All-gender work bathrooms

Anonymous
At our old work building, we had all-gender, men, and women's bathrooms. We had the men's and women's already and then, over time, some bathrooms were converted to all-gender. In our new building, we only have all-gender. In theory, I love this inclusivity and want to be inclusive to trans folks and all gender identities. In practice, women are finding that the men (and it's obviously the men) leave the bathroom really gross and a lot of the women are just avoiding the bathrooms in general. We've tried signs and reminders from supervisors but the problem persists. Any experience with this, ideas, or suggestions?

A manager needs to tell people (men) that if they continue leaving the bathroom a mess, they will have to clean it.

Or, just put pieces of paper on the outside of specific stalls - one for people who don't leave a mess, and one for people who are slobs.

Ally Mcbeal!

But honestly women who hover can make as much as mess.

What exactly do they do? Do the toilets not flush? Are they peeing on seat?

Get automated toilet seats that go up after 5 seconds

This would be an issue for regular gendered bathrooms too, clearly. If the men at your office can't use a bathroom correctly, the option is to hire more/frequent cleaners.

And who will monitor that, the women?

Like with stalls open on the top and bottom? Absolutely not. I would throw a fit if they did that. Perfectly happy to have trans women in the women’s room but not all gender.

Ugh. Are they individual private rooms with doors, or multiple stalls and sinks?

Good reason to separate bathrooms by sex.

Men are disgusting in the bathroom. Is that supposed to be news to anyone?

Honestly I would quit if I had to share a bathroom with men during a workday. It would be a pretty easy decision actually.
