    You know outside of the US most countries bathrooms stalls actually work / fit / don’t have peekaboo gaps?

        Al I thought this was a reference to the Greenland MP (I think?) I heard on NPR this morning. He was asked if he thinks the US Government is fascist and he said “if you see a piece of wood with hinges on it, you start to ask if its a door” or something like that

      In a lot of public stalls in Japan, the outer end of the door is rounded. And the wall it connects to when closed is concaved. So even though there’s a gap to allow the door to open and close freely, there no direct line of sight.

      Peekaboo gaps exist outside the states don’t gaslight our readers. Urinals in Heathrow are just a fucking trough you’re supposed to piss in like you’re at a Red Sox game.

      Public restrooms in Britain at least aren’t any more enlightened than those in the States

        Apologies if you feel I was gaslighting.

        I’ve never experienced Heathrow so can’t comment.

        I would argue from ‘my’ experience UK bathroom’s seem more enlightened but your own experience may vary.
