An interim update from the EHRC, published in May, said that “trans women (biological men) should not be permitted to use the women’s facilities and trans men (biological women) should not be permitted to use the men’s facilities, as this will mean that they are no longer single-sex facilities”.

However, a response from Museums Galleries Scotland (MGS), which supports around 455 non-national museums and is funded by the Scottish Government, said EHRC’s proposals may “force some museums to close”, or “risk leaving trans people with no facilities at all” if changes could not be made.

    We should move onto a ‘by function’ system, where there’s one section with urinals, another with toilet cubicles, another could rooms for the handicapped. If women can piss decently into the urinal, more power to them.

    Now that I think of it, maybe we should have tissue paper dispensers and bins for people to dab dry their genitals at urinals. Just sticking it back in after flicking it thrice?

    Anyone and everyone can use any facility. Although it would be an asshole move to take up the handicap cubicle if there’s one waiting. But it would be idiotic to wait in a long line for regular cubicles if it’s empty.
