Someone must be, if the UK is banning them.
I believe this is England only. Health (which I believe this will fall under) is a devolved matter and the other governments are thankfully a bit more sane.
Well, they're not. It's only multi occupancy ones, which I'm not sure why they're banning because I've literally never seen one anywhere.
Standard all mouth, no effort needed policy by the Tories.
Huh, I must have got the wrong impression from the angry lemmy comments that were my only source of this information.
https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-building-requirements-for-separate-male-and-female-toilets
The aim of the new requirements will ensure that:
separate single-sex toilets facilities are provided for men and women and/or
self-contained, private toilets are provided where space allows to ensure privacy and safety
mixed sex shared facilities are not an option, except when lack of space allows only a single toilet
I don't quite understand. Why is the third point necessary if the second point exists?
And what do gender neutral toilets looks like in the UK currently if having self-contained toilets isn't it? I've never seen gender neutral toilets with American door gaps.
I'm not sure on the third one either tbh. A shared facility with a single toilet? I can only assume the Tories have been hanging out in some strange places.
