2. Apparently I have a smaller 'stance'!!!!
Nope! Can't imagine that being an accident. Not more than once...

And I can't believe I'm responding to this!!!

LOL

3. otoh
I DID once have the person in the next stall reach under and make groping gestures...

I knocked the crap out of the extended appendage, and the guy high-tailed it.

13. and you're pretty sure the guy wasn't just looking for TP...
cos that would kinda suck, no double entendre intended, to be out of paper and then get your hand mashed as a bonus :P

6. At my high school, we had fairly narrow stalls
That did not go down as far as stalls in most public places now.
It would have easily been possible for one's foot to touch another person's foot.
If it had accidently happened to me, I don't remember it.

7. No.
But once when I was coming out of a bathroom stall, several girls surrounded me, screamed, and sprayed various hair products in my face.

That was wierd.

8. I can't answer for men, but like most women ...
I have had to take an extra-wide stance on many occasions in order to do the "hover-over-the-toilet-so-your-butt-doesn't-touch-the-seat" routine. I can honestly say that my foot has never, EVER touched the foot of the woman in the next stall ... even though she was most likely positioned in the extra-wide stance, too.

Admittedly, I have on occasion, reached my hand under the divider and into the next stall, but ONLY after asking the occupant of that stall if she could spare a square. I have also had a stranger's hand reach under the divider and into my stall under the same circumstances. After the squares were passed, we both went about our business in the privacy of our own stalls. :D

9. From personal experience I can tell you.
When I am in the stall doing my business my pants around my knees or ankles prevent me from having a wide stance. To have a wide stance you either have to take your pants off or not lower them. I am betting that he never lowered them (Thus he was not in the stall to take care of the usual personal business).

10. LOL! Just the opposite is true - as soon as a "neighbor" enters an adjoining
stall I curl up tighter than a snail and soon plan my exit.

16. OMG, you're right. The green bar barely registers the vote.
Sorry, my error for second guessing the voting public.

20. If I tried to touch someone's foot in the other stall
as short as my legs are I'll fall flat on my butt. I am 4'11".

25. No. BUT, I did accidentally go into the into the Ladies restroom once.
I sat on the john, was whistling and generally making noise. I looked to my left, and there was a receptacle built into the wall that said "Napkin Disposal". I wondered (out loud) "Who would bring napkins into the bathroom?" After a few more seconds, I was stunned... I stood up, looked over the stall door, and noticed that there were NO URINALS. I almost died. Then I heard the toilet next to me flush, and heard the click-clack of heels rushing out of the bathroom.

When I walked out, there were about 20 people looking at me like I just shot my least favorite politician.

We left about five minutes later, in a hurry.
