Inclusive Bathroom Sign!

A GENDER-NEUTRAL BATHROOM SIGN AND WHY WE NEED IT

Did you know that when choosing a bathroom to use in a place where there are only "boys" and "girls" bathrooms can be very stressful for gender non-conforming people? Many people that don't have a binary gender can feel uncomfortable and out of place using the bathroom in a place where there are only binary bathrooms. In addition, people are often disturbed by others who assume their gender and then decide to butt in, even though they don't actually know a person's gender just by looking at them. In addition, some people have bathroom signs that tell you how you shouldn't assume someone's gender, but because most of the time they are so unnoticeable, they are often passed by and left unread. This bathroom sign for those places where it is likely that most gender-non-conforming people will feel pressured can solve all those problems. Since it is bright and noticeable, more and more people will stop by to look at it. The words are quick and concise, but portray the main idea. In addition, it is in the shape of a hexagon, which is the shape of a stop sign so more people will instinctively look at it.

There are multiple ways you can make this. You can make it digitally and then print it on a vinyl sticker printer. You can also make a sign using whatever your standard sign-making procedure is, or you can even draw it! In this step-by-step, we will follow the method of digitally printing it. Here are the materials that you need:

1. A vinyl sticker printer
2. Adobe illustrator, Adobe photoshop, or some other online platform that you can transfer to a vinyl sticker printer.

This step-by-step will be quick and easy, as long as you have the required technology.

First, you must make the sign on whatever platform you wish. This sign has a certain shape and texture, but you can also play around with shapes, borders, and even text, if you want.

Once you've finished, print the sign on the vinyl sticker printer. Once it has been printed out, stick it near a bathroom where people will see it! You probably want to stick this near or on the door- that way, when people walk inside, they will see it and read it.

That's all! Thank you, and make sure to be inclusive and not assume things upon first sight.
