"Reports that Primark is reviewing the provision of same sex changing rooms after a poor lady twice had men open the curtain on her .. What the hell is going on here people ... ET where is this reported?" The woman who experienced this posted afterwards on Twitter and other people have also shared their experiences (it's not just Primark FWIW - Monsoon have had criticism too as they just have curtains). Primark posted this morning that they will review their changing rooms policies. | |||

"Ah, why am I not surprised? I don't really like the idea of mixed changing rooms. I've had too many experiences with men that make me view that in an uncomfortable way. I don't like mixed toilets either, and will only use them if they are single cubicle or fully enclosed cubicle in an open enough room that people would know if something happened. I wish I didn't feel this way, but men... *sigh*" | |||

Of course they are in the wrong but also shouldn't have been given the opportunity. How do you know they were in the wrong? Mebbe they thought the rooms were unoccupied." Possibly, possibly not. We probably can't know for sure. I sure this has happened in ladies changing rooms too. The chances are in those cases most likely innocent although likewise you can't rule out the actions of an inappropriate female sex pest. But I'm sure in the ladies changing room this would naturally be assumed as innocent. However there is in society for many reasons a real question over the credibility of the innocence of men and the default assumption this action was not innocent or at least very little benifit of the doubt. There is also a question of peoples right to feel safe and that females often don't feel safe around men. So regardless of innocent or not we have a practical issue of people's sense of safety. Now surely the point of gender neutral spaces is everyone of every gender can feel safe using the same facilities. While there is still issues and mistrust between people surely there needs to be a proper system of secure isolation when in a vulnerable state of undress (although in some ways I kind of feel that's contradictory to the concept of a shared environment). Therefore it's a really simple remedy of make each individual booth secured with a lockable door. Then everyone of any gender can change alone without fear of others. Although the concept of fear, privacy and what is decent is not universal so maybe a communal space for those who value speed over privacy could be offered in addition to individual secure booths. | |||

"Do we know if it was a perfectly innocent mistake by these men - was there anything to signify the cubicle was occupied and not just left with a curtain drawn? Has Evie fact checked this posters claims.. ? All that being said - the solution is simple - make it a lockable cubicle with a solid door. That will likely bring its own issues when Tom brings us reports of cples fucking in the lockable changing rooms - theres a few videos on here already if people shagging in locked changing cubicles. It will be all over the news!!! " | |||

".....so by doing the minimum and making it quite uncomfortable for people they are trying to discourage their use........method in their madness really " Today, I can pick up a garment and know how it would fit on me. But in the early days of my transition, I used to fear using the changing rooms in case anyone like Tom Essex would create hysteria just because he enjoys it. "What's going on guys?" Even tho I am only attracted to men and before my transition, I used to feel like a real perv in the men's changing rooms. So what to do? I would go women's clothes shopping in sales, buy loads of stuff I like. Take them home. Pour myself a nice G&T and indulge in dressing up. Trying new stuff with existing to create capsule outfits. Those that didn't fit I just took back and got a refund. The predators are in the minority. It's the hysteria that media drums up to sell papers or click-bait. | |||

Unfortunately though it's not hysteria because most women will have a story to tell of a man's unwanted or inappropriate behaviour. As far as I know this stiry has nothing to do with trans people or non binary people this was men opening the curtains of women changing. This is the concern in relation to communal spaces not that transpeople are the threat. Whilst I understand it must be exceptionally difficult for you we can't just put women and girls at risk and that is what will be happening. | |||

Well you can't deal with a predator until they have done something wrong so by having communal spaces where men can see women changing even if they don't want them too is beside the point isn't it. The problem is we are relying on businesses to do the decent thing and they are not therefore it puts particularly women at risk it's a fact. | |||

But it doesn't seem as though stores are introducing gender neutral/mixed sex changing rooms in a way that means safety, respect and comfort for all. I've seen photos of H&M gender neutral changing spaces. Curtains only and an 18 inch gap at the bottom. If they do that at my local H&M I will not use it and I'd be concerned for my teen daughter. John Lewis, M&S and Monsoon have all had criticism and complaints. Do you go swimming with mixed sex changing rooms? Yes they have doors but are generally open at the top and bottom. I've used family rooms with my kids in the past but it's been several years. " But in mixed changing rooms as was the question? Were you not concerned for your children then? | |||

"It wasn't a door it was a curtain. Perhaps if they had implemented proper mixed sex changing rooms with lockable doors this incident (and others) wouldn't have happened. This. Surely the issue is no doors, not gendered rooms I think the issue is no doors AND allowing men into a women's changing room It's not a women's changing room though. They've had unisex changing rooms since 2019. Then the issue is mixing sexes in changing rooms. Single sex was put in place for a reason and this is one of several incidents in Primark facilities. But mixed sex with doors is better For example, instead of 2 rooms with 5 stalls each Now you just have 10 stalls. So if the shop is extra busy with women, they don’t have to scram between only 5 stalls. While 5 others sit empty coz men don’t like shopping In theory.

"I'm laughing here ....... Most of the above comments are valid points.but you have all taken the viewpoint of the customer/customer experience ........for Primark it is a BUSINESS ....what is legal ,what is safe ,what it costs!!!! They have rock bottom prices Small margins and high volumes.....they already exchange 99% of clothing...they are educating the customer to try it at home and exchange it later.....its ALL ABOUT THE COST TO SELL......if they could realistically get away with no fitting rooms .....they would!!! " If a BUSINESS can't ensure customers are SAFE....they will lose BUSINESS. Not rocket science is it?! | |||
