The low urinals are also not for children, they are wheelchair accessible urinals. This means there are a lot of smaller men’s rooms that only have wheelchair accessible toilets in them so any sort of assumption of exclusivity makes no sense because it would mean there are no toilets available for men who are not using a wheelchair.
You raise some good points. The op did say that they got the impression by the way people apologised when leaving the larger stall or didn't make eye contact, that they perhaps felt guilty so felt they had no reason to use it (PLEASE NOBODY QUOTE ME AGAIN SAYING ANYONE CAN USE THEM, I KNOW). I think they were fairly confident that person could just have easily used a different stall but you're right that it's hard to judge.
A cool restroom for the little ones is when I visited baby care at DHS. There is a private bathroom stall with the smallest toilet that is barely off the ground for young ones to go relieve themselves.
In the US this is not really true. They are built to meet the minimum fixture requirements based on the total occupant load of the building / space.
While you ventured off topic, lol, I LOVE all the medicine commercials that list the side effects and they say, “Do not take xxx if you are allergic to the active ingredients”…how do you know if you’re allergic if you’ve never taken it??? I went to a pharmaceutical symposium on my drug…I asked that question of the doctor and drug representatives…crickets…lolSorry as it's off-topic, but you are so right! When I was minutes away from delivering my eldest child, having taken not so much as a Tylenol, the delivery room nurse asked me to rate my pain on a scale of 1 to 10. All I could think to myself was, "as much as this hurts, it would hurt a lot more if someone was stabbing me in the eyeballs at the same time, and no one is doing that," so even though I felt like I was undergoing seppuku with a butter knife, I tentatively answered, "8."
On the other hand, I'm not sure of a better way for them to phrase the question.
I don't know if they still do it, but when I took the covid vaccine, they made me sit in quarantine for a while to make sure I didn't just immediately die.
So a man who isn’t handicapped just shouldn’t use the bathroom at many restaurants, stores and gas stations?
Member was referring to specific stall, you generalized by advising bathrooms
Yes, because there are many small men’s group restrooms that only have a wheelchair accessible urinal(s) and a wheelchair accessible stall.
But we are specifically talking about WDW and WDW only. The men's rooms at the parks have more than one stall. And how is waiting for those stalls in the men's room any different than waiting for them in the woman's? Other than there never seems to be a line for the men's room like there are for the woman's. And don't you think that a boy 8 and up are able to reach the urinals? I am talking about all if these school ages boys that seem to be in the woman's restroom now.
No comparison, Disney restrooms have both handicap and non handicap stalls as do most store and restaurants.
Yes, but you are expecting people to somehow pickup new social conventions about common things such as bathrooms simply because they are at WDW? That's asking a lot
Do you really in your heart of hearts believe that's what people are implying or the poster is saying? Do you really think that when the person you quoted said they don't use handicapped stalls themselves because they leave them for handicapped users that they were referring to restrooms so small they only have one stall? Do you think they want people urinating and defecating on the floor of small restrooms that only have one accessible stall thinking "Can't use those handicapped stalls, I'll just go on the floor as don't want to inconvenience or upset those disabled folks"?
I’m not pointing out that it is legal to use an accessible stall. Nobody seems to need that clarification.
Do you think they're using the term 'the handicapped stall' because it gets the point across, what term should everyone use in this thread to satisfy yourself as you seem to be confused or unhappy with their terminology? If this was a court case then it would be understandable, but it's not it's a discussion about the use of stalls that are larger. I don't think anyone who's posted on this thread hasn't known which these stalls are, however they're referred to? If we called them x stalls how does that change an individuals decision on the rights or wrongs of using them depending on their own moral values.
In the context of Walt Disney World, many (I’d even go as far to say most given the extent of renovations) of the group restrooms actually have two handicapped stalls. Every discussion of who should be afforded accommodation has some element of who actually qualifies as disabled enough to warrant accommodation. Calling the wheelchair accessible stall “the handicapped stall” is a reflection of the incorrect idea that accessibility is focused around wheelchair users.
I didn’t bring up Florida’s provision for a sink to discuss legality. I brought it up to highlight a circumstance that I don’t think is really being considered. It’s not a mobility specific accessibility feature. I assume you’d judge a healthy young adult with a young toddler using the wheelchair accessible stall while someone in a wheelchair was waiting if you learned that the changing table was inside the stall. The circumstances of the stall’s design changed your assessment of who should use it. The sink is not just intended for those with mobility issue so it too should change your assessment of who should and should not use the stall.
I know what you’re referring to. It can’t remember either. I think there’s more than one?
