This may sound like a silly question but its something i would like to discuss. I often go to public bathrooms and squat over the toilet to use the restroom. At work they provide disposable seat covers which i use to cover the toilet to use the restroom. At home i am usually comfortable with sitting on the toilet. Well what is it for you? Do you sit, squat, or cover?

I look at all the seats and look for the cleanest one and sit. Sometimes I use the paper covers if they are available. I've taught my kids to look before they sit! Afterall you don't want to be sitting on anyones "dribble" and of what... ya know?!?! Sometimes people are gross because it's not home and they don't have to clean it up.... GRR.

Yeah if i accidently get even a little on the toilet lid at least i wipe it with toilet paper. But heck no will you ever see me cleaning up someone else's pee.

I don't use public toilets unless I absolutely have to and then it's the squat method. I can't stand the public bathrooms b/c their never clean, their always crowded and their a hassle. [b]~~AT PEACE WITHIN~~ **STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS**[/b]

I am the same way. Unless i absolutely have to. You see the problem on my half is taking a child into the stall creates trouble. My son likes to play peeping tom. LOL!

I don't really think this is a silly question. I often wonder about how people handle being in a public bathroom. Of course because I don't watch what they are doing, I just control what it is I am going to do. There was a time a while back that I would place toilet paper to cover the seat and then there were times that I would just plain squat. Now a days they do have things that you can actually pull out from the wall that is inside the stall itself. You can place the round type of paper on the toilet and proceed with business. You can then dispose of that paper into the toilet because it is environmentally friendly so to speak. It is very important to have bathroom etiquette whether at home or in the public. It is also very important to wash the hands.
