    In my 20s, I was immortal and immune to all forms of illness/crime/mishaps. Today, it's a whole other story.

    My guess is this issue plagues only the moms; most early-20s themselves don't care one way or another. In any case, how would they enforce the rules? Would W2 lock her bathroom and fish out the key every time she needed to use the facilities in her own home?

    One solution: When they have company, both roomies could use W1's bath and the guests could use W2's bath. And then the host would thoroughly sanitize W2's bath after the guest(s) depart.

    Your thread gave me PTSD. I once worked very briefly with a young lady who commandeered one of the two restrooms at work. She would have a major breakdown if anyone used "her" restroom.

    Maybe women care more than men. Women in 20's also care, if they can afford and they are paying the rent for a two bed two bath. If sharing a bathroom or bedroom, they adjust.

    : ) If they don't have common guests, they won't be close enough to use each other's bathroom or even easily go into each other's bedrooms.

    One woman sanitizing another's bathroom to the heart's satisfaction of the latter...and they are not DIL/MIL, the mind boggles. : )

    Before we moved in together in my house, my husband (then a graduate student) shared a house with 2 roommates. They were good friends. Once I was over to his place as a friend not a girlfriend (we started dating later) and had to use restroom, he showed me his restroom (en suite) instead of his friends. I guess it was an unsaid rule: your guests use your restroom.

    Personally, I would not like strangers using my bathroom.
