Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.

Assholes don't care about bathrooms or they would simply make unisex ones with private stalls, open areas sinks, and complete view to the outside hallway. The safest and most reasonable option, but no here we are getting cops involved because people love being cruel.
Bonus points if having a small sink in a stall. Makes the process more hygienic and is invaluable in certain situations (mess, periods etc.)
Or at the very least a private room with all the amenities for the certain situations like you mentioned and families (diaper change, small children with parents, etc). Interestingly those are not uncommon.
Course they do. But they've grown up with segregated bathrooms in most places so it's very difficult for them to treat unisex ones as a real option.
You're treating people who disagree with you as if they only disagree about one thing.
They do only disagree about one thing: they have been worked up into a fantasy world through fear. They are stupid enough to believe that there is a danger that doesn't exist. Fear spread by the very people who are using their power to literally be a danger to kids.
I have no compassion for idiots and fools.
We have that at the PDX airport!
I have never been there, but I have seen photos and not only do they have the stall idea correct, the open area is beautiful. Just a really nice space.
The airpory only recently got remodeled and they did a really good job of it.
Woah, that's gorgeous!
Seen them at a venue in small town Texas too (touristy, but small).
