 | Sweden's Sigtuna Museum has made a stir, by adding a gender neutral sign to its toilets.* “It's interesting to use this symbol especially at a museum with historical exhibitions like Sigtuna because it's important to understand that LGBT has existed in all times, it's not something that was invented in Los Angeles in the 1980s. It would be interesting if the sign could perhaps make visitors think about questions such as 'what was it like to be gay in the Viking Age or transgender in the 1500s?'” said Hedengren.

*Which in no way changes who uses which toilets, as many public toilets in Sweden are unisex, so everyone enters the same room, and then just chooses which available cubicle to use.
