View Full Version : Women and Public Restrooms: A Lack of Decency

I have had my ass ringed in the piss of other women for the last fucking time. Men, you may be unaware of this heathen behavior by some women, and I am here to tell you about it, so you can use it as a defense next you’re accused of not lifting the seat, or not putting it down, or dribbling a little piss on the floor, etc.
I cannot count the times I have gone into clean bathrooms and sat down on the toilet seat (after all, wtf is a seat for) only to feel the cold smelly piss of the last occupant all over my ass. DISGUSTING!!! And completely uncalled for. Ladies, if your delicate ass is too good for the seat, at least have the goddamned decency to wipe your heathen mess of it. If you are one of the women who routinely do this, consider yourself called out, you spineless, wimpy excuse for a carbon-based life form. From this day forward, if I enter a stall and find it covered with piss and I see the person who did it, I will call you out to your ugly damned face. I will do it front of all the women in the bathroom, and I may even follow you out to announce your nasty ways to the world at large. I am making it my personal mission to out the likes of you, and to train you, since your mother/father/guardian couldn’t, in the polite ways of society. I will personally and brutally inculcate manners into you so that you know your pissy mess will not be tolerated. I call on all non-messy women to join me in this effort. I call on all men who know women who do this to relentlessly tease them until the stop their beastly behavior. And I will post this poem in as many public bathrooms as I possibly can, until you are shamed into having a sense of decency:
Oh, there is such irony
that woman would complain to he
who with great care oft fails to miss
the seat and sprinkles it with piss.
But when she’s feeling that same urge
in public to her bladder purge
she often hovers o’er the seat
as if her ass were such a treat
it should not touch, I thus entreat
girls, wipe your piss off toilet seats!!!
Dirty rotten motherfuckers.

Hear hear! I share your anger and outrage! It is simply disgusting and I can never seem to understand how this happens. Women squat and hover over the seat to avoid touching a dirty seat, and they therefore make the seat even dirtier?!? Where is the logic?? If they are experienced hoverers, shouldn't they have learned to avoided peeing on the seat by now? What a bunch of disgusting pigs. If it weren't for people like themselves, they wouldn't have to hover on the seat in the first place. Most public restrooms are cleaned every day, more than most home bathrooms. So what is the big phobia over sitting on the seat? All that touches the seat is the back of your upper thighs...so what is the big deal? Sit the fuck down and take your pee! Damn people.
[slight hijack] This one woman in my office building is an example of one of these toiletseat-phobes. First she washes her hands, doctor-style. Then she gets two paper toilet seat covers. Then she does her business. Then she washes her hands, doctor-style, again. Then uses paper towels to open the door.
Our office bathroom is very clean. It is cleaned every evening, floors, toilets, sinks and all. There are maybe only 8 women on the floor so it's not like there's hundreds of people in there every day. So what the fuck is wrong with this woman?

Sometimes the water on the toilet seat is caused by the water splashing up as the toilet flushes. I've seen this happen. Still ewww, but not as much ewww.
Not to say your anger isn't warranted. Just don't let it blind you completely. Wouldn't you feel awful if you followed a woman out of the bathroom, screaming about her pissing habits, when it was actually toilet water?

I'm just a guy, so perhaps I'm missing something. But if a woman is an "experienced hoverer", then why put the seat down at all? If the thing is so disgusting that she can't stand to touch it, shouldn't she put it up? Or is that too "guy-like"?
Of course, I'm addressing the same women the OP is pitting, so I don't expect an answer ... :)
I wholly agree with you about the heinous seat-peers . . . But you plunk yourself down in the bathroom without looking first?! Pee must be the least of the things you've saat in.

Well, it sounds to me like she isn't creating problems for other people. She's got a thing about bathrooms, and she's found a way to address it, and none of you are the worse for it. I'm not sure why her weird "thing" attracts your ire. It's no skin off your nose, is it? She sounds like she's leaving the place even cleaner than she would if she were more like a pull-down-those-pants-and-go girl, like me.
What the OP is complaining about is a different kind of jerk altogether.

If the seat's too filthy to sit on, it's too filthy to lift up. And if you lift it up with your foot/TP-covered hand, there's a chance it'll fall while you're using it, and hit your back.
I hate seeing this where I work - we have white toilet seats so I can tell when it's urine and when it's just water (and I know of one particular toilet that will get spotted with water during a flush, so I wipe it down after using it to prevent icking out other women). What's worse is that we have always-full paper cover dispensers (aka "ass gaskets") in each stall, so this could be easily preventable.
Our bathrooms are cleaned a couple times a day, but I still wash my hands "doctor-style" because I work in a medical center. We know well how important hygiene is in preventing infections from spreading.

Depending, of course, on how badly I have to pee. :D
Elysian, I see your point, but I'm not talking about a drop or two. I'm talking about the seat covered in piss, as if the nasty bitch were doing the fucking macarena while she was hovering her nasty ass over the seat.
And Eve, I do look at the seat, generally speaking. Because of this, it happens a lot less frequently that it used to, but them I'm still left cleaning up another woman's piss, aren't I? And isn't that still just wrong? Also, lighting does not always allow one to see so clearly, and piss can often be pretty transparent. Generally speaking, I have adopted the practice of grabbing a load of toilet paper and wiping the seat off anyway, wet or dry, just in case, but I'm still positively infuriated that I have to do so, just because some ass is so concerned about her ass.

Oh, I feel your pain! I was complaining about this with a friend of mine a few days ago, and we've both agreed that women are often FAR more disgusting than men when it comes to peeing. I would far prefer to have to put the toilet seat down after my husband goes to the bathroom than wind up sitting in a pee-ring, or having to wipe said pee-ring off with some TP. Ewwwww!!!!

Which has the added advantage of you don't finish and then discover the toilet paper supply has been exhausted in the stall you are in.

Doesn't assuming the skiing position stress certain muscles in such a way as to cause incontinence?
I've always found the whole thing ridiculous. Hey girls, it might be called a toilet seat, but you don't sit on it (although this confusion might explain some of the mess). The evil nasty germs are not going to march from your thighs to your poor sensitive girl parts upon realising that they're in the wrong place.
While we're on the subject of toilet seats, why do women always complain about guys leaving the seat up? Surely this means that any errant drops end up on the porcelain and not on the part you (and the guy in question) have to sit on? I know it's a whole 'battle of the sexes' thing, but it's a battle I'd rather lose.

There is a thread or two on this in GQ.
1) practice in the shower (and kill off any athlete's foot fungus into the bargain) to get your aim & mechanics down.
2) go to work as usual
3) lift the lid
4) pee standing up
4a) snicker to self as others ponder your feet facing the wrong direction
5) wipe the rim if you need/want to
6) wash hands...or not ;)
Of course, there are still idiots who will continue to spray like cats, but it won't be your problem as often.
Men have not yet mastered the art of pooping standing up, but I have been known to study in anticipation of enlightenment horses & cattle doing the same. We'll let you know once we get it figured out.

Heheh. Sorry for laughing, but as a guy, I quickly learned to never trust the public toilet seat. Never. So sitting in a cold puddle of piss hasn't happened to me since I was a kid. But I applaud your quest for decency and hygiene.
(When I was in the Des Moines airport recently, they had these cool cybertoilets in their restrooms that would automagically put a brand new plastic seat liner on the seat for every new customer. You would have loved it.)

If I were using the toilet in a funeral home, which might be located near a closed door at the end of a dark hallway, behind which certain funeral-preparation-related activities might well be taking place, and a machine suddenly and noisily spit out a fresh toilet seat cover as I was about to sit down, it would scare the living Christ out of me.
Let's just say it would be a good thing my ass would be hovering over a toilet bowl.

RIGHT FUCKING ON!!!
I've been railing about this for years. Many times I've wanted to start a Pit thread about it. Thank you for doing what I never had the courage to do. I did rant about it in another thread. I think I called one person a nasty skank because I walked out of the stall she'd just come out of, and it was awash in piss. What made it worse was that she's a Doper (it was at a gathering) and, considering that she probably knows who she is, it means I probably won't be attending any more Doper gatherings. But damn, that's just nasty, and grown women should know better. I'd expect it from a 6-year old.
It's the "hover virus" that causes it. One nasty skank pisses on the seat and doesn't clean up after herself. Another woman comes in, sits down in the piss, says "EWWW, I'll NEVER sit on the toilet seat again!" and proceeds to hover, pissing on the seat and not cleaning it up. It just repeats over and over, replicates, and the few who clean up after themselves are rare.
I'm also now in the habit of wiping the seat no matter if I see anything or not. I like to sit and I'm not going to stop sitting, but I wish I DIDN'T HAVE TO CLEAN UP AFTER NASTY SKANKS BEFORE SITTING!
(I do clean up after anyway, because of the flush spray. I'm considerate that way)
Women, don't be nasty skanks. Mothers, teach your daughters not to be nasty skanks.
I don't touch door handles either. I either use my skirt, or use a paper towel and throw it away first chance I get (not in the corner, what a bitch!).
I'm a dripper. No matter how hard I try, I drip on the seat when I stand up.
:eek: Isn't that what toilet paper is for? Do you not use it? How can you stand to put your pants back on while wet? How can you stand to walk around wet and squishy? Sorry, but EWWWW!
I ALWAYS clean it up, though.
So you wipe the seat but don't wipe yourself? Thanks though.

What y'all need are spring-loaded seats, such that if there's no weight keeping them down, they auto-pop up against the back wall (or tank if it's a tank-style toilet).Or just a latch, or a hook and a bit of string. We men would also like toilet seats that can't occasionally crash back down unexpectedly.

If the seat's too filthy to sit on, it's too filthy to lift up.A toilet seat can have far too much piss on it to want to wipe off and sit down on, and still have plenty of dry places to lift it by. And if you lift it up with your foot/TP-covered hand, there's a chance it'll fall while you're using it, and hit your back.Using your foot, sure. So grab a wad of TP, and lift the seat. Public toilets almost always have plenty of room for the seat to lean back without any risk of falling forward. So unless you're an incredible klutz and just don't pay attention to what you're doing, it's not gonna fall on you.

The simple fact is that women are the most disgusting bathroom using folks in the world. They fire their feces and urine all over the place. They fling their tampons and "eminine products n the most grotesque ways, and they stare with disdain upon those who have to clean.
Both my husband and I have had to clean up after women and they are the most vile and disgusting bathroom using creatures I have ever known.

Sadly, that is the only cool thing about Des Moines International Airport.
At my company, the toilets unfortunately have this problem that if you put the toilet paper towards the front of the bowl, it won't flush down, so these mounds of toilet paper either build up or people treat it like the leper stall and all wait in line for the other ones. Ew.

So what the fuck is wrong with this woman?At first I thought I might have been your "toilet seatphobe" til I saw that you were in Va. The reason I wash my hands before I go to the bathroom is because oftentimes, I've been out in the field taking soil samples (usually soil samples contaminated with hazardous materials). I'm certainly not letting potentially toxic material anywhere NEAR my female parts. And thought I no longer work in the same office building, the reason I took dampened soaped towels in there, was that even with only a small handfull of women on our floor, SOMEONE was a seat peer. UGH!! So, I'd wash my hands, arm myself with paper towels to wash the seat with, go to the bathroom, and then come and wash my hands again.
I was SO glad when we moved to our own small office, where the receptionist was the only other girl in the office and we had our own bathroom.

Actually, this is similar to a pet peeve of mine. I don't mind people who use toilet seat liners or who line the toilet seat with paper towels if there aren't any. What I object to is the ones who do this and then leave the seat draped in toilet paper or toilet seat liner. Look, lady, if you're too delicate to clean up after yourself, why should I have to do it?
I've also got a question for the Teeming Millions which has bothered me for about 18 years. Back when I used to have to clean the toilets at the end of the day at McDonalds, every so often a stall in the ladies room would be covered in shredded toilet paper, kind of like a giant hamster nest. It wasn't wet, at least not the top layer, and I never understood why women did it. Any explanations?

I might have the answer. I just get pissed off when there is no paper towel. Hand dryers take too damn long and how the hell do you dry off your face if you just washed it prior to eating? McDonalds do not have paper towels.
So you go over to a stall with your wet hands and pull reams of cheap toilet paper that dissolves and breaks up on your hands and face into little pieces immediately, and if you are not careful or don't give a shit, you can have lits bits of toilet paper strewn all over the place.

Preach on, sistah.
I have this friend where I work. I like her a whole lot, one of my favorite coworkers, actually. But the other day, I went into the bathroom just as she came out to discover that the entire toilet seat was liberally covered in sprayed piss. I did an about face, asked her if she'd just peed all over the toilet seat... her response? "Yes I hover, I'm not putting my ass on that nasty seat!" So, what, we're all supposed to wallow in your urine, just because your butt is too precious to touch the seat, and you're too dainty to mop up the three pints of piss you left on the seat? I asked her who was supposed to clean it--"That's what we have a cleaning crew for," evidently.
Regrettably, I just stared at her, slack-jawed.
I... I'm not even going to repeat the internal monologue that happened there.

I would assume the answer is Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, better known as OCD.
Or a person with a compromised immune system. I have lupus and before I got things under control I was sick 15 times in six months, including several bouts of strep throat and twice with walking pneumonia. I am now one of those chronic hand washers, complete with pump bottles of hand sanitizer on my desk, in my van, in my purse, etc.

What I don't understand is, if your piss spray is wide enough to go on the seat, how come it doesn't hit the backs of your calfs? I am trying to imagine what posistion you would pull to 'hover' and the only way I can see it being possible would be to have the backs of your calfs (calfs or calves?) pretty much touching the toilet seat making them well within the range of your piss. I also don't understand why these woman have such a chronic phobia of touching a (clean) toilet seat with their asses.
Of course what everyone has had too much class to mention so far is when you go in the stall and the liquid sprinkled over the seat is not clear or white, but pink and red. Eeeew.

People are so damned thoughtless it drives me bananas. I can understand the reluctance to sit on a public toilet seat (it's usually irrational, but I can understand the impulse). But why the hell can't they lift the seat to hover? Oh, because nobody matters except them, I forgot.
I'm not overly delicate or phobic about it - even if the seat is pissy, I'll just dry it off and sit down, since pee doesn't usually carry many germs. However, I am one of those people who tries not to touch the pull handle on my way out of the restroom. This is because I know the same kind of self-centered jerk is out there who will wipe her ass and then walk out of the bathroom without washing her hands. Sometimes just for good measure she'll blow her snotty nose or indulge in some nice wet coughing into her palm before grabbing the handle. Yech! (I don't throw my paper towels on the floor though!)
Oh and I don't think hovering causes incontinence; but tensing your leg muscles to hover prevents you from completely emptying your bladder, so if you did it all the time you'd be more prone to UTIs.

HUH? I have never heard of this. Don't you drip urine on your clothing and on the floor, etc? How could it be easier to wipe standing up? :confused:
:o Well, echoing Karl Grenze, that's the way I was taught. When it did occur to me to try it sitting down, well, I had a hard time cramming my hand between my fat thighs and figured it was easier to keep doing it standing up. But, geez, you make it sound like it's still pouring when I stand up. It doesn't take but a moment of rest for the dripping to stop and it's safe to stand up, for pity's sake.
And I'll go on the record and admit that, if I've sprinkled when I tinkled, I was a sweetie and wiped the seatie.

I'm fighting the good fight, ladies! I have been known to announce to the bathroom at large "Ewwww, someone peed all over the seat!" when finding such a mess. Knowing full well that all the ladies in there can see the culprit who just walked out of that stall before I went in.
smirk, I thought I was the only one "mean" enough to do this. Only, I'm usually really dramatic and loud about it. Like "OH GROSS, someone just peed on the seat, and then LEFT it there, some people.................etc".

Women can be absolute pigs in public restrooms. Last weekend I went out to a club with some friends. There was one working stall (out of maybe 5) in the ladies room. The others were plugged full of stopped up toilet paper and one even had a beer bottle in the toilet bowl (did someone actually think that would flush? and who brings their beer into the stall with them anyway?). The one working stall had piss all over the toilet seat.
Having used many a skanky Port O Pot, I've gotten pretty good with the hover technique (I also ride horses and jumping position is pretty damn close to the hover). However, I always lift the seat first. Always. You can always lift it with a TP covered hand, and I've never had the seat spring back and hit me. Think about it. Guys have to lift the seat all the time--it's not like the seats have some kind of spring back recoil action. Okay, even if you're not considerate, lifting the seat gives you a larger target so you have less chance of "splash back" if you miss.
Our office recently remodeled the bathrooms and they all have automatic flushers. They're wonderful things. It boggled my poor little brain, but before we had them there were numerous times I'd walk into a stall only to find an unflushed toilet. Who neglects to flush after they've finished?

Thank you for that. I don't care what goes on the stall as long it's left clean.
And wow, I can't believe this thread is two pages long!

Hail to this thread! Messy pissers are a big peeve of mine.
Ever notice too, that when someone doesn't flush, it's never just a little pee or a little poo pellet? Nope, it's always some slimy, chunky diarrhea or a period that looks like the chum you see fed to sharks.
