I can only answer for me... and as I am not a submissive woman, but don't stress overly much about common societal conceptualizations of what is "polite" and "not polite" to do, be, or say, I may be representative of some of the dichotomy you're seeing, in any case. For myself, I don't mind leaving the door open when I pee, simply because it's a basically innocuous process, and pee pretty much looks the same from person to person, regardless of race, gender, etc. Sometimes, I don't mind leaving the door open when I'm pooping. Usually, that includes times when I am pretty sure that what I'm doing is going to be fairly innocuous in terms of odor, and fairly generalized in terms of other aspects... not too much work to produce, or too sloppy, etc. I don't want to look or smell like a freak, however, and so, if I suspect that I've eaten something that didn't agree with me, if I'm in a stranger's house (or even a friend's house where I don't visit daily or even weekly), or if I'm uncertain about the household's position on open bathroom doors while doing one's business, I'll close the door out of general decorum, and preference for privacy from strangers' eyes for myself. Sometimes, if I'm just feeling anxious on general principles, for no reason other than gut instinct, I'll also close the door, just because being behind that door gives me some blessed distance from the rest of the human race. There is a lot more that can go "wrong" with poop, as opposed to pee... so it's much more likely that the bathroom door will be closed for stooling, where it might be casually left open during voiding.
