    We have gender neutral bathrooms. They aren’t called exactly that but I get complaints from people in red hats quite often.

    I’m always like “dude (it’s always a guy) we have two single person bathrooms. Why do we need to label them? Just pick a toilet and do your thing”

    How do gender neutral bathrooms work? There are urinals and stalls which can be used by everybody? If so, I’m fine with that. Just don’t remove the urinals and make everybody wait forever.

      The gender neutral bathrooms I’ve seen in Seattle (at the airport and a library) have floor-to-ceiling stall dividers that don’t have cracks between the door and the divider and they just have a large shared sink. The one at the airport had urinals on the opposite side of the wall as the stalls so you had to walk around if you wanted to get to them, meaning nobody would accidentally walk to the urinals.

      In short, gender neutral bathrooms are just more private. How horrific.

      there’s no one standard, it depends on what the facility owners have space for and what they think works best

      it can be just one or a series of regular bathrooms like you’d have at home, it can be multiple normal bathrooms behind a common door, a room with stalls in them, etc

      urinals are only really needed in really public places i find, stuff like restaurants only need one or two regular bathrooms.
