    No, not really… But multi-occupancy isn’t that different. Every stall has a lock, same as out houses.

      its about the efficiency of urinals versus the trauma of cross-traffic.

        Trauma of cross traffic? Don’t you pass the opposite gender in the hallway to both gendered bathrooms anyways? Does the presence of a sink really make it suddenly traumatizing to be within view of the opposite gender?

          I think it’s a psychological thing. At my job we have lockers for all the workers in the main bathroom. I don’t see it going neutral for that fact alone. But when you get into the bathroom it’s fine to relax and rip a fart or whatever. I’m assuming it’s the same in the women’s room. Or so my sisters tell me.
