I am female and i hate sitting on public toilets as i think a lot of people do. When i go for a pee i sort of squat over the seat. I cant sit down i hate it. The thought of all the germs... Eww.
And when i need a poo i cant go at all. I get poo fright and wait until i get home. Anyone else do this?
This seems to be a common worry people have, however it's not usually a good idea to hover above the seat while peeing as it can prevent your bladder from emptying fully and cause infections.
Try bringing antibacterial wipes out with you and wiping the seat with one before you sit down.
No, it is not normal. You do realize that the door handle you touch so thoughtlessly when you enter the bathroom has more germs on it than a toilet seat right?
Just get on with it, if it's not covered in pee then park your arse on there. get over yourself it's not like you won't wash later.
I never sit on a public toilet! except for the rare occasion of laying toilet paper all around the seat.... Female toilets are usually nasty as women who squat piss all over the seat (probably even myself) perhaps if we all actually sat on the seat, public toilets wouldn't be so nasty?! just a thought as urine wouldn't spray all over the place.....
I'm a guy and I always squat on public toilets when having a poo, not because of diseases, porcelain is just incredibly cold.
That's not even a joke, that's legitimately something I do, but if my even weirder quick is normal, then I can easily imagine that yours is.
I'm too lazy to hover so I put a ring of toilet paper around the seat if it's a public one.
I wipe the seat loads, creating a splash back protector. I then cover the toilet seat in toilet paper.
If it's really bad, I'll do the squat thing. It's a common way to poop in places like India or France. In France most the public toilets and just a porcelain hole with places for your feet.
Also that squatting thing is probably why you get inexplicable sh*t on the seat in public loos.
i'm a guy, and i even hate peeing in public toilets. just toilets in general. every time i go in one, my first though is to watch my back, 'cause of rapists.
When I use to use public toilets, in my later years, I would almost always squat. Public toilets are too unsanitary to be taking any chances with. O_O I once heard of a unfortunate woman who got crabs from sitting on a public toilet.
*Somewhere a airplane is flying over an ocean*
*A cannonball accidentally falls out*
*It gains a lot of speed as it falls down*
*The cannonball hits the water*
*Boom*
*A huge burst of water shoots upwards*
*In the name of defense, the military overacts and sends a missile to the location*
*The missile hits*
*The result: a gigantic mushroom cloud of water and destroyed ecosystems as far as the eye can see*
Sometimes I worry about that but not really anymore. First I quickly inspect the toilet seat to see if it looks clean (no pee on the seat, flushed) if I don't like what I see I move to the next stall unless there isn't one available. If the toilet seat has water or pee on it I'll wipe it off with toilet paper then either use the toilet seat covers or rip off pieces of toilet paper and cover the seat with it. If the toilet is "clean" and there aren't any toilet seat covers I just sit down but if I'm in a rush like I really gotta go or else I'll pee my pants and the seat looks dirty I'll squat. I don't have a problem with pooing in a public restroom unless there are only one or two stalls because then you either don't have time because people are waiting and/or it's embarrassing knowing the next person knows what you did.
