Restrooms don’t need to be gendered in the first place if they give you some damn privacy.
It’s not like I’m checking what that guy in the next stall is doin’. Hell I think I’m in heaven when I go to a place that has doors that go to the floor.
The gold standard in my experience is Sweden. They probably do the same thing in other countries, but that’s the place I have visited.
Instead of having a single big open men’s room with 2-3 toilets and a couple sinks, next to a single big open ladies’ room with a similar layout, there is a short hallway with four doors on each side. Behind each door is a small restroom with its own toilet and sink. I think they each had a urinal too.
It is superior in every single way except maybe for initial construction cost. It has a higher number of toilets which are all gender neutral, on top of actual privacy and there not being a “bad time” to go if it’s busy.
It makes total sense if you give a shit about people and aren’t trying to penny pinch construction costs while making the facilities user-hostile so that peons don’t spend too much time in there.

A local restaurant just set up its reno’d bathrooms like this. Like a private oasis
