In high-crime areas, they might well be. But you don't get to use the term "often" to describe a situation that doesn't apply to 99% of the bathrooms across this planet. This is called the "faulty generalization" fallacy.
Hell, when driving to Kansas City a few weeks ago, I accidentally walked into the ladies' room at a rest stop (they were right next to one another, and the sign placement was confusing enough that my exhausted-from-driving brain didn't notice), walked around for a few seconds before noticing the lack of urinals = ladies' room, and walked calmly back out to turn the corner into the adjacent men's room.
Often is relative. I could say I often go to the gym often even if I'm only going to the gym 0.5% of the day twice a week. You criticizing me for using general terms when you originally said toilet doors aren't locked or guarded when they sometimes are is pretty hypocritical.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
