It must cost millions if not billions to build separate stalls in public "restrooms" (itself a euphemism) so that we cannot watch each other evacuate. Dogs don't care about this; I am somewhat of a bird watcher and certainly birds could not give a $ihit if you see them do their business.
I don't even like using the stalls in public facilities. I know it is irrational but I will do anything to avoid it. What if someone sees me go in or come out?
My theory is that it goes back to evolution and humans ultra-violent nature. Nowhere are you more vulnerable to attack than when you are squatting to perform your daily constitutional. Hence we evolved our fear of others watching while we did our duty. The same principle might apply to sex.
People are squeamish about things like that. From very early on, there is a certain trauma associated with learning to go to the bathroom. We have been conditioned from early childhood to hide that aspect of our lives from others.

Dogs do worry about this. If they do have to publicly evacuate, they will have an embarassed expression - looking away from you, and hanging their heads in shame.
Ive owned and been around dogs all my life. Ive never known one that happily crapped for an audience.
Unlike people however, dogs apparently finish the experience with a quick run of joy and happiness, as if they suddenly feel all light and fluffy inside. Ive never seen a human come skipping out of a stall, and run around all excited and barking after the same experience.

Hunting and ****ting like a bear in the woods since I was a child got me over that.
I've shot and killed a deer whilst pearched on a bump leaving a dump.
Early in the morning when no one is awake I leave the door open for my morning constitutional. Along with the front door that has the fan blowing out warm and and sucking in cool air before it warms up.
Nothing like the cool breeze blowing across your legs as your doing your doodee.
Dogs don't really like being watched. That has been my experience.
My kid (2) was never told anything good or bad about pooping or privacy but he insists we go away while he takes his ipad under a curtain or under a chair or in his tent or in the pantry.

Did you ever hear the stories about Lyndon Johnson who would have his staff follow him to the bathroom and continue meetings while he was taking a dump?
I spent a summer in an old Army barracks at Ft. Bragg in the 1970s. The latrine area had two toilets sitting next to each other without stalls.

Al Bundy and Archie Bunker always came out with self-satisfied smiles. Same is true of constipated geezers who have just had a successful evacuation on the throne.
