Yes. What's up with that!!! There is a local pub I go to occasionally that has such a big gap on the bottom part of the doors it might as well not have doors at all.. Every time I visit the bathroom I laugh about that (and hope that nobody else comes to the bathroom!:eek:)...

I tell Americans when they ask why we're so stiff that ""you're all loud and obnoxious in public because you're prudish crap in the bedroom. Now what do you think the Brits are like in that case?"
It makes them think.

I'll say it does, I'm still trying to figure it out.

Between people peeking through the gap at you to see if it's occupied and the automatic hurricane (flush?) that sets off before you've had time to pull your knickers up.
Not prudes, just not gay or a masochistic love.:)

Oh yeah, I hate that. No dignity. Might as well get rid of the cubicles altogether.

maybe someone with a slight "fetish"... oh yeah, it's America. No one here would have a fetish like that, I'm thinking Amsterdam. Must stop getting those two mixed up.

I was once told the gaps around the doors were there so people couldn't do drugs in public loos, I have no idea if that is true or not though and I certainly dont think it's effective if it is.

The gaps under the cubicle walls are there for US polititians to use to meet their public.
In public. :eek:

oh my, I am crying with laughter and trying to keep quiet as my hubby is asleep!!

The gaps around the cubicle doors....so true....:rofl:....I'm thinking maybe its in case the urge to join hands and sing 'God Bless America' (or other patriotic type ditty) strikes...they can unite through the gaps. As it were.
