(21,691 posts)Many, especially those in older buildings, have common showers without stalls and locker/changing areas without privacy - everyone undresses/dresses in full view of others. When I was in school, one could opt out of showering, but changing in and out of gym uniforms was not optional. Schools with that sort of locker/shower arrangements would benefit from supervision, no matter is trans students are present or not. It's not about pimples (hint, women don't get breast pimples); it's about bullying.
Why no one said anything about you being in a handicap stall with your wheelchair-bound mother is because you were in a handicap stall with your wheelchair-bound mother. If you'd been loitering in the Ladies sans a disabled woman or a very young girl, I'm sure you would have gotten a few questions if not an escort from Security.
