Gender neutral restrooms would be a great way to reduce pregnancy.

If I sat on the throne next to someone who took a nasty, steamy, smelly, loud dump, only to see a hot girl emerge from the stall, I would probably swear off sex.

People need to grow up and realize that fee fees get hurt sometimes in the adult world. Deal with it.

Bad idea. There are inherent differences between men and women. There are a lot of terrible people out there who wouldn't be able to handle this kind of thing. I know a guy who has never had a date. He would probably hang out in a gender neutral restroom just to try to peep on a woman. It's just asking for trouble.

Depends. If its big and has a urinal and stalls then might have problems. As much as they try sinks often get unfortunate views of the action. All it takes is for one guy to whip around before he's tucked in to cause awkwardness. Mature people will be fine but not everyone is. In clubs? Hell no. Add young people, alcohol and a place both can go with a locked door with no trouble?

The general rowdiness of guys having a literal pissing contest is not going to end well. It'll become another argument that men steal space in a "shared" space and should learn to stop manspacing contrasted with women who hog the bathroom and really don't need to use the neutral bathroom for socialising. Bathrooms are there to to serve 2 purposes. Empty and wash. Its why we don't share changing rooms in gym. Its why we can ask for a prefered doctor of gender when it comes to genitals issues. men and women just approach it differently.

Now if we can keep the men/women and then have a third option we anyone can go as they please because of lines, not giving a crap or nervousness of declaring gender then i don't mind.

I worked as a bouncer for about a year in a bar. I would be absolutely, totally against this.

First off, for the men's bathroom. There is a puddle nearly everywhere on the floor from guys with too short of bats not stepping up to the plate by the end of the night. So women, tell me please about how comfortable you're going to be standing in urine. Cause it's kind of expected for us. Now you might say eliminate the urinal, and that wouldn't be as much of a problem? You'd be wrong, because now all those women who wanted to sit on the seats are going to have to deal with guys who didn't want to risk "germs" by touching that seat and lifting it up and instead pissed all over it. Making it filthy so no one wants to touch it. Girls wind up looking at a mess like that and deciding they'll take a piss either at home or in a bar that has a normal fucking bathroom.

That being said, as a guy, I'm not comfortable with what the girls did to that bathroom every single night. Flat out, just... no. I'd stop going to bars that implemented gender neutral bathrooms, due to the disturbing shit I regularly saw in the women's bathroom. If every single bar implemented that, I'd just stop going to bars altogether. Now part of that is going to be simple, the end of the night shit where yes, there were oftentimes a toilet backed up because some girl hadn't figured out by the age of 21 you're not supposed to fucking flush a tampon down the toilet. Like, seriously, how the fuck did some girls not figure that out before that age? I'd get it if the drinking age was lower, some people go through puberty late, that sort of thing. But to have gone through puberty over 5 years ago and still not understanding something that simple, that often... boggles my mind.

And finally, my biggest problem with a bar that had gender neutral bathrooms? The stalls would be taken by people fucking way too often. It would be just too easy and accessible, and way too natural of a problem for it not to occur around drunk people with lowered inhibitions not to take advantage of.

Other places with gender neutral bathrooms? I mean, whatever, if they want to do it knock themselves out. But it certainly shouldn't be enforced, and no bar should really ever consider doing this.

For private businesses, that is their decision to make.

For public buildings, the right of association/non-association should be defended and thus rest-rooms should be divided by gender

Everyone has them in their homes. How is this controversial? I suppose it will cost a bit more for walls and doors around each toilet, and the people that make urinals might have a hard time but a communal hand washing area and doors that lock on rooms instead of stalls should cover it.
