uhhhhh...... I just go. I'm not going to get any infection for sitting on a non-ionized-super-cleaned with triple-action bleach seat.

At my work, we have 3 stalls and 2 urinals for like 75+ employees on the first floor.

That being said, I try to stifle my business until I get home, but if it becomes excruciatingly painful, I use the seat covers. The restroom is extremely smelly, since it seems to have like 10 year old stale piss inside the walls or something. This does help cover up my toxic fumes tho :D

I hate using public restrooms for anything other than "number 1"

but if I have to go I use a seat cover. if there is "stuff" on the seat I squat.

For semi-private places like: University library, Dorm restroom, workplace (office w/ plenty of restrooms throughout the building):

if it looks clean, I'll sit on it. If I have to wipe stuff off the seat, I'll wipe it clean and then cover the whole seat with a double layer of TP (strips folded over.... I'm lazy :p). If they provide a seat cover, I'll use it even if the seat isn't dirty.

If it's a public place (stadium, University student center, some of the University lecture halls, any place in a public park / transit / shopping area, I'm going to do the two-layer TP thing regardless (unless it's regularly cleaned, like seemingly every hour in some airports and the janitor is still in the bathroom and the seat is positively gleaming).

If I can't see anything either smeared or growing on it, my ass will be sitting there.

Besides, it's still debateable whether my ass or the toilet seat is dirtiest.


;) :D

The only thing one might have to worry about would be a necrotizing strep. but come on what are the odds?...

Bare seater.... skin is all you need to protect you in most cases. If it's really that bad I'll go somewhere else.

You guys who put toilet paper or seat covers on before sitting down are PUSSIES!!

Do you really think you're going to get a disease or get sick from having germs ON YOUR LEGS??


=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

On second thought, I think I figured it out, and the answer pleases me - this forum isn't really stock full of males, it's packed with women!

Like I said Flesh Eating Disease in the bung hole would suck. Avoid visible fecal matter or blood transmitting fluids and you should be ok though.

Yeah, yeah, but there probably isn't flesh eating disease on any toilet seat in America other than Oprah's - and you don't straddle the "prong" of the toilet seat, do you?

The ONLY time I drop the kids off at the pool in public is at work, in the members restroom of the Texas House of Representatives. None ever goes in there since there is no session, so I trust that the seats clean. In Any other situation, I'll drop whatever I'm doing, and go home, or I'll just hold it.

WTF Squatting? I would imagine that would just cause a big splash and you'd end up with poop water on your shoes or something. I usually use the toilet seat cover or do the skis if nothing is available, but I do that not because of disease but to see if there is any wet spots from people peeing on the seats. I don't want other peoples peepee on my bum.... thank you very much!

seat cover for me, only because I HATE that first second of freezing seat connecting with my butt (yes, I have sensitive skin, it's a trait the ladies like :) )

A "seat cover" would be one of those ass-gaskets "thoughtfully provided to you by management"...
