I'm American and believe me I have no desire to be in the same room with anyone in the can male or female, nor do I want anyone around when I am. Some things are just meant to be done alone. About the extent that I would want to share bathroom activities is my girlfriend or wife in the tub or in the shower while I'm brushing my teeth, or vice versa. I love my bro and my dad and male friends, but I got no desire to be in the same room while they are doing their business.
So its not exclusively an American thing, but as has been pointed out it probably seemed natural to these guys since they had all done time.
