Weird bathroom phobias?

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

For a very long time in my life, I would resolutely refuse to use a public toilet for my bowel movements, a practice that caused me extreme distress on days the cafeteria at school served chili.

After carefully examining the illogic of this stance, I can now (reluctantly) eliminate in a public restroom.

BTW, my definition of “public restroom” is one which anyone can use: restaurants, gas stations, and (g-d forbid!) rest stops. (For the record, I have pooped in each of these situations.) The restrooms where i work, or in motels/hotels is NOT public. How’s that for illogic?

I just gotta know. Please indulge me an answer.

How did you find this 16 year old thread?

Also, I hate to feed your uneasiness but It seems to me that people as a habit go to the last stall. When you are defecating or urinating you are more vulnerable to attack. Primal instinct makes one want to hide away from the mainstream as far as possible.

So if you’re a germaphobe the LAST stall is the ickiest.
