I still don’t want to touch a handle where it’s guaranteed that people who just took a shit without washing their hands have touched, even if I’m about to wash my hands right after.
Comment on Interesting. It's a constant reminder

Here’s an idea:
The sinks should be outside the bathroom.
That way, you can wash your hands after touching the dirty door, and everyone in the hallway can see if you don’t wash your hands.

Cause they trap disabled people inside the bathroom.

Which can happen to some anyway if they don’t have a powered door opener.

OK but just because you put a foot handle on a door doesn’t mean you can’t have a normal handle as well. Just put them both on the door.
Or am I missing something?

That…makes sense to me. Not only would you need one set of sinks, you wouldn’t need to go into the shit and piss room if you just want to wash your hands.

Are the doors even necessary? Just put a sharp left turn tiny hallway for privacy, blocks out everything but sound - most public bathrooms have them already

You’ve never heard the sounds my coworker makes on the toilet.

The sound is the worst part, I wish the bathroom in my office had music or something so I don’t have to hear every detail of whomever is disemboweling themselves in the next stall over.

They should play fake fart noises

The smell tho.
Plus school bathrooms tend to be dirty.

More airflow via the open entrance could help with the smell
Shapillon@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
It could.
But then I’d rather have my highschool toilets which had a direct outside access. They weren’t heated and thus were cold in winter but the smell was indeed ok.
