【男女平等?】東京に新たにできた公衆トイレが話題に

20 Mar 2023

Description

A public restroom in Tokyo’s Shibuya Ward has caused controversy online as it abolished a women-only area after the ward government rebuilt it in February despite keeping the men’s urinals. The toilet complex in the Hatagaya 3-chome district of the ward comprises two universal restroom stalls and a men’s area with urinals. The municipal Hatagaya public toilet complex stands in a corner of a residential area about 600 meters from the Keio New Line Hatagaya Station. It previously had a men’s area, a women’s restroom and a unisex, multipurpose restroom. Rebuilt, it now has two universal barrier-free restroom stalls that are equipped with a diaper-changing table and facilities for ostomates, among other features. The men’s area has remained, however. It has two urinals and lies separated from the universal toilets. The women’s area, meanwhile, is gone.
