A new UK-wide poll shows that the vast majority of adults prefer single-sex provision of toilets and changing rooms in workplaces, gyms and leisure centres, and for public toilets to be single-sex.
The liberal establishment's position on this issue is completely out of step with public opinion.And yet that position is often imposed mercilessly and without room for compromise or even debate.
It's also amazing that even a majority of Green Party voters believe transgender people shouldn't have free access to toilets and changing rooms of their choice. And yet bullying activists, abetted by a capture and cowardly media, have made this majority view a sackable and cancellable offense.
an interesting question would be "If there are only two single sex toilets available, should trans people use the toilet of their biological sex, or whichever toilet they choose?"
Last summer, on RAGBRAI (bike ride across Iowa), there was a long line for the women’s shower truck, and a very short line for the men’s shower truck. One of the women asked the attendant if the women in line could use the men’s truck. The attendant responded that the question had been raised before, but men in the shower truck, older men in particular, were very uncomfortable with women entering.
“Even among the youngest adults and Green voters, a majority agree that transgender people should not simply be allowed to use whichever facilities they prefer.”
Of course most people prefer single sex toilets. Women have specific needs (often involving blood) that men do not have. Women need privacy because our bodies are designed differently to men’s. It’s common sense. We need to sit down too as routine. Men don’t. Men can stand in open sided cubicles. Male and female bodies are different (who knew?!!!)

I hate peeing on after a strange man. They leave a mess everywhere. On the seat and floor where my feet rest. It is disgusting.
Then as I walk through the building I track their pee all through the building on the bottom of my shoes.
K. I. S. Keep it simple.

it is common sense, not transphobia

I use pink news as lavatory paper. It saves a fortune and I don’t even need the money.
Not surprised by the results, most people agree.
Prefer! They should be a legal right for all women.
Of course they do.
What?!?! Shocking revelation!! 🙄
Thanks, guys.
Very useful piece.
Have cross posted.
Good to see some of you at the lobby on Tuesday 😀
