Please read the entire article.

Not mentioned in it is the response of the Education Minister, whose government insisted that school accommodate gender-neutral individuals.

"Hopefully they will sort it out soon," he said.

So helpful.

I don't really want arguing about this. But this article highlights some of the problems with the whole concept of gender neutral bathrooms, especially when the school or organization takes it to an extreme such as this, where the majority of people are unaccommodated for the sake of political correctness.

Another issue is that the multi-stalled gender neutral toilets are in stalls where the dividers don't extend to the floor or the ceiling.

That's good if it's the only issue (and i can see why they wouldn't extend to the floor since it makes the stall a lot easier to clean, and if someone is dumb enough to look you can just kick them in the head). At my school you can see through the gap between the door and the frame in most stalls. They're as close to being designed for perverts as they can be without making the doors out of see-through glass. It's why i prefer using handicapped bathrooms/stalls.

and I bet a lot of students are reluctant to use a gender neutral bathroom out of fear it might make other students think they are gay or transgender when they are not
