Issue: Should school toilets be open to the community?
Background to raising the issue: When renovating a dilapidated school building, efforts are under consideration to open the toilets to the community so that residents can use them freely. While some have welcomed the school as an “open school,” others have raised concerns that it could easily lead to crime. On Surfvote, we wrote down the reasons for and against the opening of school toilets to the community, and conducted an opinion poll.

School toilets should be open to the community
It may be safer not to open it to the public, but I think taking proper measures and taking a step forward will lead to the unification of the community. It’s easy not to. (Number of supporters: 16) School toilets should not be open to the community
It is out of the question to put the entire student at risk for the sake of “personal gain” that requires the use of toilets. If we are to take into consideration the local community, we should talk about full opening up rather than the use of toilets. (Number of endorsements: 30)

Whether or not school toilets should be open to the community depends on the design of the school grounds.
The school building with children and the toilets that can be opened are separated to some extent, and security guards were originally assigned. This is because I don’t think it’s an idea to completely deny if it matches the desire to promote exchange between the community and the school. (Number of supporters: 16)

I remember reading an article saying that there are surprisingly many people who have mental or physical problems with excretion that are difficult to imagine for healthy people, and that there is a lack of infrastructure except in the city center. ing. When considering how to utilize the infrastructure of schools, wouldn’t it be a good idea to stand by the weak? I wonder if the design can handle malicious cases, and if so, wouldn’t it be nice?
