    Tbf there was a point not too long ago where most men’s rooms didn’t have a diaper station

      Yeah, that is definitely a newer development. I’d bet the vast majority of men’s rooms that have them didn’t get them at the same time as the women’s rooms, unless the building itself is fairly new construction.

          I feel like companies are often just catering to the public sentiment and it wasn’t publicly popular so they’re just reinforcing it rather than enforcing
