As you can see in the video, there is a glass in front of the men's urinal in the bathroom. Through the glass, you can see many ladies arranging clothes in front of the mirror on the other side of the sink. In the comment area, many netizens shouted "the design is disgusting" and "a group of people in front can't go to the toilet at all", and they all said that they couldn't stand this design.

Men in a bar in Guilin can see the washstand in the ladies' room when they go to the toilet.

On June 4th, 65438+ 10/KLOC-0, the reporter contacted the Guilin Municipal Market Supervision Administration, and its staff said that they had not received any relevant clues before. After verifying the situation, if it is true, they will deal with it.

"One mirror, one mirror" is not a design mystery, but a double mirror. According to public information, the double-sided mirror is actually the same structure as the ordinary mirror, both of which are transparent glass and coated with metal. The difference between them lies in the coating. Ordinary mirror coating is basically opaque, and the light will be reflected back by the coating after penetrating the glass, so that people can see their own mirror image. The coating of the double mirror is thinner and translucent, and its coating can also reflect light, but there will still be 1/3 light penetrating the coating and leaking to the other side. When the brightness of two sides of a double mirror is different, the intensity of reflected light in the bright place is weak, so that people standing in the bright place can only see their own mirror image, while people in the dark can see the opposite side, so the double mirror is like a piece of glass.

The reporter noticed that there are many ways to decorate this "double mirror" toilet. According to media reports, as early as 20 16, a landlord in Haidian District, Beijing installed a double mirror in the bathroom and was reported by a female tenant. 20 18 a bar in Beijing was reported to have installed a double mirror in the men's toilet, and then the bar involved issued an apology. 202 1 a bar in Guangzhou, Guangdong province was exposed, and the installation of double mirrors in the VIP box sink caused controversy.

The Design Standard for Urban Public Toilets stipulates that the plane design of public toilets should be divided into toilet room, urinal room and bathroom room, and each room should have independent functions. The urinal should not be set in the open air. Yin and Yang channels should be set at the entrance of the bathroom to block the walls or objects. The document stipulates that the urinal station should have partitions, but it does not say whether glass can be installed on the urinal wall.

However, this "double mirror" toilet decoration is still suspected of infringing on the privacy of others.

According to the provisions of the Civil Code, no organization or individual may infringe upon others' right to privacy by spying, harassing, revealing or making public. The Law on the Protection of Women's Rights and Interests also clearly points out that women's personal rights such as privacy are protected by law. It is forbidden to degrade and damage women's personality through mass media or other means.

For similar cases, Chen Shanni, a lawyer of Beijing Lunwende Law Firm, said in an interview with the media that the washstand outside the toilet is usually hidden in the space. According to the second paragraph of Article 1032 of the General Principles of Civil Law, privacy is the private space, private activities and private information that natural people live peacefully and do not want to be known by others. Double-sided glass is installed on the outside of the toilet in the bar, which gives people the wrong information of semi-closed environment, which makes people unconsciously expose their privacy and violate their privacy to some extent.

Fu Jian, director of Henan Jinze Law Firm, said that the behavior of merchants installing double mirrors in toilets provided places and convenience for voyeurs, which had violated the privacy of toilet users. At the same time, according to the provisions of the Law on Public Security Administration Punishment, anyone who peeks at others' privacy shall be subject to administrative punishment according to law.

"The design and layout of the bathroom in the video is unreasonable, which violates public order and good customs." Fu Jian suggested that businesses should carry out rectification, and the health administrative department can impose administrative penalties on acts that violate the urban management measures.

If the customer finds this situation and feels uncomfortable, Fu Jian suggests taking relevant measures to protect rights: "First, the customer can ask the business to rectify. Because the design and layout of the bathroom are not standardized, customers can report the situation to the market supervision department. If the right to privacy is violated, they can also complain to the consumer association, or keep evidence to bring a lawsuit to the court. "
