I also have problems with the Bathroom Uses You hack.  When a Sim needs to get clean but doesn't need the toilet (and I'm talking about Sims whose bladder is almost fully green, around 90%+), if I click on "Use Bathroom" it will insist on them going to the toilet first, even making them queue for it if necessary.
They only queue when they're not enough bathrooms, period: And sims are always made to pee first when showering because they may as well top off both meters, and peeing reduces hygiene, so it makes more sense to pee first.

I don't know if it's doing it with dormies too, but that might possibly explain people getting stuck, if too many are being sent to the toilet when they don't actually need it.  This is the same as the situation I've always had where the females always try to use the male showers and refuse to go to the female, even when they're standing in the female bathroom and the female showers are nearer.
Sounds like you've incorrectly set your seek designators.

I've also noticed a similar problem with the Skillinator in that if I send YA's in dorms with separate male & female toilets to get Charisma, they will just keep on trying to get into the male toilet to use the mirror in there, even if they're standing in the female toilet right next to the mirror when I cue it.
The current beta available in the Director's Cut, not sure if I've uploaded the standalone, can detect and ignore mirrors in bathrooms.

I've had problems with this hack in dorms where the public stalls were used.  My sim would only use the first stall in the bathroom and if that was being used by an NPC, he just wouldn't go and the entire macro would be cancelled out.

The best way to avoid that is if you don't put a shower or tub in the bathroom, in europe or at least we did't have it in Germany, toilets and and showers or tub are not in the same room.

Oh, man.  I just returned from my first trip out of the US (well, except Canada, but that doesn't count.  Before you Canucks complain, Canada is BETTER than the US, imho).  I went to Paris.  It's probably the most beautiful city I will ever see, but the whole separate shower/toilet thing REALLY threw me off.  We stayed at a university apartment, and if you asked me how many bathrooms, I'd have to say 1/2 and 1/2, as one had a toilet and sink, the other a shower and sink...how confusing!
Loved it, though!  'Specially the public transportation.  Go METRO!
