We have mixed toilets, small sealed rooms and they often stink of tit with pee drips all over the place to be honest. I’ve never found that in female only toilets. I find it bad enough to share a toilet with the male members of my family.

Those Democrat representatives are really reaching. They are making it sound as if the girls would be being asked to show their genitals before every P.E./games class, which just wouldn't be the case in real life. The question of whether or not any one individual child in a school is a boy or girl, this isn't something that would suddenly arise before a P.E/games class. So when they talk about 4 year olds having to show their genitals to prove that they are girls, I'm not really seeing the circumstances where this would arise in practice.

For any school competitions, be it within the school or with others, then surely the individual schools would know the sex of all their pupils. I very much doubt that there are trans children in schools unbeknown to the school admin. If they are referring to competitions that aren't organised by the schools, well, I imagine it would be only in vanishingly rare instances where there was any real doubt that about whether a child is a boy or a girl. And even fewer where the child and parents would lie about it if asked. And with children who have gone through puberty, the instances of visual ambiguity or confusion would be even fewer and could be dealt with on a case by case basis.

It's completely throwing out the baby with the bath water to suggest that because there might be extremely infrequent cases where there is the need to actually verify whether a child is a girl or a boy, then we should abandon girls' and women's only sport. It's a ridiculous argument to make and shows that there is no genuine and legitimate case for allowing males to participate in girls' and women's sport.

I agree. Shared loos are revolting. But 1 standalone loo that anyone can use, and then loos for male and females, according to biology, would be better than allowing them into our loos.

Share toilets don't affirm them as women. They don't want shared toilets.

I have queried with HR how they deal with things that conflict.
This is always a good question to ask. There is provision in the EA for conflicting rights eg what to do if a guide dog needs to be brought into an environment where someone has a significant phobia or allergy. If they are applying the Act lawfully, that's great. If not, it would fully undermine their credibility for me and alarm bells would be ringing.

Fewer HR departments still seem to be aware that duty of care to employees is set out in the Health and Safety at Work Act, so it's a legal duty, not just a 'nice to have'.

One of the places I have to go to for reporting has single-cubicle loos in one area which are technically mixed, but majority male. The toilets are old, which doesn't help, but they are disgusting. A lot of men avoid them and use the separate gents facilities in another building, because they don't want someone else's wee all over their shoes or person. This is a sport that involves wearing extremely expensive kit.

I've used them in an emergency and tried not to touch anything. Or remember the stories I've heard about a couple of men using them as a self booth.

We have separate toilets and some of the women who use them are minging. We have one who regularly wees on the floor 🤢 (pretty sure I know who this is and you'd never think it of her), at least one who is incapable of using a bog brush and we used to have someone who picked her nose and wiped it on the cubicle walls (definitely know who this is as it stopped once they left) Our admin team regularly have to send out emails about the state of the toilets. I still don't want to share with blokes.
I'm thinking of just setting up a bucket in a tent in the carpark. That way I don't have to deal with anyone else's disgusting habits.

Say what you want about Trump but Halle bleeping lujah. Never thought I'd say 'the adults have entered the room' and be referring to Trump but here we are.

I agree and I think it will push our policies the other way.

Everyone I know thinks Trump is a moron and can't believe he is getting a second term. I think this will just be another thing that people will want to prove we are not as "crazy" as Trump about

It was quite refreshing to see on TikTok a midwife making a post about 'birthing people' and every single comment of the hundreds there were asked her to call them women or girls and every comment had loads of likes. I really hope the tide is turning. It's such an awful term. It makes us sound like we are vessels for breeding and nothing further.

If there was an option, I'd suggest that a separate mixed-use toilet would be a suitable compromise. Most bigger offices I've worked in have had a random loo left over from when the building was a different configuration before an extension, or something like that. There was one place I worked where there was a single upstairs cubicle that had been part of an executive floor at one point. I used to go in there without fail at about 11am every day for a quick break.

I don't think the gender wonks want that, though, even though it would give them somewhere safe and private to use the loo.
BIB - No - they want access to the areas men aren't allowed. For validation.

I think that is how we're seen, honestly. Whether I'm thinking of becoming pregnant is always one of the first questions a medic asks me when I'm seeing them about an issue that has zero to do with reproduction. Before we even get to how are you it's ARE YOU PLANNING A PREGNANCY. I'm so stubborn that honestly, if I wasn't already childfree by choice, it would push me in that direction.

A very small thing in the scheme of things but it cheered me up a bit.
I signed up to a course last year and got the options - male/ female/ other made up gender/ you identify as - can't remember exactly. I really hate that 'identify as' nonsense. I don't identify as anything. I'm a woman. End of.

Anyway signing up this time around and it's back to male/ female. 😁
