I grew up camping and on boats. Using the forest and just hanging over the edge of the boat to urinate was second nature. Now that I am all grown up I hate public washrooms. I avoid them as much as possible. I would rather pee in the bushes. How about you are you a public washroom person or a tree person?

LMAO Howdy Whywiki, unfortunately for me there are never to many trees available when I need one. I make use of the public restroom when and if I have to. Although like you I dislike them.

Ah yes, give me a tree anyday.. as a matter of fact, we have an old outhouse on our premises, which I love to use! If it's tolerable weather that is.. I don't, use it that is, real often, but it makes a great second bathroom for a household of four adults and one child.. I don't think anyone else ever uses it! so you could say it's my own private bathroom.. I'll even leave the door open.. if my son's friends across the field are desperate enough to watch me with binoculars, oh well.. I'm sure I don't have to worry about it, but I'm just goofy enough to think of it.. (and still not care!)
-Where we go camping (for free) it really irks me there are rose bush brambles everywhere, and like spotlights at night, so off I trek to the outdoor privvy about a mile away, or so it seems.. (The secret is being the first in our group to arrive and pick a camping spot closer to the outhouse!! either that or take a weed whacker to all those thorny bushes! Maybe that's it!) Even thorny bushes might be better than public restrooms.. though they do come in handy when you're on the road with hubby who hates to stop..

Well if I'm in a city I tend to use public washrooms to avoid getting arrested! haha
But out in the bush I'm happy to let it all hang out and in my boat it is a 'bucket and chuckit' for a more serious session!
Reminds me of the two chaps peeing off the side of a bridge one night going home from the pub. One said 'The water's cold tonight' The other said 'Yes, and deep too'.

I also hate to use public restrooms. I try to avoid it if I can, but if I know I won't be home for quite awhile and I really have to go, then I just do it since I don't have a choice. If I know I'll be home soon, then I just usually try to hold it until I get home! I have to admit, I'd still rather use a public bathroom than a tree, but neither option is very appealing to me! lol I usually try to carry a small bottle of hand sanitizer in my purse so that I can use it if I get caught in a public bathroom. It always makes me feel better to know I can use the sanitizer afterward!

I avoid public bathrooms at all cost.
I use the bathroom at home only, and have been known to cut an outing short to use the bathroom.So to answer your question i'd rather use a tree before i use a public washroom.If it's anything other than to wash my hands or something of that nature.

I could do either one unless the bathroom is completely disguisting like I've seen so many times. Then by all means I'll take that tree, LOL... And I have been in situations where I had to pull side the road and handle it. When nature calls we must answer, ROFLMBO! Great topic!

Hehehe, I park furthest away from the door in walmart parking lots. That way if I have to pee I can just sit on the edge of the 'running board' and trickle down under the car. That's one of the benefits of wearing a skirt (which I never am anymore), is that you can just lean up against a tree and nobody could even tell what you were doing at a glance. I've been in some public restrooms that were too gross to even consider using. I don't even like them when they're clean... I'm definitely a tree-peer, though, I'm not into squatting behind bushes. Hehehe.

Well, I am a woman so I don't think I would be going pee in the bushes. I, too, grew up with camping and fishing and boating and hiking and drinking with my friends. I learned to go to the bathroom anywhere if I had to. But I still would not do it in public. If there is a washroom I will use it. Or I will find one if I have to go. I am more civilized than that and wouldn't go in the bush, my friend.
