Don’t Question The Abundance Of Unisex Toilets

Sweden is among the countries taking a lead in equality between sexes. In Sweden, both father and mother are entitled to share 480 days or 16 months of paid parental leave, and the man is entitled to at least 90 days that cannot be transferred to the woman. Fathers who do not take their share of the leave to spend time raising their infant children are frowned upon. In same-sex relationships, both parents are entitled to the same rights.

When you visit Sweden, you’ll also notice a number of unisex toilets; these bathrooms represent equality and acceptance of all genders, and everyone should feel comfortable using these facilities. Gay rights have long been addressed, and everyone is accepted regardless of sexual preference. In fact, the official dictionary of the Swedish language was updated in 2015 to include a gender-neutral pronoun. “Hen” was added to refer to a person without revealing one’s gender identity.
