    Hi Waze community!

    I have a few friends in the trans community and it really bothers me to see them struggle with basic necessities like using a public restroom. This would be a beneficial feature for app users to categorize what kind of bathrooms that any public buildings have (gas stations, restaurants, stores, etc) with just a bit more detail, that way people know where to go - without any hassle from the public with contrary views.

    I'm not sure the best way to do it, especially as some waze users may not be keen on trans friendly bathrooms. So there would have to be emphasis on the 'neutral but informative' aspect of this feature.
    Maybe when users do a search of a place where businesses are listed as having a restroom, there could be color code it or have a distinct icon that distinguishes what / where is what. For example,

    green: any gender welcome, non specific 'requirements', or just unisex bathroom-s.
    red: gender specific requirements.
    grey: neutral or unknown, the particular bathroom hasn't been categorized by a waze visitor or business yet.

    Or maybe even something as simple as users just listing whether public restrooms are unisex or not. Thank you for reading!
