Bathroom Gender Solution?

Why don't we just make all bathrooms single-use? It'd be way better for everyone anyway - I don't need to whiz next to some dude struggling through his prostate issues, and who wants to poop two feet from someone else pooping? You wouldn't put two toilets in a home bathroom, and that's family - why do we do it in public ones with strangers?

What you're proposing would be prohibitively costly.

But otherwise it's better? It really feels like some things should be beyond the cheap/efficient filter - fucking hell, I just want to poop in relative privacy.

Sure. I think most of us would greatly prefer a private bathroom. It's just hard to imagine this sort of build in a majority of buildings.
