Near me there's a women's bathroom which was built on land bought by a group of local women. Farmers would come in and go to the pub, which women weren't allowed in. They had no access to bathrooms, and had to just wait for their husbands. So they bought land and built some rooms which included bathrooms. Many public women's bathrooms started like this. Public bathrooms were in men-only spaces and women were disallowed, so women created their own.
