    No offense but how thick do you have to be to make a door that is put in place solely to shield you from other humans, have a massive gap?

    It seriously boggles my mind.

      It’s not about doing it right for most. It’s about saving every dime you can. There are some that properly enclose stalls, like a nationally known Magic card seller in my locale.

      They deliberately do that in some public toilets to discourage people from hooking up in there.

          Oh, that. Because nobody gives a fuck about anybody’s rights in this country unless that person has a reasonable ability to sue.

            or a reasonable probability to draw a gun.

            The inside of a toilet stall. As you can see it has a massive design flaw from top to bottom. That seems to be the norm in the grand ol’ US of A.

              Ahhhhh now I get it, thanks. It was a hard perspective to catch up on without the explanation :)
