    The best compromise for neutrality and efficiency is to keep gender neutral stalls but also retain an area with urinals which will be much quicker for large numbers of men to pass through then using stalls, and also saves water.

    The other consideration would be that the stalls will need to be sufficiently screened that people in them don’t feel overlooked or vulnerable (I’m looking at you USA with your weird gappy stall building!).

      Um I think if we’re gonna have urinals, they need to have a divider to completely separate them from the rest of the bathroom area, just so some conservative women don’t freak out about the idea of men urinating outside of a closed stall.

      But yea the stalls need to have no gaps in them. I hate people just peeking in, especially when I was in k-12 public school.

        I’m a big fan of just getting rid of urinals altogether as a man, I’m choosing stalls every time anyway

        I went to a mixed bathroom in France and had to walk past bare backsides to get to a stall. I don’t want to see one guy’s ass let alone a whole row of them.

          In the US at least people don’t generally have their asses hanging out when using urinals.

            That’s not really a thing in Europe either. I saw it only once in my life, and that was back in school, from some third or second grader or something.
