AIBU to actually not like using other peoples Toilets...

[CheekyLittleSox]

the "Dog shat on my picnic" got me thinking...

If me, Dh & Kids go out anywhere or if i go out say shopping or somewhere. I will NOT use a public toilet. If i go to friends houses i have to "think" about going before i ask to use their loo. If the house seems unkept or messy or dirty i wont use it. But if its a relatives house i will.

AIBU to prefer to shat and piss on my own lav or am i just been a fussy cow.

Present tense is 'shit'. Past tense is 'shat'. 'I shat in my friend's loo yesterday' but 'I would never shit in a public loo'

What's the past partciple then? Shatten?

I WILL use a friends loo but will judge her terribly if its full of brown limescale

When you're old like me, you will HAVE to go when your and where bladder dictates - or start wearing Tena Lady !!!

Although I used to fail to poo for a whole week when staying in a friend's caravan - the toilet block had doors that had huge gaps at the bottom. For some reason I just could not do it.

Nowadays I will go anywhere - but not on a picnic rug of course.

If I gotta go, I gotta go. Public loo, private loo, hedgerow... even once or twice in a bin bag in my car... but then I do have a medical condition that means you cant be picky when you get the urge to go - I get about 3 seconds warning :D

Suddenly using a public loo doesn't seem so bad huh?

Cheeky - I know it well and it stinks - even worse are the loos in Lightwaves leisure centre - it wasn't til i moved that I realised that not all swimming pool loos are that disgusting

King, correct!

YABU... I think so anyway. But it's up to you if you want to spend hours crossing your legs and jumping up and down when you're bursting .

I don't suppose your bum minds much where it gets plonked...

YADNBU. I pee only if I have a real need. And then I feel a little bit violated.

The trick in cities is to pop into a nice expensive hotel for a coffee and avail yourself of the facilities.

Has anyone seen the film Hall Pass? If so you will know which scene this thread brings to mind...

oops brings to my mind

I'm another one from the "if you've gotta go...." camp.

Fortunately I was blessed with a large-capacity tank, so I can usually avoid going anyway too unsavoury. Or I just squat/hover and hold my breath!

LOL at the MIL waiting outside with her rubber gloves on! I bet she has a pink mat on the toilet lid.

My OH works 12 hour shifts - yet waits til he gets home to dump in my toilet? Why FFS???? Why the fuck does he think we want to smell the contents of his gut??? If ever there was a good case for divorce.......

I won't go anywhere else. Its not the germs that bother me though, it's the thought of someone walking passed and hearing. Last summer I was doing between sleek and thirteen hour shifts and the one and only time that I had to pee, someone came into the office, directly past the toilet door and asked for me. I couldn't look him in the eye or shake his hand.

When I was about fourteen I went on holiday in a caravan with a friend and her family. Bad times. Bad times indeed. Although I ate a heck of a lot, not once did I "go". I must have go e up several dress sizes by the end of the week!

It's so anti-social to fuss about a public loo - unless you have an immune definciency. Why are you all so special??! If it's not clean, or it smells, wait till you get home. I'll use it if paper, soap and water provided - like home actually.

What do you really think will happen to you. What about the poor sod who might just want to sit down after you. Get over it.

How strange! I expect it is down to mothers making a big fuss about sending DCs into a public loo on their own.

Oh YANBU at all!!!

I have friends who think I don't use the loo or drink...... If you saw their home you would'nt either. I love them, but I also love my health!

I prefer to use my own. Worst toilet experience was when I was about 23 wks pregnant, we were in Hong Kong (or was it Malaysia?), long queue, half the loos regular looking ones, half the weird ones where you stand/squat over what looks a bit like a shower tray with a big hole in it. I got a weird one, and sods law the door wouldn't lock so I'm trying to squat whilst leaning forward enough to hold door shut, finding it extra hard to balance due to bump. To make it worse I had a bit of a dodgy tummy too after 2 weeks of local cuisine which I hadn't quite adjusted to

I have a friend who was almost phobic about it as a teenager. She came over to my house for a sleepover and walked home (admittedly just across the road) at 3am in her PJs so she could use her own loo. Nutter.

I can go anywhere and i reckon ther e are plenty of people who ask to go in other peoples houses just for a nosy around!

good point piebald it's fun seeing what toiletries, pictures, books etc are in other people's bathrooms :)

cheeky I think you have issues!!
