New App Helps Transgender, ‘Gender Nonconforming Individuals’ Find Restrooms

A new website is offering an app to help transgender and other “gender nonconforming individuals” find “safe restroom access” across the United States of America.

 

Refugerestrooms.org was created to replace the now defunct website, Safe2Pee, according to its website.

 

“REFUGE is a web application that seeks to provide safe restroom access for transgender, intersex, and gender nonconforming individuals,” the “website stated. “When the Safe2Pee website passed out of functionality it left a hole in our hearts.

 

“REFUGE picks up the torch where Safe2Pee left off and makes the valuable resource available to those who find themselves in need of a place to pee safely once again,” it stated. “Users can search for restrooms by proximity to a search location, add new restroom listings, as well as comment and rate existing listings.

 

“We seek to create a community focused not only on finding existing safe restroom access but also looking forward [sic] and participating in restroom advocacy for transgender, intersex, and gender nonconforming folk,” the website stated.

 

The website is linked to a New York Times article published on Nov. 5 that states access to bathrooms is the “latest civil rights issue” for the homosexual rights movement.
