A very small one for the sisters

[viques]

Queuing for the loo in Liberty’s yesterday. The signage is on the single external door is marked men and women but in fact they are fully enclosed cubicles so unisex. About six women waiting in the queue along the corridor, along comes a man, assumes that we are standing there for the good of our health and moves to skip the queue because let’s face it , men don’t queue.

“ Excuse me, dear, it’s a single queue.”

He had the grace to mumble an apology and join the end of the queue, but it brightened our hearts to see a table being turned, even ever so slightly.

i agree unisex seems a bit too wholesome and accepted a term but I use it for the lack of another. Bisex sounds too close to Bisexual for me and I worry other people could misunderstand that.
So what’s the appropriate word for Sexist Toilets? The kind where as jillgreen says, there are: One set of toilets for women (who are far more likely to need them) and two for men.?

Mixed sex covers it I think

I usually call them (loudly) ‘there’s men in there’ loos

I think mixed sex covers (1) loos with shared washing facilities or (2) loos with sinks in cubicles but a confined waiting area outside where men and women still have to queue together in an enclosed space behind a door.

I'd use unisex loo to describe a single toilet and sink fully enclosed behind a door that opens into a public space like a cafe or foyer. No confined waiting area.

Signage can be very misleading. I remember pushing on a door with male and female symbols on it expecting to find a corridor or lobby behind it with separate single sex facilities further on.

I walked straight into the small sink area of mixed sex loos with a guy in a cubicle pissing with the door open.

Is there a market for stickers saying:

CAUTION! May contain males!

I think I could improvise with some saying CAUTION - May contain nuts!

That's where I started
