    Why do you care who shits in the stall next to you?

    The only reason I care about another person being in the bathroom with me is that they sometimes think it’s okay to talk to me in there. It is not.

      Because boys/mens rooms dont get just stalls, they have to stand side by side and pee in a trough sometimes, privacy is forbidden

      IMO just make all bathrooms gender neutral and put stalls in all mens rooms

        Have you ever looked down to see what the person next to you is peeing with? I haven’t, nor do I know why I should care. I’m pissing next to them, not fucking them.

            Why should their delicate sensibilities be catered to?

            Also, if someone was checking out my penis while I was pissing, that would be highly inappropriate, especially in a school.

                You mean like putting a divider between urinals? Because that already exists as an option. Then no one can look at your precious little Mr. Happy.

                Trans men generally use a stall anyway, what with usually lacking what they need in order to use a urinal.

                And plenty of cis men also sit down in a stall if they need to urinate.

                So men do have that privacy. Even trans men. The problem here is that you don’t think trans men are men.

                  Sometimes, and even then its usually paltry as an actual intrusion-prevention-device> The funniest is when there is a mirror directly across from the urinals, dividers dont do shit then lol

                  Trans men generally use a stall anyway, what with usually lacking what they need in order to use a urinal.

                  I know OP is about trans, but Ive not mentioned anything regardging cis/trans because imo it doesnt matter. everyone should have the same right to privacy in a bathroom, therefore gender neutral bathrooms make a lot of sense.

                  And plenty of cis men also sit down in a stall if they need to urinate.

                  True! But there are inherently less stalls in a mens room BECAUSE of the urinals.

                  So men do have that privacy. Even trans men. The problem here is that you don’t think trans men are men.

                  Again, this has nothing to do with trans, youre shoving that into my comments.

                    I have no idea what your issue is if it isn’t about trans people in bathrooms. It sounds like you just want more stalls. Okay.

              It’s not about catering to them. It’s about preventing them from being fucking creeps.
