Bathrooms occupy a unique position at the intersection of public and domestic spatial dynamics, challenging the binary of public versus private space. Traditionally gendered and often reinforcing oppressive social norms, bathrooms have also been theorised as ambivalent sites where regulation, vulnerability, and resistance coexist. This study examines the portrayal of bathrooms in HBO’s Girls, revealing that feminised characters, within a context structured by whiteness, employ similar strategies to construct intimate spaces in both public and domestic bathrooms. The paper introduces the concept of collective intimacy to move beyond sexual or romantic frameworks, foregrounding practices of care, negotiation, conflict, and solidarity. By reframing the bathroom, which is traditionally understood as a private, individualised space within modern and colonial urban settings, as a site of social interaction and shared emotional experience, the study challenges the entrenched ideal of bourgeois privacy and highlights the political and relational significance of everyday spaces for white feminised subjects.
