Speaking about trends, I saw today that Realtor.com is trying to convince people that having double sinks in a bathroom is going out of style and, in their opinion, is "a trend that home buyers hate."

Haha. A big eyeroll from me too. Thank God that I don't pay attention to those things! I will agree that an all white bathroom sucks. Our secondary bath has dated white tile throughout with white grout. Impossible to keep clean. I hate it very much. My home, built in 1989, has no medicine cabinets whatsoever so I guess it was ahead of its time, lol.
I personally like a big tub and a shower. Smallish - or no - tub is a dealbreaker.
You've never been to my house, my sister's, my brother's, or my parents! None of this describes any of our bathrooms! Many women don't wear makeup. And those who do don't typically have it all over. Same with perfume. Many women keep a lot of their lotion in their nightstand because they put it on when they're getting ready for bed.
Sounds like you need to clean out your medicine cabinet. Many of us don't keep all that in a medicine cabinet. We don't even have all of those items.
That is actually the typical average home. Are you "that perfect" that you don't have any of these items in your bathroom?

You've never been to my daughter in law's house. Both bathrooms are full of makeup items.
I see bathrooms like this all too often:
I work hard to make sure my wife doesn't do this with our bathroom...

DH and I are totally happy with two vanities, two sinks and two big mirrors in one big master bath. In fact, when I think about it, this must be the only true luxury item in this house, except for the shower we just had redone.

When I saw this, I thought they must be talking about hallway bathrooms, but no, they mean the master. . I don't think many of the newer master bathrooms are lacking the space required for two sinks, and this isn't something I want to give up. I need my personal space. If they were talking about secondary bathrooms, I might agree. Our former home had a hallway kids bath with two sinks and I hated it. If we had remodeled, I would have switched it to one sink with more counter space. The second sink was never used and just collected dust and odds and ends.

I opted to put only one sink in the hall bath when I built a couple of years ago. Interestingly, the vanity in that bathroom is actually larger than in the master due to the different configuration of the rooms (master is more of a square, hall bath is a long, narrow rectangle). There still would have been more counterspace in there than in the master, even with a 2nd sink. But since I only have one kid, it didn't feel worth it to me.
And I really do appreciate that extra length of counter, that's where I clean the humidifiers, including putting vinegar into them to soak for a while.
