Fanny condensation

On plastic chairs. Just me?

Please tell me it's not just me. It happened tonight at school parents meeting. Stood up after a nice chat with the maths teacher and there is it, the diamond shaped condensation patch of doom.

I nearly name changed because i am very embarrassed, but fuck it.

Nearly peeing myself here - I've never mentioned my foggy fanny to anyone and perfected the bum-slide eons ago. Never thought of it as being condensation before - maybe it would help to shove an ice cube up there.

Ha, I've noticed at least 2 twistslidetwerkers in the canteen today, I felt like winking knowingly and make a little diamond sign ( a la 'twinkle, twinkle little star') with my hands at them GrinGrin

I luffs you all

CockacidalManiac · 10/11/2016 19:04

No, my arse doesn't leak.
I'm going for the condesat theory.

CockacidalManiac · 10/11/2016 19:04

Condensation

Passmethecrisps · 10/11/2016 19:04

I work in a school and can testify that it happens to both men and women, boys and girls.

Not sure the twist and slide is terribly effective really. The old rolled up scarf works a treat though

GlassCircles · 10/11/2016 19:05

Mind - some of the h2o molecules may come from minge sweat, yes. That doesnt mean the damp patch is anything other than h2o molecules though. If you dont get that, I give up.

ClopySow · 10/11/2016 19:07

If the water is condensing out of the air then why isn't the seat wet before you sit on it

Because theres no heat source mind

My fanny is the heat source. If it were piss or sweat of discharge, my clothes would be wet. They aren't.

It disappears extremely quickly. Within a few seconds if you watch. You know, like condensation. Rather than a puddle of piss

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 10/11/2016 19:10

To determine if it's sweat, it would taste salty. A quick discrete lick of the seat when you get up should clear up any confusion, Clopy.

ClopySow · 10/11/2016 19:12

No. Warm air, a source of moisture and cold glass - condensation

But the ice is on the inside. It's not evaporating, it's melting. The condensation on the outside of the glass is caused by warmer air hitting the outside of the cold glass.

ilostit

Next time, i'll quickly turn round, get on my knees and lick it. That'll distract them from my 'ahfuckinghem' piss/sweat/foofjuice/slimetrail.

I have it all. A sweaty fanny (I am so glad I found this as I thought it was just me). I even leave marks on the chair pads (fabric) at school functions. Actually now I take the chair pads off and pretend I prefer sitting on the rock hard seat!

Bleached knickers. Most definitely. Did any of you with bleached knickers struggle getting pregnant... acid fanny kills sperm. Just wondering as I struggled to conceive!

EveryDayIsASchoolDay · 10/11/2016 19:22

Oh my goodness. I've just spent a very happy half hour or so reading this. I'm absolutely decked. clopysow for the win. Thank you so much. The greatest gift ever GrinGrinGrin

ClopySow · 10/11/2016 19:23

No wonder women get belittled and ridiculed by men with stupid threads like this! No - I don't, and neither do the majority of us

Mcfuckingsigh.

Did you read the hundreds of posts where women said they were so relieved it isn't just them. Women are fucking terrified to speak about shit like this because they are belittled, not the other way round.

OP posts:
Passmethecrisps · 10/11/2016 19:35

Absolutely.

Because heaven forbid women (and men) should discuss aspects of their own bodies.

Passmethecrisps · 10/11/2016 19:36

Actually, I recall working out at school that some plastic chairs were better than others. I can't remember but I think the more deeply patterned ones were less problematic than the smoother ones. Or maybe it was the other way round

MrsDmitriTippensKrushnic · 10/11/2016 19:39

We changed chairs in our staff canteen and the new ones are terrible for this. We have three different sorts, two don't attract condensation one does (and I've checked because I'd never noticed it before and had a bit of a panic about it this summer)

In the interests of scientific exploration because I was freaking out a bit I've sat on the sweaty chairs using panty liners, tena pads and normal towels as well as just pants/nasty uniform trousers and I can happily say that fanny condensation occurs no matter what - so it's definitely not vulvic juices. Maybe thigh sweat but I've never seen thigh crease sweat lakes soaked into my crotch either.

I'm so happy this thread exists. Grin

FishyWishies · 10/11/2016 19:42

If you have the sort of undercarriage that flattens out onto the seat then it won't happen. If you are built with a rather graceful arching gappy bit that traps air then you are definitely doomed.

xymalf1 · 10/11/2016 19:47

When women wear thick tights and trousers very unhygenic bacteria like warm damp places. That is why stockings and pencil skirts should be worn so you get nice air circulation. look smarter to.

andypandy60 · 10/11/2016 19:48

Such a funny thread, long time since I've laughed till I've cried! I do suffer with a clammy crutch - I thought it was only me Smile

coffeeandbubbles · 10/11/2016 19:52

When I lived in Australia, this was an hourly concern. All year round!
