I HATE that!! I'm with you; those women should obviously be in the men's room! >:(

OMG I hate this. When did women start this, when did it become "cool"?

I should have lived in a different era. I don't fit-in with what people think is ok behavior in these times.

I've always hovered. I NEVER leave a mess behind either, that's just nasty.

I'd use a urinal if I didn't have to expose my ENTIRE ASS to pee in one.

We take the good with the bad. There are plenty of nasty seat sitters too, I mean you can't leave "change" in the toilet if you weren't sitting to shit, right? Of course, if you squatters weren't in such a rush you'd check to see if your load required two flushes... ;-)

I *hate* that too. When I bring the girls into a public restroom, I whip out wipes and toilet paper and clean the seat before their tushies even touch it. Oh, and I use my foot to flush too.
People are just so freakin' disgusting!

*sigh* it always makes me laugh when women start complaining about men being messy in the bathroom. I think... do you EVER go into a public women's restroom? Women are complete disgusting slobs it seems when they think no one is watching. Yeah, blech - and definitely GROSS!!!

Well, you can always resort to public shaming. There have been several times that I've gone into a stall as someone is coming out to find pee splattering the seat. My reaction is a loud "yuck" followed by stomping out to the sink, soaking paper towels with warm water and soap, then returning to the stall to clean the seat, announcing to everyone else at the sink that someone just peed all over the place. I make a scene and the woman is usually mortified but I figure she deserves it. Only if I follow her in though, otherwise, I just find another stall. And I always check first. Always.

We have 5 women in our office and 3 stalls, so we pretty much all have our "favorite" stall and stick to them.

Occastionally someone is in "my" stall so I have to use another, someone that uses that stall is a seat peeer, I'm trying to figure it out since there is only 4 other choices.

Think I'm going to have to pick the other other stall as my backup from now on.

Women are PIGS in opublic restrooms! I know that as a fact. First from working as a cleaning crew in a nightclub and then to 20 years in the business as a manager. They do things to restrooms and flush things down toilets that would make your head spin around linke Linda Blair in The Exorcist! Nasty, vile, disgusting pigs!!!

Oh I hate this! And they have all those seat cover paper thingies we can use now. And it's still nasty! I've been known to use three of those paper potty covers and still have to somewhat hover. Blech!

Ever have one of those paper seat protectors get wet while you're peeing, stick to your butt, and not realize it until you've pulled up your pants? That's worse than sitting in pee.

I started to say something about that last night Da Goddess. Those things are worse than useless. Might as well just gather some paper towels and plan to clean up the seat before you go in there IMO.

The real problem comes in when you get in one of those public restrooms that doesn't have paper towels, just those uselss air blower things.

This thread shows me that some times, I just shouldn't hit the "comments" button!

Joanie, I have a *bad* image stuck in my brain, now!

Da Goddess, yes! Blech! I hate it when that happens! I always put one on the seat, watch the all the stuff soak through, put another one on...and on... I don't understand why it soaks through. They appear to be made of wax paper, evidently not. And it doesn't matter what side you use of those paper things, shiny or flat, it all still soaks through. I hate public restrooms...

Y'all were wearing pants, weren't you? Otherwise, I betcha you could flip the seat up, flip the skirt up , stand on the toilet, squat down and do anything you need with no splatter. Both boys and girls used to do that in places with Turkish toilets, and both sexes wearing robes. Hell, they used to make urinals for females, back in the 50s. Only worked right with skirts, though. Quitcher whinin, transvestites.

Yer a brave fella, dude. Pickin' on da wimmin 'bout peein'.

Whoo - you obviously think these women can't *find* you!

I was being perfectly rational and constructive. Trousers are inconvenient for squatting-style elimination. Remember the old guy congratulating someone on joining a Highland regiment, and why? I used to hang out (no, I don't wear kilts) with a woman who always wore long skirts, and regimentally, at that. She claimed it was healthier, and made it very convenient if she wanted to pee in the yard. There's an excellent book on this subject, called "The Bathroom", by someone named Kira. I think it's long out of print, alas. There's a story in there about the woman challenging her man to a pissing match, for distance. "He steps up to the mark, smugly confident of victory. She shakes her head. 'Uh Uh. No hands!' "

I second Madfish on this one, women are gross in public bathrooms. I worked at Toys R Us back in my teens doing maintenance (IE: janitor) and the women's room was always nastier than the men's with one exception. Somene in the men's room deliberately clogged the toilet with a whole roll of TP and took a dump on top of it (and at night too, so it sat until 6am when I came in and was nice and ripe).
That about evened the score for about a whole year of nasty women's room messes.

I've heard women talking about piss on the toilet seats before - and I've always wondered how exactly that happens when women sit down to pee.

I hadn't thought about the "hover" factor...
