“Chaos in the Restroom: The Shocking Confrontation That Left a Mom Reconsidering Her Outrage!”

For men, the restroom situation is often even worse. Many dads might need to come into the women’s restroom to use a changing table. While many men’s restrooms do have them, it’s still not required by federal law in the U.S. So, they have no other option than to go into the women’s bathroom.

Some people say that all-gendered bathrooms would solve this problem. Anyone can use gender-neutral bathrooms: transgender or cisgender, gender non-conforming or gender-conforming persons. Those with disabilities and the people accompanying them benefit from all-gender bathrooms as well.

All-gender bathrooms can be either single-occupancy or group restrooms. Single-occupancy restrooms usually have grab bars and wide turn radiuses for wheelchair users. They are private, so parents can change diapers and assist small children. However, they limit the user to a single choice and cause queues when there are lots of people around.

Non-gendered group restrooms are the most inclusive, according to Neumann Monson Architects. Each stall in such a restroom has floor-to-ceiling partitions and full-height doors to protect privacy. The architects say it reduces wait times: “A non-gendered restroom gives anyone access to the next available lavatory, creating a more equitable environment.”
