Bengaluru Airport has a changing room for diapers in the men’s restroom and everyone loves it
A tweet celebrating the presence of a changing room in the men’s toilets at Bengaluru airport is going viral. Even today, locker rooms are mostly attached to women’s bathrooms as they are only supposed to change the baby’s diaper. However, Bengaluru Airport has taken a step in the right direction by including her in the men’s section as well.
“Must be celebrated. Spotted in a men’s restroom at @BLRAirport – a diaper changing station. Childcare is not just the responsibility of women.

“It’s great to see, so many places only have it in the women’s toilets. It should either be in a place where it’s accessible to both, i.e. outside the gender-specific toilets or both.

“After going through nightmarish experiences changing diapers over the years for two kids in the men’s bathroom with little or no support to perform the feat, I’m just glad that phase is over. It’s such a welcome move, but sadly it won’t happen on a large scale.
