...to expect women (using public toilets) to wipe the toilet seat after use?

[feelingfuckingfestiveok]

Last weekend I was out and about shopping on Saturday and in Sunday.

I had to wipe sprays of pale yellow pee off three toilet seats (on seperate visits) before using. Clean your own pee up and leave the toilet as you would wish to find it.

I don't get why people need to hover and risk spraying like a dog anyway.
I thought there are more germs on the door handles.

Since having DCs I utilise my baby wipes and my sanitary antibacterial gel and never sit on a damned seat before using them.

I used to work as a house cleaner when a student at university and the husband used to find ti amusing to piss on the wall around the toilet and then stand there and wathc me clean it up while smirking. He is the step father of one of my closest friends, and until writing that just now I did not realise how creepy that was. I took it as vile but normal.

Also, in the office where I used to work someone used to smear their poo on the floor... women's toilets.

I think we should bring in the french style squat holes. Problem solved

[NewtRipley]

It's often children who do this, IMO. And if they are too young to effectively sort themselves out in a toilet their parents should check.

[HomeIsWhereTheGinIs]

Yanbu. I hate this too. It happens at my office and it's disgusting. Honestly? There should be a law against it. Don't the hoverers see the irony in not wanting to sit in case of invisible germs...but then leaving very visible bodily excretions of their own? Dirty bastards.

[Chivetalking]

So if the consensus is (unsurprisingly) and as always that it's rank, who the frig is doing it? Can't imagine there's a mischievous tinkle elf doing the rounds.

Anyone going to own up to a free range pissing habit?

[flaparoo]

So disgusting and says a lot for the woman who don't even bother to clean up after themselves!

[Chrissy178]

That's disgusting, yanbu! I've seen public toilets that weren't flushed, piss on the seats and one time there was shit smeared on a cubicle wall. Is it so hard to clean up after yourself?

[edamsavestheday]

Yes, completely disgusting. I don't know how some people get to adulthood without being able to use a ruddy loo, fgs. Dirty mares.

[insummeritreinsdeer]

Fucking disgusting. Also those who leave soiled sanitary towels hanging out of bins and tampon applicators on the floor. Would love to see the state of their houses!

[Xfirefly]

agree with a previous poster, I used to be a cleaner and the womens toilets were a disgrace compared to the mens. the place where I worked there was only 5 women so I found it hard to be polite to them knowing they were disgusting.

[JoanRanger]

I expect grown women to be capable of using a toilet.

If nobody sodding hovered the toilets wouldn't get disgusting in the first place.

Went to the dentist on Fri, lady took daughter (2ish) into toilet. Took my son in after - piss all over the seat, toilet not flushed. Good only knows what their own toilet is like! Dis bloody gusting.

[Sallyingforth]

Well I'm a hoverer in public or office toilets.
I lift the seat first (using a piece of paper it it looks dirty), and put a hand behind me to lean back on the wall or cistern. I can relax the pelvic floor completely and everything goes into the bowl. I never splash a drop and would be ashamed to do so.

[LittleMissGerardPoppyButler]

I am a hoverer, I have OCD though and a serious phobia of public toilets :(

I do wipe the seat after me though!

I could never go to a festival, how people use those toilets

[summermovedon]

I dunno, I think watching the number of ladies who don't wash their hands after using the loos is worse. And people wonder why noro spreads like wildfire. It is all I can do to chase after them and ask them WHY? And this is something I see every day in a university setting, so theoretically they are bright young things with the ability to read and think. Yuck.

[gimcrack]

My work toilets are gross. Smears on the seat and wall, and last week a tiny turd on the floor. How the fuck can someone think that's acceptable?

[DoYouLikeMyBaubles]

Women's toilets sometimes astound me.

I've been in some, tampons on the floor, poo on the actual SEAT.

[KrabbyPatty]

I am a hoverer. I could not sit on a public loo seat.

But I never, ever leave anything on the seat - that is disgusting. And I always empty my bladder.

I don't get why people think hovering = spraying.

[HellsAngel81]

Yadnbu, it's vile! And even worse, when they haven't even bothered to pull the flush after using the loo - usually after having what appears to be, the worst case of diarrhoea ever! :-X

[feelingfuckingfestiveok]

LOL at pissy coat tails dark

[DarkTherapy]

Completely agree with OP. Leaving puddles of pee on the seat is lazy and dirty. Hover or not, but wipe it up!

Toilet cubicles are so small these days I wouldn't be surprised if those that hover end up swishing their coats in it all as they exit!

[feelingfuckingfestiveok]

Didn't they smell terrible - I used the ones in the middle bit wher eyou walk down into them off awful enough thento find a pissy seat...

there is a hoverer on the thread - do you check for spray...yew...ewuk.

[shouldnthavesaid]

It's disgusting, I use disabled toilets due to medical issues and am always disgusted with the state of them.

Went to one last week - quite a lot of blood smeared around the bowl and on the sanitary pad bin. I have been in the situation where you get clarted in it but it is NOT difficult to get a little bit of hand paper from the dispenser (or toilet paper) and wipe down the surfaces you've got in a bit of a mess.. Have also encountered toilets covered in diarrhea (even worse), and lots where the floor is worryingly wet and/or sticky.

Even when I was hanging over the toilet in A&E vomming I still made the effort to clean down the loo with the hand gel/soap provided. I could never leave a public toilet in a mess, I'd be too bloody embarrassed.

[MiddleAgeMiddleEngland]

I'm a hoverer, it works fine, no problems with half empty bladders.

You used to be able to buy flushable paper covers for the seat, oval with a hole in the middle like the seat itself. They came in a neat pack you could put in your handbag. I haven't seen them for ages.
