    In the US, mostly because of the associations with prostitutes made by American soldiers in Europe during WWII. They were frequently called “whore’s baths”. Personally, I love mine and hate having to use a toilet without one.

      In Belgium toilets are in their own room, smaller than a super small storage room, with just the toilet, and they don’t have bidets; I call them ghettoilet

        That sounds awful, how do you wash your hands before touching the door? You can’t

          It is. It’s literally pain. To wash my butt I have to sit on the tub, it’s uncomfy and annoying and disgusting
