Indeed. I love my privacy in the bathroom as well.

Some people aren't happy unless they have something to have a cow about.

Isn't it funny? Stomping my foot! I insist on multi-stalls with strangers relieving themselves right next to me! My own private bathroom? Won't hear of it.

Also good for tg people, or people that are worried about the tg policy, or that have shy bladders.
Pandering to .05% of the of the gender confused population is stupid.

It is funny, and kinda crazy. I have a lot of social anxiety, so being in public is hard enough. Going to the bathroom in public is a nightmare for me, especially if there are several people in there already.

I think most people...gay, straight, trans, fluid, male, female, anything and everything in between..anxious, not anxious...in the end probably appreciates a private locked bathroom over a multi-stall situation in either the men's or women's rooms.

I definitely agree. I think a single stall bathroom is a fantastic idea. I really hope it catches on, because it's kind of hard to find one.

$20M for how many stores though? Hard to judge based on that figure alone.

According to the article "The bathroom expansion is a relatively minor adjustment. According to Target spokeswoman Katie Boylan, 1,400 of the company's 1,800 stores already have single-occupancy bathrooms. The remaining stores will be outfitted by early 2017."
