Definately squat, unless there is toliet seat covers, then I'll sit.

I used to travel a lot as a child, and saw a lot of public restrooms. My friends used to take toilet paper and spend five minutes cutting the squares to make a seat cover. Mom said, "If you go into a public bathroom and it smells reasonably clean AND there's toilet paper ON THE ROLL, it means someone goes in there periodically and cleans, so you don't have to drive yourself crazy worrying about the toilet seat. But when in doubt, squat."

Thanks, Mom!

If the bathroom appears relatively clean, I'll check the seat to make sure it hasn't been urinated on. If it's clean, I'll sit. If not, I'll squat.

People are so petrified about getting sick from a tainted toilet seat. I'd like to ask everyone out there...Have you ever met ANYONE who has caught a disease from a toilet seat? I haven't. I would hazard a guess that improper hand washing after using the toilet spreads more germs than sitting on the seat.

I have a shy bladder, so I have to feel absolutely comfortable to pee, so I can't squat. But then if the bathroom isn't clean, the door won't close, or I just feel uncomfortable in that bathroom my bladder gets "scared" so I move to a different bathroom.

My mom tells me that she squats.

You must not have much else to think about.

It actually depends on the bathroom. If it is extremly dirty looking I squat. If the bathroom looks clean, I'll use a seat protector.


Is this for a survey or something?

To the people who squat:

Please wipe the seat after you've pissed all over it. My daughter (who's five) has sat on pissy seats because she was about to pee on herself and wasn't thinking of wiping off the seat before she sat. Have you ever sat in someone else's pee? I can assure you that it's ten thousand times grosser than the invisible cooties that you might think that are on the seat. It's also much easier to PASS ON A DISEASE if you happen to sit on a pissy seat.

Thanks!
