Back in my other life, I use to travel to Italy and ran into hole/footprint toilets several times. A couple of times were in pretty good restruants. The first time my wife experienced one, we were on a bus tour, it was running late so we made an unscheduled stop in a small village. A small store was the only thing available but they assured our tour director that we were all welcome to share their single facility. Several women ahead of us looked in and walked out talking to themselves. Some thing about "No Way". ??? When we got to the head, my wife looked in, grabbed my hand and said that she needed support. After all, they did say we could share. She held my arm for support and did what was necessary. Everyone in line behind us ended up doing the same too some. What every works.
. After that experience, my wife started collecting photo's of various bathroom facilities in our travels. Sorry, but they are now buried with other pictures and hard to access.
