Thai school gets transvestite bathrooms

For teen boys who prefer to dress as girls at one rural high school in Thailand, taking a bathroom break no longer means choosing between "male" and "female" restrooms. There's now a "transvestite toilet."

The Kampang School in northeastern Thailand conducted a survey last term that showed more than 200 of the school's 2,600 students considered themselves transgender, said school director Sitisak Sumontha.

So, when classes resumed in May, the school unveiled a unisex restroom designated by a human figure split in half _ part man in blue and part woman in red. Below it are the words "Transvestite Toilet."

Three transgender students praised the new restroom as they plucked their eyebrows and applied face powder in front of the mirror outside the stalls.

Vichai Sangsakul commented,

I'm so happy about this. It looks bad going to female restrooms. What would other people think?

School director Sitisak Sumontha said,

These students want to be able to go to the restroom in peace without fear of being watched, laughed at or groped.
