Ladies: why, why, could you possibly need to be on your cell phone while using the toilet in a public restroom? It's one thing on a bus or plane, where really, you could just as easily be talking to a friend anyway as jabbering into your cellphone, even if the phone does end up generally requiring a slightly higher volume of conversation.
However, when I go into the restroom, say at the office for example, I'm really looking for some peace and quiet while I take care of business. Given the activity involved, and already uncomfortably close proximity in bathroom stalls -- a fair question is why don't the doors and walls go all the way to the floor and ceiling? -- it is taking things one step too far to also hold a conversation in there on a PHONE. What in the world is the scenario in which you would say to yourself, hm, I really really need to take this call right now, and simultaneously need to use the bathroom to such a degree that it can't wait until I am finished?! Outside the rare case in which you have a medically diagnosed bladder control disorder, and your best friend calls to say she is giving birth right that very minute and simply can't go through with it without a quick pep talk, I have to imagine you can pick either the call or the bathroom break and handle them one at a time. I appreciate the technology that allows me the option of doing both together, really I do, but remain grossed out by those who take it.
