    Coed bathrooms at college seemed to work pretty well, and even improved privacy in some ways.

    • everyone washed their hands. Nothing like peer pressure to encourage that
    • stalls had walls and doors
    • urinals had little privacy walls line so many no longer do

    So if I’m using a urinal and someone walked in, regardless who they were, all they see is some guy standing there. If someone uses a stall, regardless of who they were , I can probably tell that it’s occupied and maybe judge them for their shoes, but that’s it. What’s the problem?

      We had mixed gender bathrooms in highschool, and they were fantastic. Clean, proper bathrooms, not stalls, and the students were responsible for cleaning them + the school weekly, so nobody ever trashed them. (There were two half-hour cleaning sessions each week, with some supplimental janitor help to keep things running smoothly)

      Urinals are meant to be used standing. If you piss against the wall at an angle, it won’t mess up the place as much. I was talking about the porcelain throne.
