Ladies restrooms

(0 reviews)

I have been using them for the past year. mostly public restrooms such as malls, restaurants and the likes.

What is was surprised about was hearing women siting in the stall next too me and would say that 95% of them use the paper on the toilet to protect themselves while on contrast I would say it's almost the reverse for the men's restroom. Not that I am sitting there listening for that but for whatever reason this is the case. Anyways I always when available use the paper cover as one never knows who or what resided on the seat before me. Even I noticed I missed a few drops once or twice unlike (and this is a very distant memory) shaking the you know what at the urinal. So that got me think about a video on the web, a plastic device so women can stand and pee, they had a handful try it out and I think they were not impressed, neither would I be either.

Now in the restrooms in my company there are these containers hanging in each stall which I have been using to hang my purse on for months now. Finally was curious enough to open the lid, yes, that was a bad idea and will leave it at that.

Overall I am finding the women's restroom much cleaner than the men's restrooms but there have been a few times when I went into a stall and backed out as fast as my feet would move.

One final note, in the ladies restroom in my area someone leaves three bottles of hand lotion, strawberry, lavender and vanilla. Two bottles are taped together, not sure why but love the idea of the lotions there.

    Several years ago, I was watching one of those investigative-type news programs (20/20, for example). They had done a piece on bathrooms. Turns out, the most germ/bacteria-riddled area of the bathroom was the doorhandle/-knob on entry/exit door of the bathroom.

    Sounds as though the restrooms are pretty much the same as in the UK, mens are a lot worse than the ladies.

    But it reminds me of my very first shopping trip 3-4 years ago in a mall, I had to go to the loo for more than a pee, and largely due to my almost non-existant self confidence at that time, I darted into the first trap I came across. Anyway after doing what was needed, I found that there wasn't any toilet paper, my voice still isn't femme in my opinion, but it was a lot more male at that time, so I was petrified at the thought of there's a man in the ladies being shouted out and being accosted by security guards and police!, so no, I couldn't ask the trap next door for some toilet roll.

    Luckily I remembered that my wife had put 2 packs of paper honkeys in my handbag.........thank god for a womans experienced help!

    Cheers,

    You know your in a decent rest room when there is a trash can by the door to drop the tissue you used to open it! :)

    Veronica, I agree completely!!! In fact, I also use a piece of tissue to adjust the toilet seat (if needed) and to flush the toilet. In public restrooms I don't want to touch anything that others have touched if I can avoid it.

    Something I learned after surgery and using the toilet was I sometimes drip a few drops of pee after thinking I wiped properly. So at home I inspect the seat everytime and will wipe the seat down if there are any drops. Same for restrooms without paper covers and I have used tissues on the seat.

    In regards to door knobs, at work I hit the door opener with the back of my hand, still does not solve all issues but better then a normal door opening.

    Would like to see 'no touch' technology for flushing, turning on water at the sink and opening the door!
