finally the UK education system teaches the truth.

That the country is run by vile out of touch old cunts who don't give a shit about people.

Disgusting transphobia. This is what happens when you put bigots in charge of human rights organisations.

The question is rather if brits will end demagogue politics. Putting anyone else than themselves is the problem.

Washrooms are such an odd obsession. Just make single occupancy toilets , it’s more space efficient

While I do hold the opinion that gender neutral, individually lockable toilet rooms with a mirror and a washbasin etc are the ideal future proof approach for bathrooms pretty much everywhere, I must acknowledge that it is a pretty big undertaking to retrofit existing bathroom facilities into that design.

Though why everyone seems so eager to just throw trans folks to the dogs instead is beyond me.

I sincerely hope every FTM uses every opportunity to go into public ladies toilets, belching, farting and speaking to the other occupants in their most practiced deep voice.

Added bonus if you stand in the cubicle and use your hard-earned, shiny new dong and accidentally piss on the seat.

This isn't it. The new guidance for adults gives places the right to refuse trans people from accessing the spaces that match their agab as well as excluding them from sources that match their real gender. The UK is rapidly forcing trans people into segregated 3rd spaces which literally don't exist. Essentially forcing us out of public life altogether.

Plus as another commenter mentioned, this would just put them in more danger if they did what you suggested.

As funny as that sounds in highlighting the hypocrisy of it all, it opens them up to harassment and verbal or physical abuse from phobes.
