Definition[edit | edit source]
Toilet segregation refers to a system where individuals are separated based on their gender or sex when using public restrooms or toilets. This practice is typically enforced through the existence of separate male and female facilities.
The purpose of toilet segregation is to provide privacy, safety, and convenience to individuals in public spaces. It is believed to maintain a sense of modesty and comfort, as well as address any concerns related to potential harassment or inappropriate behavior.
In many places, toilet segregation is legally mandated or socially accepted. However, it is important to note that some individuals may not conform to traditional gender binaries, identifying as non-binary, transgender, or gender non-conforming. These individuals may face challenges or discomfort when using gender-segregated restrooms, leading to discussions on the need for inclusive and non-discriminatory restroom facilities.
