Do you sit, hover or play it by ear? Grin

Hover

otterlieriver · 22/07/2017 18:27

Sit.

Polter · 22/07/2017 18:28

Sit

Madeyemoodysmum · 22/07/2017 18:29

Depend on how clean it looks

JacquesHammer · 22/07/2017 18:29

Sit.

Never even crossed my mind to hover

Redredredrose · 22/07/2017 18:29

Sit, after a quick wipe round with some paper.

grasspigeons · 22/07/2017 18:30

Depends on cleanliness. Generally hover

HunterHearstHelmsley · 22/07/2017 18:30

Sit.

Hoverers always get piss everywhere and don't wipe it up.

ExcitingButScaryTimesAhead · 22/07/2017 18:31

I always hover in public toilets. I hate seeing pee on the seat. Even some women don't seem to clean up after themselves.

Boredwithmyname · 22/07/2017 18:31

Hovering is totally gross. It just leaves the seat covered in wee for the next person (which still is unlikely to be dangerous but is disgusting). Hands up who knows anybody who has caught anything from a public loo?

UntilTheCowsComeHome · 22/07/2017 18:31

Sit. My bladder muscles won't release until my butt cheeks are in contact with a loo seat, don't know why.

TheMogget · 22/07/2017 18:32

Hoverers are the reason toilets can be grim just sit down!

OstentatiousWanking · 22/07/2017 18:33

Sit. If they are ditty I go somewhere else.

MissingWinter · 22/07/2017 18:33

Neither
I won't use them at all.

MajesticWhine · 22/07/2017 18:33

Wipe with paper and then sit.

ginflumpsandzebraprint · 22/07/2017 18:33

Sit I don't trust the locks so have my foot against the door, impossible if trying to hover unless you're a Jedi

ijustwannadance · 22/07/2017 18:33

I can't pee without contact with loo seat either.

Titsywoo · 22/07/2017 18:34

Wipe and sit.

I hate hoverers. They piss everywhere or drip on the edge of the seat. I shouldn't have to clean up your wee.

jay55 · 22/07/2017 18:34

Sit

Titsywoo · 22/07/2017 18:36

Although not those metal ones with no loo seat. I avoid them if possible but if not there is no choice but to hover. Not that it matters they are so disgusting they usually can't get much worse!

museumum · 22/07/2017 18:37

Sit. It's only the backs of your thighs - unless you've very odd anatomy your genitals should be nowhere near the seat.

MsJamesDeanBradfield · 22/07/2017 18:37

Hover.

Sit... I don't want to stand in people's piss myself therefore I sit!

Bunbunbunny · 22/07/2017 18:38

Sit, will check it's clean first and agree those metals ones are awful. If my IBS is playing I have no choice but to sit as I can't hover that long!

MsSusanStoHelit · 22/07/2017 18:39

Hoverers are the reason why public loos get manky. Ffs just sit down, all of you.
