Mark my words, in 100 years we'll look back at urinals like we look back at communal toilets in Rome where you shared a shit covered sponge to wash your ass. Why use a urinal when you can just use the toilet? Do you like having other people's pee splatter all over you? It's a barbaric practice. I will make sure urinals are abolished once i am made the general secretary of the central committee of the communist party of the fucking world republic

FWIW, I'm in China

So I frequent 2 bars, next to each other in the same building. Basically cookie cutters of each other, one has a unisex bathroom with 4 stalls and one has gendered bathrooms, bathroom 1 with 3 urinals and 1 stall, bathroom 2 with 2 stalls.

I've not had issues with either the unisex or the gendered bathrooms, but the line is simply noticably longer for the unisex bathroom. In a densely populated situation where people are drinking a lot of beer and space is a premium, fitting 4 people peeing at the same time on a Saturday night vs 3 in urinals + 1 (in men's) and 2 (in women's) decongests the whole process by a lot.

Do the urinals have little wall separators so you don't have to look at each others pee pees?

You mean “don’t get to look at each others pee pees” obama-sad

Fam, no one has to look at other people’s peepees.

The temptation is irresistible

I'm a very self conscious AMAB and not only do you not have to look, there are ways you can make sure no one sees it while at the urinal.

Yes and no. There are wood separators but they're also not very tall so if you're like 170+cm you could look at peepees. Average Chinese height, no.
