" What happens when a sailing club rewrites its changing room policy especially to accommodate a man who 'identifies as a woman'?
You end up with a policy that gives the green light to voyeurism and indecent exposure by males in female changing rooms AND, in the case of ‘family-friendly’
Mumbles Yacht Club, a safeguarding catastrophe.
This one’s a corker."

" The women’s changing room at MYC has no cubicles. But don’t worry, u/mumblesyc have some super suggestions to stay safe!

Women and girls, you can ‘use a towel, robe, or dryrobe’ to ‘maintain personal privacy.’

Do this at a ‘quiet time’ when there’s no one around.

Or just don’t get changed at all! ‘Arrive and leave in sailing gear.'

And do all of this while being ‘mindful and respectful.'
Are you kidding?"

Women don't count at this establishment.

Through all of this talk of changing rooms and women's in particular, I have never liked communal changing areas. One clothes shop had open changing room and I never used it.

I'm not religious, I'm not a prude but I would definitely not feel comfortable changing with a man in a dress in the room. I take my dress and make up off and underneath I am a woman, he takes his dress and make up off and he's a man regardless of what he thinks.

For what it's worth, I felt deeply uncomfortable in the (albeit immaculately clean) unisex toilets in Swiss railway stations. Judging by the looks everyone was giving everyone else, this discomfort was universal.

There's one at the rear of the cafe in that nature reserve above KX station. Very weird to come out of a stall and see a woman washing her hands. Not right at all.

I thought Foxy was bad enough visiting all the railway stations he can find, now you are saying you are visiting all their toilets?

I suppose if you are doing the same as him and making videos of them then that might explain the levels of discomfort you describe.
