      I’ve heard reasons for it like "women’s bathroom needs places to dispose of pads/tampons but, like, it’s a box on the wall. Put one in both.

      Also heard reasons along the lines of “men are faster at using the bathroom so why should we need to share with women” (even though with single bathrooms the washing your hands part is the time bottleneck, not the peeing part) or just general disgust at the idea of sharing a bathroom with the other gender (have heard it from both genders).

        Yeah duuuuh. Women leave their claw marks everywhere, blood splatter, and oh my god throw that tampon to the trashcan it’s literally there for that reason!

        But also yeah duuuh, men take personal offence at the idea of not pissing all around the stall, and washing hands has to include splattering water, somehow, behind the stall. Also never manages to drop the paper towel to bin.

        We are all terrible lil shits <3

        Isn’t it just a trash can? Why does it need to be on the wall?

        It doesn’t really matter ultimately, but it takes me like 10 seconds to wash my hands. Peeing almost always takes longer.

        No most men I know don’t wash their hands or if they do they just hold it under the tap for 2 seconds without any soap or anything
