So if you need to do #1, what do you do?

hover

:shocked:

what? we girls hover or some might use an ass gasket. i've mastered hovering so it's no problem for my ass and that disgusting seat not to meet.

But girls don't fart, burp or do #2. Or so I heard.

i do all 3, discretely.... most of the time. :Q

i don't #2 in public restrooms though.

I've learned more about mosh than I ever bargained for.

yeh, after 6 years a lot of stuff slips out and adds up. :p

:shocked:

Yes... if the paper things are there I usually use them... but really I doubt a thin piece of paper does all the much protecting.

I doubt one of the most porus materials in the damn household wil prtect your butt from anything that is on a toilet, which isn't much. Your average table has more bacteria than a toilet seat.

and who plunks their bare ass down on a table?

Who eats with their ass? Seems odd to me that some people have no problem understanding that humans are capable of building a contraption to launch themselves into space but apparently think that we haven't come far enough to develop skin thick enough to prevent a few bacteria from entering after contact with our ass cheeks.

Seems like hovering would only lead to MORE pee and poo on the seat.

because it's obviously not about the bacteria.
It's the revolting thought of dozens of guy's urine and fecal matter touching your ass.
I assure you that my piss has no bacteria in it... would you let me pee on you?

Yes, I've sat on some of the most disgusting toilets in the world and don't care anymore.

which is why you wipe it off first? Not that hard to think about. It's not like the seat is a sponge or something. I've never seen clear poo, so it's pretty obvious to tell when it's on there... so you move to the next stall or go to the next place. Most retail stores have their bathrooms cleaned a few times a day so it's not so inconceivable that there is a clean restroom SOMEWHERE near you. Like I said, when you gotta go, you gotta go.

While all mjuszczak threads have an inherent mental health component, I don't think this thread is something that should have been moved to the "Health and Fitness" forum.

I'm not a germophobe, so yes. Obviously if it's covered with piss or pubes or something I'll wipe it down, but otherwise I don't get too paranoid about public toilet seats.

That being said I'll do #2 at home if at all possible. I like doing my business in the comfort of my own home, lol.

Most girls I've talked to use the hover method too. Somebody should invent something to put in the stalls that makes hovering easier.
Like some....seat...you can put your ass on! Great idea!

Montezuma's Revenge in Mexico will make you disregard personal health, even with Mexico's horrific public restrooms.

BTW, I wipe the seat off and sit down bare cheeks.
I figure anything that can give me a disease can't enter through the backs of my thighs.

I don't remember the last time I took a dump in a public restroom. If I had to, I would just wipe and sit down. I'm hardcore like that.
