Privacy Concerns Over Theme Park's Two-Way Mirror

A theme park in Thailand has sparked a social media storm over a two-way mirror installation in the men's toilets. Located at Dream World in Pathum Thani, the mirror allows men using urinals to view women and children on the other side, while those outside see only their reflections. Initially installed in 2019 as a "fun" feature, the mirror recently resurfaced in the spotlight as users expressed outrage at its insensitivity.

 

The viral post by Internet Hall of Fame on X/Twitter garnered over 11 million views, drawing widespread condemnation and calls for removal. Critics labelled the mirror as "misogynistic" and "degrading," with many voicing concern over privacy violations. Comments poured in, likening the situation to a digital privacy invasion and questioning the ethical standards of those responsible for its installation.

 

 

 

Despite clear backlash, Operations Director Thawat Yamkasem defended the novelty feature in 2019, claiming it offers guests a new amusement experience. However, the social media uproar suggests customers are not amused, raising serious privacy concerns.

 

Two-way mirrors, known for reflecting light from the brighter side while allowing transparency from the darker side, create the unsettling effect observed at Dream World. The fate of the controversial mirror is uncertain, yet the public's vehement response may push for its removal. The discussion highlights broader implications regarding design choices and respect for privacy in public spaces, reported The Thaiger.

This has been there for years. 

 

You don't have to use it, plenty of other toilets around. This is just a little gimmick / laugh.

Let me guess, the number of these vehement responses might number in the 10s, when compared to the 10s of millions who don't care.  Let's hope the Operations Director doesn't remove it to appease the tiny minority.  Reminds me of all the wokeism and DEI; let's pander to the minority!

Whilst women will likely think that this isn't the place where the big knobs hang out.😆

Hahahaha genius I wouldn't be that worried about the guys in the toilet taking a leak it's the girls in the photo trying to get a close up view that I'd be concerned about

Women pee in cubicles. Didn't you know that? The only view that the men get is of them at the wash basins.

When did you last see a man masturbating in a public toilet? (perhaps you'd better not answer that!)

Sounds similar to the toilets in Tilac.

I don’t really care for an audience when I’m taking a piss. They should be more concerned about the women trying to get a look in. 

[Tailwagsdog]

Good idea, allows me to keep an eye on my kids, too many weirdos running around.

Who cannot read?  Women cannot be viewed in the toilets, no one can be but those outside can be seen from inside that mens toilet.

You wouldn't have an audience if you were using that facility.  What's there to worry about if women are looking in a mirror?
