Again, maybe I’m just not understanding how this works, but lavatory stalls in my country have a large enough gap at the top and bottom that someone could force their way in if they were really determined. (I think it’s for medical emergencies, because creepy gropers in the bathroom aren’t a problem over here)
They mean like you walk up to a public stall, you see it’s empty (because it’s see through glass), so you know it’s safe to go in. You lock the door when you go in and it turns opaque so nobody can see you pooping.
Edit: I found a video of what they are talking about. Apparently it’s also so that you know the bathroom is clean and not gross so you aren’t discouraged from using it. Pretty neat. https://youtu.be/KGoKsv2omBU?si=F0ig6oFHtavzZY9z
But…can’t creeps just lock the door themselves and then unlock it when someone else enters the bathroom? I’m not sure I understand how this works.
Someone else can’t enter if it’s locked.

Ah, I see now, I thought this was a group of stalls in a larger toilet, not separate toilets. It does seem pretty neat.
