A Welsh town prevents people from having sex in toilets

Porthcawl, a Welsh town, plans to install public toilets with measures to prevent people from having sex inside, including a high-pitch alarm, doors opening automatically, and a chilly spray of water.

Movement sensors inside the toilets will respond to “violent” activity, while weight sensors will be installed to detect the entrance of more than one person, triggering the deterrent measures. The toilets have also been designed to prevent rough sleepers from taking shelter inside: If a user remains in the toilet for too long, a warning message will play, while the lights and heating will switch off.

The planning documents also include a high-pressure floor and wall washer, which could activate after every use of the toilet. An automated 10-minute “deep clean” process will take place every night.

The toilets have already come under criticism on social media, however, with some calling them cruel and suggesting they could “humiliate” users. For example, overweight people could be perceived as two by the weight sensor, but also disabled people could have problems if assisted by another person in the toilet.
