I guess, given women's particular needs, a women's single cubicle toilet might need waste disposal for sanitary products and perhaps a sink internal to the cubicle to allow handwashing after dealing with said sanitary products. They could, of course, put them in both but that might not be easy when one cubicle is smaller than the other for instance.

Well, I'm not talking about bathrooms with any cubicles in them, but a small room with a wheelchair accessible toilet, a sink, baby changing station, and other assorted items to include trash, sanitary waste, and sometimes a urinal. They're often labeled as "Family restrooms" when there's only one or it is separate from two larger, segregated restrooms. Yet if a place has two of these functionally unisex family restrooms, they insist on segregating them. Since only one person is ever in there, the urinal is pointless, so any waste disposal can take that spot, and then they'd be identical besides some decoration that is often exclusive to the female restrooms
