Are women's toilets a feminist issue? In this episode, we speak to Eduardo Reyes, commissioning and features editor at the Law Society Gazette, about the Law Society's installation of women’s lavatories in 1923. We discuss what this tells us about how institutions responded to early women solicitors, and the importance of male allies in feminist campaigning.
