Bathroom stalls.

I hate those bathroom stalls where one can see the feet; the doors never fit together correctly either so you have slivers of voyeurism.

Why can't they still make full-length bathroom stalls like in the past?

The San Francisco Barneys is one of the few modern places which has civilized bathrooms. Whether or not homosexual hanky-panky goes in there is not my concern. Indeed, if the chief criticism of the full-length stalls is that they are conducive for sexual get-togethers, I say if they don't leave a mess, go for it.

Also, one can bring one's son or daughter in there without Lafont being offended.

I don't get it either. I always thought it was so security guards could easily see if anyone was hiding or dead.

In Europe I like those glass doors that turn frosty when you close them.

Okay, I'll be honest, I've been quite pee shy since 5th grade so it's always been easier for me to use the stall in public rather than the urinal. I don't mind the holes on the bottom so much as the holes on the top. In high school, kids always filled cups with water from the sink and threw it over. It never happened to me, but I did get nervous when a group of kids walked in, talking obnoxiously loud and not even using the toilet. That brings me to my next point, why do people always go to the restroom in groups? And most of them don't even use it. Just seems dirty to me. I also remember my awkward stance when using the stall. I call it my "trying not to step in piss" stance!

Another important point is that the Larry Craigs of the world can't impose their wide-stances on everybody.

I was at a bar tonight, in which the bathroom consisted of a toilet and a urinal placed five inches from each other. For someone who already is bladder shy (like me) this makes pissing impossible. Absolutely annoying.

this is also why when I'm travelling and I have to make a pitstop I always look for the big and older hotels, in all probability they still have those marble walled toilets with full sized doors.

Yes, those marble walled stalls are lovely--like little rooms.

The Lan Club in Beijing has very nice bathrooms. They are literally rooms. The walls are also completely mirrored so it's ideal for the naughty.

Disagree. Full-length stalls in Europe are always disgusting and filthy because they can't mop well at the corners. I don't care if someone sees my feet as long as it's clean.

i probably told this story but i was at a funeral, right? i had to use the bathroom in the church after the service and i walked in on a guy using the bathroom (standing, urinating into the toilet) he asked me if i had to poop or pee; i indicated the latter he encouraged me to share the toilet with him but i had been well trained to NEVER CROSS STREAMS i backed away and just let my teeth float i did run into the guy outside and had to do the pee-pee dance while my friend talked to his friend awkward
