Case Scenario:...
My friend told me that she had to use the bathroom, so I said to go the the restroom down the hallway *we are in school* She freeked out and said I will wait till I get home. I said to her Just go! The bathrooms are really clean and good in our school but she refused to move.
So now her bladder is nearly bursting and Im all but screaming at her to go to the damnm bathroom! But she's got something in her head that she'll get all kinds of god awful diseases if she just pees!
Now Im not saying their arent nasty folk out there but forget holding it in until I can barely walk! And what ever happened to the balancing act over the ? She said she is going to wait until she gets home which will be at about 4 o'clock!!
This is crazy!

This is totally crazy. If you gotta go, then go. People who have fears such as this where they can't even go pee in a public washroom need some help. Yes, there are germs, but there are germs on everything, everywhere. Don't sit on the seat and wash your hands really well afterwards.

there was a looong thread about this a few months ago.

i hate when i go to the potty and some pervert tries to give me a blow...

yeah u do!

The thing that really pisses me off about public restrooms (heh) is when women think that PEEING ON THE SEAT is more sanitary than putting down a seat cover.


LADIES...FOR GOD'S SAKE...DO NOT PEE ON THE SEAT! :EVIL:

i'm sorta leery about public restrooms, too...but not to that extent. if i gotta go (and if the place is clean enough), i'll go. ain't gonna risk gettin a bladder infection...

Girl...it's SICK...you know those women who think it's better to do that quarterback squat thing over the public toilet seat than sitting on it...well, they end up peeing all over the seat.
It's making me sick just thinking about it

I was taught personal hygeine from when i was a lil toddler, so i know the toilet savvy thing to do is to move over ur ass above the seat, being sure to lay some tissue down on the seat incase u loose ur balance.

crap mistake EDIT

I carry a travel-size pack of toilet seat covers with me...
The BEST public restrooms are the ones with automatic flushers...plenty of seat covers in the stalls and automatic soap dispensers, towel dispensers/blowers and sinks...

If the seat is clean to the eye (not covered in piss and shit and pubes) what actual disease can you really catch off it?

I've never heard of anyone actually catching a disease off a seat. Sure, it might seem gross, but what can really happen?

You could get pregnant!

althom said:

I thought you could onlt get pregnant if you used the same bath water.

bkw said:

No..I think it happens when you both share the same toilet.

Hehehe, when i was in prep (5 years of age) i used to carry this lil toilet paper thingy from a first aid kit :LOL:

OH i LOVE those automatick flushers and sinks and stuff! It takes a bit to get used to it though (sometimes u don't realise its an automatic one, until ur pullin up ur knickers and all of a sudden...*FLUSH!* )
