My wife feels uncomfortable with gender neutral toilets.

I recently went to Home Theatre in Manchester where the emphasis is on gender neutral toilets. On a day when the production was a relatively traditional Merchant of Venice - albeit with a female Shylock - the largely late middle aged audience seemed very reluctant to use the gender neutral facility leading to the smaller more traditional gender based facilities being hopelessly over subscribed.

Tbh I don’t really have a preference but believe we have to acknowledge that approximately half the population is female and that they deserve to feel safe.
Personally I don’t think that trans people are in any way synonymous with predatory behaviour, but that they are a tiny minority and, while they should be respected, the needs of the 50% should be the priority.

P.S. Not uncommon to see signs suggesting that a female/male operative might be cleaning in a toilet designed for the ‘opposite’ gender and I’ve never known this cause an issue.
