I saw the reverse in a ladies room at a winery/restaurant near a tourist town north of Sydney; the sanitary-disposal bin in every stall was full to overflowing with used toilet paper.
One sensed a certain despair on the part of the proprietors. Every stall had multiple signs - over the toilet, over the toilet paper roll, over the sanitary bin, on the front of the bin, on the inside of the stall door - with emphatic underlines and red print and exclamation marks - each in English, Chinese, Korean and (maybe one more) begging them to flush the paper and NOT put it in the sanitary bin.
There was no regular rubbish bin as they had electric hand dryers. I shudder to think what the mens room - with no sanitary bins - looked like.
Just the one place, in just that one town - no where else.
