    Honest question: how is this not the solution to the whole “trans bathroom” barking? It solves literally every issue for both sides.

      Unisex bathrooms have a worse capacity-to-space ratio compared to regular ones - aka they can’t handle as many people. Which means they’re not a suitable replacement for places with a high volume of bathroom visits.

        in most Nordic countries, they don’t care about gendered bathrooms in a large number of places. the solution is easy- extend the doors lower and higher on the stalls. they also don’t have a problem with seat pissers for whatever reason

        I don’t mean to have one toilet in one larger room, but to have several(more than two) small rooms with one toilet a piece along like a hall or something. Same total square footage as a traditional public restroom, just structured to be a single occupant. Think like a line of portapotties.

          Do the small rooms still have sinks though, or are they shared? I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a bathroom like this. Are the “rooms” the same size/layout as standard bathroom stalls, just more private?

            I’ve seen this before. The rooms are like “traditional” bathroom stalls in size and amenities, with the sinks in one place outside. It ends up being structured a lot like a normal multi-person bathroom, just with real rooms for each stall.

          The original comment said unisex single occupant, and unisex multi occupant bathrooms are almost unheard of. I only know they exist because one arcade bar near me made their bathrooms all gender but I feel like they only get away with it due to being in a very liberal area.

    • You forgot the actual issue. The cruelty is the point. They don’t want us to have a bathroom at all, that way they can murder/rape/arrest/harass us when we use the rublic restrooms.

      I love bouldering. In my bouldering gym they have labelled the bathrooms with “bathroom” and “bathroom & urinal” and it works beautifully. I can definitely see that not working out in some other places though.
