In reply to the discussion: Businesses will now be forced to post signs announcing they serve transgender customers in Tennessee [View all]GulfCoast66
(11,949 posts)53. I've been to France 5 times. Multiple weeks at a time.
While Ive seen the scenario you present a few times it is far from common, in my experience.
Too many really old buildings to reconstruct. Even in Airports there are men and Womens restrooms.
But Im not thinking the French gave a shit who went in. Because, as you say, even in mens restrooms the stalls were their own little rooms. Although the mens restrooms have urinals. But there are often women in there cleaning while you took a piss.
Ive used urinals in small towns that were pretty much open except for a wall blocking my mid-body. But my legs and head were in full view. They are just not uptight about taking a piss.
