The Spaces Between





Intimate spaces like bathrooms are separated into male and female spaces.

Physical spaces like clothing stores separate men's and women's clothes while they share the same space.

Theoretical spaces like traditionally gendered occupations are now inclusive of all genders.

Society and manufacturers forced these gendered separations such as the bathroom, yet as society moves forward we see lines being crossed as clothing now occupies the same space and women move into male dominated occupations.
