Clearly you’ve never half-bathed in gas station restrooms while hitchhiking cross country. Hint: it doesn’t involve the toilet.
But I’m puzzled that a room with only one plumbing fixture is called a “quarter bath” regardless of whether that fixture is a sink, toilet or shower. Dat don’t make no sense.
So is this a good time to bring up Hillary’s email server? Cuz I thought merely using an improperly secured server was a super huge deal to conservatives, many of whom screamed treason and demanded prison for her. And I don’t think any vital information was ever actually leaked through it.
On the other hand, if you say you are going to the bathroom, nobody expects you to take a shit in the bathtub
Never heard “half bath”, and I always called those washrooms.
It is common in the US, frequently they will be listed as 2 & 1/2 baths if they have two with tubs and one without.
Haven’t paid enough attention to know how they list multiple 1/2 baths but pretty sure they don’t add up like regular fractions…
I always found the term 1/2 bath weird.
I’ve never heard of this before. I have what you describe as 3/4 bath, but it was listed as a full bath in MLS.
Imagine getting a half bath but only the back half so you don’t even get a faucet

They’d either list them separately or as a whole and then clarify. E.g. "two full- and two half-baths"or something like “four bathrooms - two full”
Whatever we call them, it’s always some euphemism hiding the fact tha it’s the pooping room.
It’s a way to conveniently talk about the number of bathrooms. You can say a house is “three bedroom, two and a half bath” and you convey that there are two bathrooms and one “washroom”.
What gets confusing are these large homes, or McMansions that list 5 bedrooms and 7 and a half baths. So are they listing 3 powder rooms at 1.5 baths? I can’t afford them, so I only see it online; but that part gets weird. I have seen descriptions that then list full and partial though.
You can bathe half your body in the sink and the other half in the toilet.
