Well, I've never visited a public toilet in a Chinese train station.
But, I used to take the MBTA in Boston and have to change at Park St.

travelers prepare for long trips home aboard trains so crowded that even the toilets are jammed with peopleJebus, Mary and Joseph. It tells you a lot about a society when you gotta wear an adult diaper because you can't get to a bathroom. That said, I wonder if any American men are wearing them during the Super Bowl?

A woman I know that worked at a casino told me that some people actually wear these so they never have to leave their favorite slot machine.

Like so many other things the Chinese buy, they probably do so because they think we buy them, and they want to be like us.
To: Dr. Marten
It makes sense. Would you want to use a Chinese toilet?

This reminds me of a former roommate, who had traveled from New York to Boston on a Chinese bus (it boarded at Chinatown). She said it was so filthy she would never again ride one, no matter how cheap.

One of my all time favorite SNL moments:
To: Dr. Marten
Had collegues visiting from the States right before CNY last year, they couldn't believe the lines to buy tickets. I had to buy a ticket from Shanghai to Nanjing, my serviced apartment's front desk sent some poor lacky to the station and stood in line all day to get my ticket - I felt kinda bad ... but ...
To be fair, the sardin packed crowd are most consigned to the cheap seats in the interior lines, shell out the RMB for a soft seat or a soft sleeper on an express route and it's a decently fast and clean, comfortable ride.
One of these days I'll have to at least experience the old style YZ bench ride before they are all gone (but not during CNY :))
