Who are these women who are peeing all over the seat??

[Jalapeñomel]

I will never understand how grown women pee all over the seat, and then don't wipe it off afterward. It's gross enough that you pee on the seat, but not wiping it down is disgusting and vile.

[Dorothy Zbornak]

Do you work in my office? We've had shit smeared outside of the bowl more than once. Fucking disgusting.

Sent from my crappy club for jerks.

[TrickyBob]

If I ever dribble, I clean it off. I am anal about that actually, I will check every single time I pee just to make sure because I think it is so gross when people just leave it.

[Jalapeñomel]

I always check after I pee and after I flush.

I just don't get this at.all.

[blueshirt2003]

Some people are just nasty.

[Deleted]

It's the ones the hover. They don't realize that they are the ones that make the bathrooms disgusting.

[ErinExpat]

Omg, this is the worst here. All the women here are hoverers.

Some of the women from Mainland stand on the seat and leave shoe prints, as well.

Agreed! There is always pee or some other sort of something disgusting on the toilet seats or on the floor.
There are bathrooms that actually have signs (usually pictures, very entertaining) instructing people not to stand on toilet seats because it is such a common problem. 

[nahoku]

It's totally the hoverers.

[ErinExpat]

Julia, yes! The signs are hilarious. Again, it depends on where you are (a hotel bathroom is much better than a rail station bathroom) but this is our lot, it seems.

Metro, airport, and mall bathrooms are the worst! 
And I wish I had a pic of the sign to PIP, H has one on his iPhone, I think from his office bathroom, I wish I had it now.

It IS the hoverers! It's ass, people - you're not putting your face in the toilet seat.

That said, I don't want to sit in your cold pee

JUST this morning I went into a stall that was just.... foul.  And I thought about this- how can you not know you just have a fricking blow out and how can you not think "I should look to make sure all is well".

There was shit (literally) ON the toilet seat.  ON it, like the pee we're talking about.

How can a person not look at make an effort to wipe off???

[underwaterrhymes]

Who the fuck STANDS on a toilet seat? What the hell?

People who hover probably don't go into movie theaters either.

The Chinese. I think they are confused because so many are used to using the toilets that are basically porcelain holes in the ground or troughs that you hover over (I wish I were kidding here). And it isn't just a lady problem according to DH.

Yes. I know. I have lived in Eastern Europe and they have squat toilets there too. You don't climb up on the toilet, however.

[BaliHai]

This is a huge problem at my workplace, too. Last week I opened a stall and there was blood on the seat, as well as an unflushed toilet. People.are.nasty.

[kcr1972]

If you have ever been in a position where you have to clean bathrooms you learn really quick women are justy as nasty as men!

I am not a good hoverer so this pisses me off so bad when there is piss all over the seat and floor. Thank god for the ass gasket seat liners.

Okay, how about Asians visiting Western countries then? Haven't you ever noticed footprints on toilet seats in major cities or popular vacation destinations (like Las Vegas, for instance)? That's from people climbing up on the toilets to squat.

I actually haven't noticed this anywhere and I used to live in Orlando and work for Disney.

I can understand how someone who is not used to a flush toilet might be a bit mystified as to how to manage it as I certainly cringe every time I walk into a bathroom during my travels and it's a squatter.

The conversation, however, seemed to be revolving around office bathrooms. I'm trying to figure out how someone who grew up with flush toilets thinks it's preferable to stand on the seat.

Sadly, I have had vast experience with squatters. I am not a fan.

I did some googling and found this little tidbit: Many Asians consider squat-style Asian toilets to be more hygienic than Western toilets because no part of the body touches them. Studies have shown that people who use Asian-style squat toilets are less likely to get hemorrhoids than people who use Western-style toilets. David Pierson wrote in the Los Angeles Times: “Squat toilet habits are hard to break in China, particularly among the older generation. Women's public restrooms commonly include signs asking visitors not to stand on the seats. The telltale sign it's too late? A set of footprints.”

We have sheet on the wall in our bathroom that says the age old "If you sprinkle when you tinkle, please be best and wipe the seat"

The hoverers don't read it.

YES.  Assholes.  Just wipe and sit like the rest of us and we won't have to wipe your fucking pee off the seat. 

[underwaterrhymes]

It may well be true that squat toilets are more hygienic. I think my coworker who peed all over her pant leg may disagree, though. LOL.

 I think I would generally disagree as well. I feel like I am walking into a stall covered in pee (the floor at the very least). The floors are always wet and covered in TP remnants and who knows what else was tracked in on people's shoes and then stuck to the wet floor. I come out feeling like I need to shower in bleach. 

[underwaterrhymes]

Oh, I think they're foul. They generally stink and I feel like I need to scrape my shoes every time I leave the bathroom. There was one I encountered in Turkey that had me gagging.

[ErinExpat]

The hemorrhoid thing is related to the angle. If your knees are higher than your ass, for lack of more scientific terminology, isn't it supposed to eliminate strain?

We discussed this once before, didn't we? A special seat for pooping? A toilet accessory of some kind? Tamb! Lol
