Youve missed something. They built a new building with an exclusively male, an exclusively female and a mixed sex bathroom for the children of the school to choose from. It was done because its 2016 and they're a progressive school that cater to all gender identities.

In these times of little/no public funding. Could think of better things it could have been spent on.

Its a £12m building. Its gonna have more than 3 bathrooms so it makes complete sense to have at least one for those who may not identify as entirely male or entirely female.

I do take issue with that. What exactly do you mean by 'those that do not identify as entirely male or female' - does that mean they would use either depending on their mood, surely you have to identify with either one or the other. Sounds like having their cake and eat it to me.

Lol what. I mean bigender, agender, transgender, non-binary etc... it isn't just blue for boy, pink for girl. Theres a lot inbetween and a lot not on the scale who may have otherwise been forced to pick a side. (It isn't mood dependent, obviously)

And what percentage are we talking here 0.3% of pupils ?

in adulthood I heard on lbc the percentage is less than 1% so for kids who are just going thru puberty etc its just mental to try and guess, no?

I don't know about that, but I do know that no one has the right to force girls to share toilets with boys and be made to feel uncomfortable. Boys peeking on girls may not bother you, but it would bother many girls. I can understand how many parents would feel concerned about that.

I doubt it even costs much more though? How much does a partition wall cost? They probably didn't install more plumbing / toilets / sinks... Just divided them between three rooms instead of two

its irrelevant

withano said the magic word "binary" and as such the thread is now dead
