Sorry to tell you Mark that those toilet identifiers are still sexist. Perhaps we should work towards toilets that are just toilets rather than being for men or for women - just like at home or on the aeroplane.

  Hi, toilet-door admirers.


  Part of 2016 KK is gender inclusivity. 
  This article tells of the cunning plans for designing non-sexist toilet identifiers.
