Speaking only for myself, as a fat woman? If there is not someone waiting- either to use the accessable stall or at all?

I'll use the big one. I don't absolutely have to. But I find it very nice to be able to actually pull my pants up and down without banging an elbow. A super quick pee will result in someone who needs the stall being forced to wait all of 30 seconds.

I'm not monopolizing the facility. I'm not preventing anyone who needs it more from using it. But if no one is waiting, I feel I have the right to pee in relative comfort.

And yes, they ALL should be built bigger and easier to use- I blew out my quads at the gym on Wednesday, and spend most of the work week profoundly thankful for the bars in the stall at work, letting me get from sitting to standing without dying.
