RE: United We Stand

I've not come across (no, not like that) many unisex loos, but I don't have an issue with the principle. If anything I'd expect the ladies to have more complaints. Are you generally suffering from harassment of a sexual nature at work?

We have separate boy and girls loos at work. The problems are more around it being an old building and things going wrong. It's a fair walk to the nearest ones (down 2 floors) and if those are out of order you have to go further. I have recently found two more gents' in the building whilst the close ones were out of action. It is a big place. They just don't seem to put up signs to guide you to them so for a while I was going further than necessary. That's not great when you're bursting.

Ah Mr S, you made me guffaw!!

Our old building was like that. This one is like a glass and metal spaceship. You wouldn't believe the ructions that the shared toilets are causing. Its mostly older people. Young people are like yeah cool. The ladies are the ones kicking up the most stink. I just channelled all their complaints before they could get in, lol!

Mission accomplished!

I suspect it's driven by cost rather than the dreaded 'wokery'. We have a new building on the site, but they have separate loos there too. What makes me laugh is restaurants where they have separate Ladies and Gents, but each is a single bog with a lockable door.

That makes me laugh too. If it is a lockable separate bog then who cares who uses it!

Cost will be a factor. Ours has less toilets than we used to have on our floor combined and I think it is cost and space seeing as we have less desks on our floor in a weird blending of home working and office working
