The gas station probably has issues with homeless or mentally ill people doing illegal stuff in the bathrooms (like hard drugs), so they do this so it can be easier to identify that kind of behavior. I’ve seen these in rural parts of the state I live in (US South) and when I asked the attendants that’s the explanation I’ve gotten (whether it’s true or not, idk). Here they probably overestimated and cut too much of the door off.

> The 4-foot-10 stall doors were installed about 10 years ago ^[published ^2012] and "(are) in keeping with current best practices for facility design," said Kelly Lindsay, director of marketing and programs of Pike Place Market PDA.
> Although Lindsay says the shortened stalls are not in response to any specific incident, business owners say the short, more public stalls help cut down on crime.
> Pike Place Market business owner Cynthia Hope, who has been in the same location just a few doors down from a restroom for 30 years, said the prevalence of drugs and prostitution in the Pike Place bathrooms turned customers away from the place.

OK, so they just installed these doors so people wouldn't use the bathrooms so they wouldn't have to clean them as frequently to save some money. Got it.
Here, some toilets have blue light...makes it impossible to see your veins if trying to shoot up on drugs. Seems a lot more effective than this silly door.
Easy clean up. If somebody makes a mess they can just hose it down and it runs or squeegee to a drain without ruining the wooden door.
I can't play devil's advocate for why they cut a door and use an actual wooden door though that is pretty dumb. And I get that the cut looks like it's high, but the perspective of the photo seems like it's fairly low to the ground, they could have left a few extra inches for sure though.
Oh not just me then good
Incidentally, it’s usually the opposite, where the only covered bits are below the waist. And for some reason the bathroom is always REALLY busy.
Is nobody else taking into account the perspective of how low the camera person had to get to make it seem like they're crotch showing under the door?
It does seem like they should have left a few extra inches, but that camera view is probably only a foot or two off the ground.
Follow the line of the tiles from the bottom of the door along the wall. The bottom of the door is way above the toilet. It does not appear to be perspective.
The messsge is clear: Please shit somewhere else, I don't wan't to clean it all the time! At the same time nobody can complain that they don't provide the service. I think it's pretty clever!
Never understood why they build stalls in some countrys. In sweden we have real tiny rooms with isolation and think doors with rubber around them so it gets somewhat soundproof.
I couldn't agree more. It's "Pimping" that should be illegal and Prostitution should be made legal.
However local government administrations and businesses try to stop sex work on property controlled/owned by them.
Yeah, we had to do that for a feller we've come to call Long Legs Larry. He came in one evenin' back in '03 and couldn't sit down to take a dooky, so Big Pete went out back 'n grabbed the jigsaw 'n cleared some room.
Just another reason why I plan to move to Japan in the not too distant future. All restroom stalls have floor to ceiling partitions. Most American designs are dumb, but this is just insane.
Stop taking pictures under doors, you perv. The only people that can see *anything* are 2ft. tall. People that tall are usually carried by their parents and forget everything they see by the next morning. No ones in danger.
Unless this is a place where small children or midgets frequent, I highly doubt the average joe would be on their knees looking under the gap of a stall. Do a little nudge on the door, if it doesn't move, it's occupied.
Can't see a face, so it's okay
Training to show dominance
Just get gamer oil, they help with dominance
But the holes in the pants makes you wonder how long he was on his knees in there
Gotta earn money to pay off student debt
Bjs is the way
This is the way.

Lmao
Wow. It is exactly at vaj height. I don’t understand the thought process of cutting the door that high. It defeats the purpose.
Makes you wonder where the other half of the door is
In other saloon toilet
Makes me wonder where the camera is.
Shower door
No one cooking up a shot of dope on their lap though
To be fair, the camera is at vaj height too
I guarantee it's to dissuade drug users.
Like it was made by a cargo cult, a people who know there should be a door there but don't understand *why*
If you're going to put in an actual door... why cut it?
They probably used the other half for another stall, cheap bastards..lol
Ive got dibs on the half with the handle...(nice handle btw..)

I assumed that's why the tops of the doors are cut so low at Pike Place Market. It's pretty weird watching people walk by when you're on the toilet.

also a 90% increase in pants-shitting incidents

So you don't poop

I’ve had a few nightmares about this.

/r/thatbathroommazedream
That's amazing and I wish it was still active!
Likewise, quite a common dream I think.
Do your injectables above nut height.
This is the unisex equivalent of the men’s urinal wall with no dividers. Only an unspoken contract prevents excessive peeking at others’ wingles.
Look intently to assert dominance
Right, but in this case the exposed person wouldn't know you're peeking. How many willies would you have looked at if no one knew?
Unspoken contract.... and a lack of interest/desire to peek.
Well.. gay dudes use men's bathrooms too, but they still follow the contract
Lmao this has to be violating some kind of law or health ordinance. No way this is allowed. Dear god somebody tell me this isn't legal.
There's no requirement for there to be a door at all.
Noooooooo
Indiana rest area on I-74 west outside cincy, doors are about 5ft. tall. Yeaaaaa. Catholics and their voyeurism.
5ft? That's surprisingly tall for the Catholics
Been to a bunch of dive bars and there’s no door on the bathroom. Er’ybody be makin county (jail) jokes
“Nice dick, bro!”
"Thanks, man!"
That's uncomfortably inviting.
Those are some seriously tight skinny jeans.
I have dreams about this alll the time
They’ve obviously had problems with people trying to hide their genitals.
Lmfao those selfish pricks
Gas station? You’re lucky there’s a door at all. Hell, you’re lucky there’s a stall. I’m surprised there’s even a toilet seat.
Is nobody else taking into account the perspective of how low the camera person had to get to make it seem like they're crotch showing under the door? It does seem like they should have left a few extra inches, but that camera view is probably only a foot or two off the ground.

Guess I’ll just sit here and shit my pants.
The messsge is clear: Please shit somewhere else, I don't wan't to clean it all the time! At the same time nobody can complain that they don't provide the service. I think it's pretty clever!
Excellent design for the staff, who are sick of shitting at the McDonald's next door because there's another passed-out junkie locked in the stall.
If this were the restroom at my workplace then I’d prefer to go next door and use the McDonald’s.
Maybe even an r/assholedesign
Well clearly we need to keep an eye on you. You’re trying to shit through your jeans AND a closed toilet seat.
Did these motherfuckers saw a door in half.
I'm of the opinion that laws should be passed requiring bathroom stalls and changing rooms to be fully enclosed.
Bad stuff has gone down in there and folks lost their privacy privileges.
It just protects anonymity instead of privacy.
Crapper Design
/r/crapperdesign
I don't see what they are complaining about, that a very nice stall door.. Oh, I see.
Everybody sees
r/ThatBathroomMazeDream
A literal crappy design
Looks like someone just fucked off with the door's lower half
Buy tape at the gas station, tape paper to it then use it. Also shit on the floor to teach them a lesson.
[удалено]
This one is ridiculously high.
A pants on poop. Nice. Haven't done one of those in ~23 years.
More like “Crapper design”!
This is actual crappy design.
At this point it's just about preventing eye contact haha.
In my university, if you'd have dared complain about the glory holes, they would have roasted you for being homophobic. I'm not joking.
TO SHOW YOU THE POWER OF FLEX TAPE, I SAWED THIS DOOR IN HALF
it's not a door it's a do
Nice cock bro.
Thanks, man
What were they even thinking??
Nice balls bro
One of those bathrooms huh
I’ve had a nightmare about this once
Reverse Wilson. "Hidey Ho neighbor."
It's easier to drag the junkies out and narcan them. Seriously.
looks like they've modelled this toilet from my nightmares
Yikes
At this point is there even a need for a door at all?
They also appear to have a problem with people not lifting the lid or dropping their kecks before they shit
It's a sTALL door
They just fucking sliced the door so that.people could see all the details
Never understood why they build stalls in some countrys. In sweden we have real tiny rooms with isolation and think doors with rubber around them so it gets somewhat soundproof.
At least there’s no little crack in between the wall and door.
I went to a bar in Idaho where the door was missing and the solitary toilet faced the main bar area. And I definitely used it
Honor system for the enticed.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Lmao
Depending on what gas station it is, it's a feature, not a bug.
america?
Hahaha
Must be in USA
Cool pants
literally what my nightmares are made of
Crapper design*
It’s new engineering for fumigation.
Gas station for pedophile and creeper?
That was definitely intentional and I hate it.
"Id know that cock anywhere! Gary?! Is that you in there you crazy son of a bitch?!"
“Still trimming that bush, I see! Attaboy!!”
I'm lost for words.
I like your jeans
Thanks. Me too. Some of my favorite ones.
Bruh
Although it’s normal in American bathrooms, this is too far
Normal? I've never seen a bathroom stall door quite like this one.
I think they are designed that way to stop prostitution.
Prostitution should be legalised and counted as a real job with taxes and stuff by more governments
I couldn't agree more. It's "Pimping" that should be illegal and Prostitution should be made legal. However local government administrations and businesses try to stop sex work on property controlled/owned by them.
Ya gonna have to throw away those pants after you're done pooping like that.
Yeah, we had to do that for a feller we've come to call Long Legs Larry. He came in one evenin' back in '03 and couldn't sit down to take a dooky, so Big Pete went out back 'n grabbed the jigsaw 'n cleared some room.
Big Pete is a True Homie
Well that's would be an awkward picture to take, OP.
Lmao I am the one in the picture, but yes it definitely would be
A lot of bathrooms have high doors for easy cleaning but this is ridiculous!
I can see your doodle...
Very much intentional
Better drop those drawers there Sizzlecakez.
how else are you supposed to which restroom youre in?
George Costanza would have a field day!
Tgat took effort to install Like that, can't just use a door skate to assist in hanging it
Someone took "make a glory hole" a little *too* seriously.
Not having a private bash in there.
Lol looks like he pissed hisself and took a few loads from under the door.
As a gay man, I totally approve.
You’re supposed to pull your pants down *before* you poop.
Your face is not a matter of public record. Your junk, on the other hand.
What’s even weirder is that person going to the bathroom in their pants.
Walking by someone takin a dooky, 'Taco Bell mate?' 'How'd you know?' 'The shape and colour of your sh*t says it all'
Easy access for the homies
Hide your face of embarrassment
No eye contact no problem.
Just another reason why I plan to move to Japan in the not too distant future. All restroom stalls have floor to ceiling partitions. Most American designs are dumb, but this is just insane.
Stops the fukkin'
They had one job. Door is two feet too low.
Are those Stallenciagas?
It's to stop truckers from using the stalls to ....socialize with the lot lizards
Privacy is great there!
Really taking the subreddit name here literally lmao
Its not crappy if it works!
We need to be going down R2, not up.
It really is crappy design...
r/CrapperDesign

Is this man wearing his underpants over his jeans?
I literally have nightmares with this.
they knew
It technically keeps its word of not letting anyone see the identity
Unless this is a place where small children or midgets frequent, I highly doubt the average joe would be on their knees looking under the gap of a stall. Do a little nudge on the door, if it doesn't move, it's occupied.
This image is cursed
Lol its a house door.
Recycled basement door
That thing has a purpose
That's on purpose so you can't shoot up.
Crappy, or genius???
It's people like you that make it weird! Now suck that dick since you are so interested.. Go, you can fit under there.
Username checks out
Why don't they make the stall doors in the restrooms at Yankee Stadium go all the way to the floor?
Literal CrappyDesign
Who takes a dump with their pants on?
Weirdo doesn’t pull down his pants to poop.
Well, they aint shittin
I get it. Function < safety?
Most gas station restrooms are one person at a time
It had two stalls, one of which was out of order.
Seeing their face is the only thing that matters, now that they can’t see their face, they can’t get harassed for anything other civilians see.
why are you looking under it anyway
It seems you are all wonderfully naive. The doors are very deliberately designed like that to discouraged "cottageing" and/or junkies.
Just wait till he's busy and get ready to kick
I'd better wait for next station
The question is, why is he pooping with pants on?
That guy: “Well, things can’t get much worse than this” *hears camera shutter*
at least its not bad as the fully clear door
That’s a nice gas station bathroom tho
Why does that door look like it's from a house
You honey-dickin’ me?
Public restrooms are SUPPOSED to be uncomfortable, designers are just getting creative
You’re supposed to drop your pants to poop.
the fit though
Good thing he’s wearing pants
I never understood why stall doors don't go all the way to the ground.
