It’s sad to see such a blatant attack on ones ability to drop a urinal deuce.

Went to a tourist bus stop bathroom in Toba. There was no door on the trough room. Anyone walking by could see everything. It was very weird.

I mean toilets in the us has huge gaps on the sides?? Not really that different. Right?

But it’s only see-through for 30 seconds. For another peek, you have to put another 10 yen in the slot.

I found in general, that the washrooms in Japan are less private than in western countries. There are several bathrooms in Tokyo where the urinals are visible from outside. In the west, there is usually a privacy wall, or a hallway that turns, while in Japan, the room is open to view from outside.
One specific example is the bathroom by the Eastern Gate of the Japanese Imperial Palace. In the men’s room, there was either no door, or the door was propped open, and anyone pissing was visible, from the side, by anyone walking by the entrance way.

So you can tell quickly if it’s occupied.

Some of us can only go when someone is watching.

Tbf, in the West, you sometimes see prefabricated urinals in public places like festivals and beaches.

Pretty sure it’s that LCD-like glass that, if it’s occupied, it blacks out.

I don’t care, but maybe some little girls in their early teens might freak out..? (or say eeew)

Then why even have a door?

A lot of small public parks in Japan will have urinals right next to the doorway. Often with no door. Very visible to anyone walking around.

Finding the strength inside yourself to use it builds character.

Not sure what the difference it makes, in a public restroom there’s no door when you’re standing at a urinal

Those Japanese and their crazy inventions, a see-through window, amazing idea.

Why does this matter? Ru sitting down in it facing the door?

I remember this when I went to Japan. Isn’t there not a lock on the door so the window helps you to know not to open it when someone is there?

Stops misuse. Or at least limits

Interesting thing for me is that you’ve got to go to another men’s toilet for pooping, what do they indicate on the signs? Men urinating this way and men pooping that way?

It’s not for pooping.
