Have you ever taken a close look at a handicap stall and compared it to a regular one? Popular belief tends to acknowledge a handicap stall as the "throne room among thrones" due to their luxurious size. I must ask, what does one do with all the extra space?
Were I handicap, I would have room for a wheelchair. Awesome! If I had a Segway, I would have a place to park. Awesome! If I rode my bike, I could lock it to the hand rail. Awesome!
Sadly, as I look around the stall, reality sets in. I have none of these. In addition, I notice that the seat is higher. Why is this? Why would the handicap toilet be 6 inches higher than a regular toilet? It baffles me. So, I think back on all the times I used the handicap and it dawned on me that it is annoying how high they are. I want my toilets low - like the kid's room in the public library - like I want to squat but still kind of sit a little.
Moral of the story, don't use the handicap. You never know, you could be preventing a real handicap person from using it. Wouldn't that make you feel terrible? Plus, they're kind of drafty anyway.
