The purpose??? PRIVACY and SAFETY!!! See what I mean, men have no moral compass of this. Alot can be told by a society, ON HOW IT TREATS THEIR WOMEN!!! This society clearly has lost its mind. Clearly you have no children, daughters, grandaughters, neices, little nephews needing help in the bathroom or you would never ask such a question. Women deserve to be safe and have privacy in a restroom. Not feel fear of a social experiment walking through the door to push an agenda through!
