Bathroom stall doors without hooks are evil.
I didn't even think guys would notice this. How sexist of me.
Bathroom stall doors without hooks are evil.
But crime-free! Or whatever. That is the rationale, isn't it? At least in women's rooms, there are said to be roving bands of thieves who will reach over the door and steal your purse off the hook, while your pants are down so you can't get them. Or something.
It's sad that it's the NYCers who brought this up, because it had never occurred to me as a potential problem.
Maybe I'm revealing a pattern of just not thinking about bathroom stall door hooks. God, I hate being willfully ignorant. Noooooooo!!!!
Got a problem with that, lady?
No. I'm pretty entertained by it though.
What do you need that much room for?
I once commandeered the handicapped stall at a party after too many shots of tequila. It's roominess meant that I became a stop on the party tour. At one point I looked up from leaning over the toilet and the were four people in there, hanging out with me.

That's the logic I heard in my small town. I'm sure it
has
happened, but it just seems so hassle-laden as far as thefts go.
Can we all agree that bathroom stalls without doors are evil?
I haven't seen those since elementary school. That was just horrible.
I don't think I get it. Why would you need to say something? Why not just wait? I do kind of think not answering is iffy. (I'm presuming they asking if it is in fact occupado?)
No one waits, there's another bathroom about 50 ft away. And the comments are usually something like "Oh, there's someone in here" without a questioning tone of voice. You can see feet under the stall door from the entrance. It seems like excessive chattiness to me, but I am at the other extreme.

Oh, yes. Even worse was when I was the first in my 5th-grade class to get her period, and had to deal with pads, etc., in full view of anyone else in that bathroom. Yuck.
I always hang my purse on the hook. I figure the chance of encountering the semi-mythical over-the-door purse thief is tiny and the chance of something disgusting getting on my purse if I put it on the floor is large.
