phone in the changing rooms at Primark.

The court was told the police officer was arrested on Wednesday after a woman at a Primark shop in Wandsworth heard a rustling sound in the cubicle next door to hers as she tried on clothing.
Prosecutor Hussain Suleman said: 'She looked underneath and saw there was a gap and a black mobile phone with its camera up. She began to scream and said 'are you recording me' She heard a response and he said no.'
Mr Suleman said the woman alerted her boyfriend who called security. Chaudhry was held by security officers until police arrived and he was arrested.
It was then discovered that Chaudhry had a cache of other upskirting videos in his possession. He also had child and bestiality porn.
His home in Wimbledon was searched and police found 50-100 moving and still indecent images of children at category A, the most serious kind. They also found thousands of category B and C images and pornography involving sex with animals.
The images were found on numerous devices in a box on his bedroom shelf, including four USB sticks, two Nokia mobile phones, two storage devices, two laptops and two iPhones.
The 36-year-old faced a total of five charges when he appeared at Wimbledon Magistrates Court this morning following his arrest at a Primark store in Wandsworth, south west London on March 30.
Prosecutor Hussain Suleman told the court Chaudhry could face further charges as electronic devices and mobile phones found in his home have yet to be examined and are suspected of containing more indecent images.
