Haha, yes some noises simply can't be avoided, but I definitely make an effort to minimize them. Grunts, sighs, and other exclamations are commonplace in the bathroom in my office... It's like it's company policy or something. That, and you always hear someone typing away on a laptop or BlackBerry in the stalls.
I must admit that I sometimes go for the quick hand washing (sans soap) if all I touch while I'm in there is my fly zipper. I don't think it's too germ-infested.
That white noise idea is excellent. If there was just some light music or something in there, maybe it would cover the bodily symphony that my co-workers enjoy so much.
