If they're clean it doesn't bother me, but I won't sit on the seat. Once I was absolutely terrified to use on in a state park. It was on of those port-a-potties disguised as a real tiolet. I could feel a cold breeze coming up from it.....*shudders* LOL!  |

Public restrooms are some of the real life nightmares out there . I can understand some one missing the toilet while doing the #1 , but the #2 ? Gross ! I think they do this on purpose . At the workplace it can get pretty nasty also . Malcontent coworkers will take out their frustrations in a restroom and ruin things for everyone . I have horror stories to tell , but they are not fit for this site . :( Razzy aka  |

The only *clean* public bathrooms I've been in are at the airports. They have the best public bathrooms! LOL! They don't have a door that you have to touch to exit, they have automatic sinks, and toilet seat covers. Well, at least that's what it's like here.  |

I agree...I absolutely HATE public restrooms....Funny story though, my best friend is super observant and she's constantly noticing when people don't wash their hands before leaving the bathroom. Well, earlier this week she was out with her six year old daughter and a woman left without washing so she CHASED after her and said "Excuse me, I know we all get busy sometimes but I noticed you forgot to wash your hands, and I would want someone to remind me if I forgot because I consider that to be important." The poor woman just about died of embarrassment and didn't say a word before turning around and going back to wash up. But my friend told me all she could think was that the woman was going to go down the hall and then press the button on the elevator that her DAUGHTER would then press...and then she'd later have her fingers in her mouth (like children tend to do) and she was fed up and couldn't take it anymore. I felt so sorry for that poor woman but at the same time....she should have just washed 'em in the first place!  |

I avoid Public Restrooms all together if I can help it! And if I have to use them I always flush the toilet with toilet paper and open the door with toilet paper. I then wash my hands and turn off the water with a paper towl and open the door to leave with a paper towl...I cant stand them! I am so cautious in them... ~~~Humming Bird  |

It's not like I can go how they can go...I gotta look in the stalls, make sure there is TP and that it's not that yucky for me to use. Then I'll wipe down the seat with toilet paper and do my thing. I never use my hands to flush the toilets. I'll either grab another wad of TP or use my foots and I make sure to wash my hands very good!  |

What I do when I have to use a public toilet is take paper toweling, run it underwater, put soap on it, and wash the seat before sitting down. I know, it's weird, but who knows when that seat was washed last? And who wants to be sitting upon a seat that has seen many a butt since it was last cleaned? I certainly don't...  |

Outhouses are the worst, though. I had to use one at a picnic and I was so terrified of falling in! LOL! And even worse than that was summer camp! The toilets didn't even have stalls! It was just toilets lined up beside each other. One time, I really had to go, and this kid next to me watched me the entire time I went. I glared at her and told her not to look at me, but it was a disgusting experience...  |

Young folk today worry about fleas and port-a- potties. (Grins really big) What would you have done back in the day of which I have had experience with, of out door toilets. No chemical fragrance to cover the smell at all. Fleas you say! Try yellow jacket nest, under the seat next to your un-mentionables. Dried corn cobbs for wiping with. If you were lucky, you had old Sears and Robuck catalog. Spiders, big green blow flies, to bite your cheeks. Them were the days! And you worry about Port -A- Pots? What would you have done?  |
