One Thai temple trying to be a bit more progressive missed the mark in relation to gender neutral restrooms. Instead, they designated restrooms for homosexual men and lesbian women.
A picture of toilet sign saying ห้องน้ำตุ๊ด which means “Gay Toilet”’ and ห้องน้ำทอม which means “Tomboy Toilet” went viral among Thai netizens. The signal and bathroom are located at Sarikaram Temple in Trang province.
The monk had good intentions. He mentioned that the temple welcomes people of all gender identities and he desires them to really feel comfortable, and not confused, when selecting which toilet to go to.
The monk also added that it has been six years for the reason that bathrooms were constructed, and there are lots of LGBTQ+ visitors using them. Explode have even gathered and are available again supporting the temple by cleansing or doing other group service as they noticed that the temple supported them. Thai netizens comment in a fun and positive means, saying that a minimal of it is a good start..
