I was not suggesting we should do that, but yes, we could. Unisex restrooms are not uncommon in some countries, including in workplaces.

You're conveniently choosing scenarios. I've been talking about locker rooms all this time.
You also dismissed my legitimate examples as anecdotal and therefore irrelevant. In the same manner I could dismiss your argument of women being raped by men, if I didn't have enough intellect to actually understand that those very small percentages of incidents are exactly why the rules are already in place.
I do see vaginas and penises as sexual organs... they're actually primary sexual organs.. biology classes, you see. I'm also from Europe and very open minded when it comes to nudity. But being a person that looks at things from different angles, I can see that overwhelming majority of popuplation does not want to see genitalia of the other sex in the spaces where they are supposed to be naked.
JAK has forgotten what pleasure the male appendage can give a female? Lol!
OK, so now you've clarified that you're talking about locker rooms, not rest rooms. There is a big difference. Obviously in an open locker room (which would generally be sports related) there is no privacy, but I was talking about rest rooms/bathrooms. I see no reason why a unisex restroom/bathroom would be a problem. An open locker room - yes.
As for vaginas and penises being sexual organs, of course they are, but a penis is a somewhat different organ in that it performs two functions - sexual and urination. Whether a penis is primarily a sexual organ, is debatable. Women most definitely do not urinate via their vagina. If you need a diagram let me know.
This discussion is ridiculous. My comments were purely in response to the transphobic posts that have been made. If people are so closed minded that they are unwilling to consider an alternative perspective, that's their choice. But I stand by my statement and belief, that women have little to fear from transgender women.
Fascinating insight into a few of the posters here - from way back in the dark ages.
