This is not a good shot in my opinion and I'll tell you why:

The light probably should have been placed in a way so as to elongate the shadows. Here, the light is in the wrong position. If you look at the outstretched leg, it is not long and sexy, it is short and stubby.

The way the model is posed, it looks like she is trying to climb up, onto, and over the chair to get at something behind it. It's not natural.

I like the curtain but I can't tell what is/was in focus

This is just a snap shot of a toilet with the seat left up. While it does depict a habit not a lot of thought went into showing us something new in this photo. Meeting the challenge is more than just depicting the idea but depicting it in a way that is visually pleasing and interesting.

You are the victim of selecting an idea that many others used. You do have some irony though - the "unclean" seat bottom - and a bachelor with pretty fishy curtain.

While it fits the topic (sort of), personally, I can find nothing artistic to praise about this shot. I suppose it would work for rental documentation, but beyond that, it's severely lacking on every major point.

I personally didn't care for the toilet shots in this challenge, but tried not to base my scoring on that. However, I would have scored this higher with a tighter composition and focal point of interest.

While I can appreciate the statement you are making with your title, I don't think this is a very good photo to enter in a photography contest. Do you really think anybody wants to see a picture of your dirty toilet?! I, for one, don't. On the plus side, at least it's in focus.
