Not in secondary, but yes in primary. Students get more inquisitive as they get older.

I think that people should be able to go into the bathroom of the gender that they identify with, so if that was the case we wouldn't need gender neutral ones, but I can see the benefits of having them.

Yes there should be, it's a need.

I just think it should be separate because it could make some people feel very uncomfortable. I think if it's a transgender issue that person needs to identify with a gender and should be allowed to use what bathroom they identify as.
