All restrooms should be gender neutral with actually private stalls

There's a lot of benefit had from urinals for literally everyone involved. Maybe something like a urinal area and a stall area? Would sorta self load balance. Could see that being unsafer for women during low usage though.

there's really no benefit.

I love urinals ❤️, quick, space efficient, and a great place to complement a “friend” after some flirting. 🏳️‍🌈

to anyone. they're unhygienic, they waste water, they are not privacy-friendly, they require much more cleaning... i've been in unisex bathrooms with urinals and it's just awful for everyone involved.

Sure, they're relatively unhygienic but you aren't actually touching anything yourself. Not to mention men standing while pissing in stalls is... just as bad. You have to flush with normal toilets too so I don't really see how they waste more water. Plenty of people don't really care thaaat much about privacy when at a urinal (beyond a privacy screen) and those that do can still enjoy the gender neutral stalls.

The benefit comes from throughput. You can put way more urinals in the same amount of space as a couple stalls would use. And if the men go to the urinals to piss then that frees up more gender neutral stalls for everyone else. It's just better to have urinals than not to have them at almost any public facility unless you only have room for a single stall or two.

i've never been in a public bathroom that doesn't have both in the same place. it's awful and i wish they didn't exist.

[-] reev@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago

I am incredibly grateful that urinals exist, public bathrooms (and the queues for them) would be much worse without them.

[-] lime@feddit.nu 2 points 2 weeks ago

it doesn't take longer to piss in a toilet.

[-] reev@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago

Why is there often a queue for the women's bathroom and not for the men's?

[-] lime@feddit.nu 1 points 2 weeks ago

wouldn't know, i've never seen that happen. if there are queues they're usually equally long.

[-] reev@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago

Lmao ok sure

In the UK, where bathroom bans are a thing now, I've seen a lot of places brand the accessible bathroom as "gender neutral" as well.

The whole situation sucks, but it's nice seeing that people are taking steps to protect women from cunty cis women.

I don't think I have ever seen a gendered accessible bathroom where I live (Germany) since places usually only have one, but they aren't really usable as a gender neutral bathroom since you usually need a special key to access them, which is restricted to those who need them. I've only seen gender neutral bathrooms twice, once in a bar in Polen where they had a small hallway with some sinks and 4 rooms adjacent to it, each with a single toilet and during eurofurence where they replaced the bathroom signs with their own marking them as either only men, only women or gender neutral. The signs also said what was in them (urinals, stalls, period products). In both cases people did not care about who was using them since everyone just wants to get done quickly and get back out.

[-] savvywolf@pawb.social 6 points 2 weeks ago

They're not usually gendered here either, I more mean they're explicitly being marked as neutral rather than just "disabled". At my work they have a combined male+female sign on them as well as the weelchair guy. I was at a convention and they had "Gender neutral bathroom" on a printed out piece of paper stuck to them.

I've personally never seen any (they're probably only down in England) but supposedly locked disabled toilets are a thing here. But you can get the keys fairly cheaply online and LGBTI charities are giving them out now.
