If you haven't guessed, I have many thoughts on airport bathrooms in particular. (You can totally chart my transition according to my relationship to airport bathrooms, by the way, which may be TMI. As a kid, I hated peeing on airplanes, to the point I once made it an entire trans-Atlantic flight without going to the bathroom. But in college, I was avoiding bathrooms in the airport because it was too fraught. I'm now back to disliking airplane toilets, but still reflexively catalogue and rate airport bathrooms.)
Terminal 1 at SFO has at least one set of restrooms where people are naturally funneled towards a multi-user all-gender one with proper isolated cubicles (even more so than in Europe--they're little individual rooms) and common sinks, but they have gendered multi-user restrooms to the sides (imagine a |__| shape -- the __ is the all-gender and then the gendered ones are on the |). That honestly seems like a setup no one can really object to. It probably takes a bit more space, but it was a fairly high traffic area and I had to wait like 10 seconds for a cubicle. I grew up in Chicago and O'Hare has massive bathrooms, so I'm constantly baffled by some of the tiny ones you find in airports. It's an airport, more than four people need to use the bathroom at once!
I will seriously answer questions until the cows come home, for you or anyone else. I won't discuss bottom surgery except in high-level generalities, but that's honestly pretty much the only thing that's consistently off-limits.
