Comment on Co-op scraps policy allowing trans staff to use toilets they ‘feel safest’

  While the Co-op may not be transphobic itself, single occupant gender-neutral bathrooms are a solution presented by transphobes who want to continue misgendering trans men and women under the veneer of a discriminatory ‘compromise’.

  Trans people across the UK are having their rights marginalized.

    How are gender-neutral bathrooms discriminatory? They seem to me to be the perfect solution.

      Because installing them is still exclusionary to trans people, telling them that they do not belong to the gender they identify as and/or that they are a danger to the people of the gender that they identify as.

        And if a site has no gendered bathrooms at all?

  It’s segregation unless you meet some nebulous criteria.

    I’m not saying it’s good news, it’s just more mixed than you’d expect. Just criticising the headline.
