To all of the women who hover rather than sit.....if you pee on the seat, do you clean it up?

 

[AllyandJack]

Actually, I always wipe the seat down after I hover - I never actually check to see if anything got on the seat, I just wipe the seat down after I'm done. In fact, at work, it's sort of required since there is a strong flush and THAT usually sprays water all over the bowl. So, even though THAT is not my fault, I clean that off, too.

I don't hover. I just look at the seat EVERY time before I sit and wipe it off. I don't hover

I ALWAYS wipe the seat. I would be embarrassed for someone to go into a stall I just left and see anything on the seat.

I line the seat with toilet paper.

I line the seat with toilet paper.

Me too, but I got so aggravated when they came out with those auto flushers. In fact my first experience was at Disney World and I had the seat all nicely lined and turned around to sit and the sensor went off. Well those things are powerful and they sucked the paper right off the seat. Ok, so I very carefully did it a second time and tried to be faster, but it happened again. Well I was getting upset, but I was determined and finally outwitted that damn sensor.

Only you, woman, only you.

I remember a sign that my friend's parents put up in the poolhouse bathroom at their house:

"If you sprinkle when you tinkle, please be neat and wipe the seat".

That came to my mind as soon as I read the first post on this thread! Geez the random things we remember from childhood

They also had a sign out side by the pool that said "Welcome to our OOL. Notice there is no "P" in it so please keep it that way!"

I wipe before and after. If I hover I end up having to go again very soon. Weird I know but that's me. I hate it when people don't clean up after themselves and even worse when they don't even flush. The worse though is NOT WASHING your hands. That is so yukky. Last week I went to the movies and a lady didn't wash afterwards. I followed her into the theater (we were both going to the same one) and she sat down beside her boyfriend/husband whatever, and started sharing popcorn with him. I wanted to yell up to him that he really should be careful eating the popcorn with her.

At work I use the toilet seat liners. Sometimes when it flushes and pulls the paper in it gets water all over the seat. I wipe that up. If I hover I always wipe, regardless. And if someone before me hovered and didn't wipe up I wipe that up (yeck!) because there have been those occasional times where while you are hovering you lose your balance and touch the seat (YUCK!). In the travel size section at Target I found those antibacterial toilet seat wiper thingies. Best invention ever!

I hover, pee, then wipe if it needs it.

A friend of mine that's in med school always says "just sit, there are no toilet seat diseases", as this was apparently covered in one of her classes. If everyone would just sit, this wouldn't be an issue. The backs of peoples thighs are so much cleaner than their hands could even dream of being, and think about how many doorknobs we touch!

That's what always sort of baffles me. In using a toilet normally, your naughty bits don't touch the toilet seat, only the backs of your legs do. What's going to jump off the back of someone's leg onto a toilet seat, that wouldn't jump off the back of their leg onto, say a poolside chair?

I totally agree.

I am just disgusted by folks leaving their sprinles on the seat. I really don't think alot of the hoverers realize how much they are leaving behind.
