Page 11 | Most women hoover above toilet seat in public toilets to pee?

summerfinn · 2023-06-07T06:55:02+00:00

I was out this weekend and had to use the toilet to pee. I normally hoover above toilet seat to pee in public toilets and was thinking to myself this is difficult especially if I need to do a long pee🙈😂 Is this what most women do too or am I being extra germ conscious and should just wipe the seat and sit down? Sorry if tmi but I'm just curious

If everyone sat on the seat, it wouldn’t be covered in piss!!

I always sit. Usually need to wipe the seat cos someone else has missed the bowl.

The worst public toilet I saw had dirty shoe prints on the actual seat!! Actual black marks of shoe tread clearly visible and they’d managed to shit down the lifted lid and back of the seat. Dirty bugger 😠 Toilet was totally unusable because someone decided to practice their gymnastics whilst taking a shit!!

This thread is for some reason reminding me of the WC Fields quote "I never drink water because fish fuck in it."

I heard that there are poo particles in the new hand driers as people never wash hands fully - as taught during Covid- so minute poo particles fly around.
I’m more worried about that.
Mind you I go swimming daily so probably swimming in urine. Also I drink water from a tap that’s probably circulated a few times.

Have you stopped to think that there will be molecules of bus drivers' farts in the air that you breathe?

I should have phrased it differently. I suppose I probably do know some people who don't hover because it's not a conversation I've had with every single person I know or have met. But my close family and friends yes - this has come up at one or two points in conversation and all of them are 100% hoverers!

Yes women are 100% honest about their personal habits in face to face conversation with close family and only lie about it when anonymous on the internet.

Just wipe it, if you want, and sit down. Job done! If the seat looks disgusting though I wouldn't use it anyway, I'd pick a different cubicle.

Hovering is tricky and makes it harder to go. Squatting is better than hovering, but obviously not an option for UK toilets.

'So they all create a viscous circle for each other.'

Ew, a viscous wee circle. 🤢

You ask everyone you know if they sit or hover? No one has ever asked me that in my entire life.

Never hovered and always assume the nasty drips are from hoverers. So they all create a viscous circle for each other. Creating more hoverers.

It's bum flesh not open bits touching the seat ffs ...not open bits. It's the same as putting a hand on a rail if no mess on it.

MovinGroovinBarbie · 07/06/2023 19:54

I put paper on the seat.

I just piss myself to save having to use the plague-infested Petri dishes that are public toilets.

😂

I don't know anyone who doesn't hover. I was taught to hover as a kid so since then it's been pretty standard practice.

On what planet do 90% of toilet seats have wee on them? Jesus, where are you people toileting? A creche?

And I speak as someone who has sons AND used to work at music festivals. Never hovered, never picked up Thigh Plague.

I wonder how the poster came up with this precise percentage.

I always hover over the bog - I’m not sitting in some strangers piss

You could get a wad of tissue and wipe it? Hovering seems nuts to me.

What do the hoverers do if you need a poop and can’t wait till you get home?

Far too logical for some. In the US I’m sure the public loos had paper seat shaped covers in the cubicle you could use.

Doyouthinktheyknow · 07/06/2023 19:41

Never hover, can’t these days due to fucked knees but never have anyway. Don’t see why I would!

Skin is a pretty good barrier!

You do realise that only a fraction of wees are had on public toilets? It's not going to have much impact on the likelihood of UTIs, pelvic floor problems etc.

What a bizarre thing to say. Do you think most women stay at home all day and perhaps do a quick one in Tesco when shopping for their husband's dinner?

DarrellRiversCriminalBehaviourOrder · 07/06/2023 19:39

If you hover, don't you get wee dripping down the inside of your legs towards the end as the flow starts to tail off?

Evaka · 07/06/2023 19:37

Never hovered. All the Dyson gags made me cackle after a beast of a day. Thanks everyone!

libraryquery · 07/06/2023 19:36

I always have a small bottle of hand gel in my bag. Squirt a bit on some loo roll and wipe the seat before use. No need to hover.

SnappyDragony · 07/06/2023 19:10

Stop hovering ya dirty beggars you leave behind your wee splashes for the next unfortunate to have to clean!! And there is nothing worse than plonking your buttocks/thighs on a strangers piss if you haven't checked because you've been busting!! 🤣

Seeing as 90% of public toilet seats have fresh wee on them, I always hover.

It is a vicious cycle. The seats have wee on them because of hoverers, who then hover because the seats have wee on them.

Ah well, when your pelvic floor collapses in later life, remember this.
