Don't get why the one on the left was kicked out. Makes no sense regardless of your political leaning.

The one on the right... it begs the question, if a cis woman can be kicked out of a women's bathroom for not looking feminine enough, rude and wrong as that is... is she supposed to go in the men's room?

The real question being begged is, can we just get individual bathrooms in public? That's the real answer. As a man, I don't want to share a bathroom with other guys. Not because I'm threatened by them, but because bathroom time is private time.

Alternatively, we could just have coed communal bathrooms everyone uses, everyone uses a stall, everyone washes their hands in the same line. Fathers of daughters might be upset, but they could go in with them.

All this bathroom shit is dumb as hell. Focus on the addicts shooting up in bathrooms, get them the help they need, leave everyone else the hell alone.

Hope they get millions. Would be better if it happened in the Deep South but we know they wouldn't get shit.

Seattle has done this in a few places! The city just redid a park along the downtown waterfront, and put in a big communal bathroom, and I've seen a couple at the SeaTac airport too. Maybe I'm a bit biased as a trans woman, but it really seems like the best solution to me.

i've seen these in a few places including, of all places, a cathedral.

It really makes no sense to me why these aren't more popular. Just have a wall of stalls with a couple for urinals and the rest as toilets, then a wall of sinks on the other side.

And, of course, put a trash can in each of the damn stalls. People act like cis dudes don't have garbage to toss in the bathroom either.
