@scottalanmiller I have to say that I came here and was surprised that half of the conversation is pictures of toilets lol.
You were surprised by that? Really?

Common enough in the north that we had issues finding bathrooms for the kids to use some days. We've seen them on Lake Como, on the Milan train line and so forth. So more in Lombardi and Piemonte than in Sicily.

@scottalanmiller I've been to Italy...never actually seen one of these. Kinda glad lol

We've been stuck in situations where we could find nothing else and the kids were afraid to use them.

I literally have no idea. There are never hooks to hang up your pants, either. I've really checked. I truly cannot figure out how to use them.

You have to be bendy, or use the handicapped stall, I'd probably have to at this point, yeah, bad joints. I've never experienced one myself, but wouldn't you're pants hide the things from view and be out of the way?

There are never stalls when you find these. They are normally in the middle of a giant room, nothing to grab onto anywhere.

I can't imagine how they would.
And then there is the big falling over problem.

Well, that doesn't make sense then.

Looks reasonable until they show this...

Um, that's not at all what squatting on one of those is like. Not only do normal adults not bend like that, but his center of gravity is WAY behind his feet. This only works if his ass cheeks are resting on the foot rests!

This picture clearly shows him throwing bucket water directly onto his pants.

Even that article mentions the need to hang up your pants across the room!
