Toilets and Other Luxuries

Oh, how I love toilets.  I especially love a toilet that's in a space I can fit into.  Seriously, WHY are the stalls almost exactly the size of the toilet, and the door opens in?  And the toilet paper dispenser overlaps the toilet.  I don't want to kiss a public toilet's wall.  I really don't.  So on our trip down to Black Butte Lake, we stopped at a Burger King, whose toilet doors open OUT.  Genius.  So simple, yet it made my day.  I don't understand why design so simple requires such great minds.  Do other people just not use toilets?  It's never occured to them that people might want to FIT into the stall?  And you can go ahead and call me out as fat, that's fair, but my 10 year old slim and trim daughter has to straddle the toilet to close the door.  So, ye designers of toilets and other spaces, square inches count, but so does comfort.  Help a gal out.
