Hidden toilet

Japanese consider about restroom as their private room rather than only for toilet. Sometimes they spend a long time reading newspapers or books and being relaxed in the restroom. To make sure one's private space, bath tub are usually in other room with toilet. So the term "Bath room" means just a room for taking a bath literally in Japanese. And in public restrooms, unlike in US, the doors cover each room from floor to ceiling so that one can't not see anything inside the each room. At first time, I feel something uncomfortable with US open restroom because I feel as if someone looked at me from under the door.
