    The lack toilets in every imaginable place is insultingly ableist and very degrading. It’s like people are ashamed we’re fucking people and need to piss and shit all the time. And then the cops have the gull to threaten me with fines when I take a leak under a tree in a park. You literally treat dogs better than people.

      At first I though “surely this is about the US”, but no, even in the US at least some states require public bathrooms in all coffee shops, cafe, restaurants etc. Some states have exceptions depending on the size of the establishment and some states do not have this regulation at all.

      I also just checked Dutch and some other countries’ laws. Public bathrooms are required for new establishments with no exceptions. I have not found a EU-wide regulation though.

        Vancouver, B.C. Canada Checking in, bathrooms are only required if you have indoor seating, so a lot of places didnt reinstall their tables post pandemic, and thus kept their washrooms closed
