It is pretty ridiculous to plumb three or four separate drains for the same room.

The only time I enjoyed a wet room was when staying in an extremely hot humid country. You don't mind the wet floor because it's never cold, it's always sort of soothing. You go in there and dump buckets of tap-water temperature "cold" over you and it's refreshing and good.

But most of us don't live in a tropical developing country with rare AC, outside of that you might as well just have a big shower? I mean really what's the difference between a wet room and a large shower?

With the proliferation of showers with windows extending down to dong-height, is it really surprising that someone left the door open to force others to watch them poop?

The logical extension is that rich people in high rise apartments will just poo poo directly out of the window upon the greater masses.

Not just the extension of shower architecture, of everything really.

At a previous job our Oslo office had a sky bar on the top floor of the building. Said bar had a bathroom where the urinal wall was just a floor to ceiling window with a view of our main competitor's office building, so you could stand there and pretend to piss on the competition.

I wish OP would come back and tell us about the lady closet. Did he put in a big shoe rack? Just a lot of general rack storage (good for boxed clothes)? Tall and short hanging spaces so longer items can be hung properly?

Also, I have no idea what income bracket most people looking to to buy OP's house will be in and I'm not gonna go digging or anything stupid like that. But a percentageof women at most every level that can afford it have a tendency to buy a really nice vanity, and then take it with them if they move. Less-wealthy people who want one make do with a small vanity and lots of drawers on either side, but that's a pain compared to a sit-down scoot-under vanity with a surface area the size of a medium-plus computer desk, with an optional lifting top/middle section (I like the middle section idea, so I can set brushes and organizers on either side of the section) and lots of built in-drawers. Most non-beauty bloggers would be able to fit everything they own in one.

Obviously not every makeup wearer does this, especially the ones who aren't really "into" it. A built in vanity (assuming it has built-in storage and seating) would be awesome for them. But for those with vanities already, or who are excited that they're moving into a bigger home and can finally afford one, the vanity is gonna be a minus. They're gonna be tearing that fucker out to get theirs in good lighting. Or they'll put it in the bedroom (cosmetics shouldn't be stored near any humidity, ideally) and using the one in the bathroom as storage.

OP not knowing this is understandable. But it does put a cramp in his "I made this bathroom awesome for those broads" plan.

And OP, just in case you're reading. The fact that you aren't bothered by "female" doesn't mean poo poo. A lot of people are, and a lot of them aren't hairy angry lesbians, or whatever it is you think feminists are. There's actually nothing wrong with hairy angry lesbians, either, but you seem to be easily offended by women, and those are three things that men who are easily offended by women generally dislike.

The issue with "female" is that it sounds clinical and detached. No one (sane) has a problem with "female participants" in a statistical survey. Just in casual speech. Saying it's semantics is akin to saying "negro, black, whatever, it's semantics" back whenevet it was black people started pushing for "negro" to not be the default. Civil rights era? I don't know, I'm young.

It's not offensive to you, obviously. That ain't the point. This being the hill you die on, instead of any of the numerous other hills you successfully navigated, in combo with earlier remarks ("no wife to nag me," etc) and the fact that when you lost your temper, you decided to start calling women in the thread harpies or whatever, it's uh. Not a good sign. I'm not saying you're a rapist or abusive or anything, no way of knowing that. Just indicates a weird, unhealthy attitude toward women.

I say all that to try and get you to just loving think about it. I'm not judging, the world is rife with assholes who have crap attitudes about women. And women make mistakes, when men seen to be raised with the idea that if a woman makes a mistake, she's a useless harpy bitch slut, or whatever. It's easy to understand why men get these attitudes.

What's not easy is any sort of healthy relationship with someone who doesn't share them. And, assuming your standards are as high as you implied, a lot of the women you go after aren't going to have them. Which night be part of the problem. Confirmation bias and all, dude.

Good luck with your bathroom.

Actually, the term "female" is being used more in casual conversation nowadays as a synonym for "cisgender woman." I don't agree with it, but gender related language is really vague and people are both misusing and creating a bunch of terms to describe specific groups of people.

You do not have to be good. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves.
That's ridiculous-- are we supposed to refer to cis men as "males" too now, or is it only women who need their genitals alluded to in everyday conversation?

Dude, don't "actually" something like this. And no, reducing a group of people to an adjective is always pejorative. "Females," "blacks." It communicates that you find that one physical attribute so distracting you failed to notice anything else about the person.

Lowkey misogynistic goobers like the OP say "females" for two reasons, neither of which they could articulate. It's equal parts wanting to say "bitches" but vaguely sensing that wouldn't go over well and feeling uncomfortable making a choice between "girls" and "women."

I have never had a casual conversation in real life about gender. :shrug: but then I've spent my adult life in a place where people get called "duck" or "love" no matter the gender. Took my dad quite some time to get used to being called love by bus drivers.
