I'd say SO... On one active thread you're talking about unwarranted erections in taxicabs, on this one you're discussing menstrual blood in toilets, one has to struggle to remember what one's daughter was like at your age LOL.

Blame it on me being grumpy. When I posted both of the threads, it turned midnight and I just got home from the airport. My normal bed time is around 8-9 pm. I was abscent minded, I think.

Lol, I can be a horribly picky person when it comes to toilets. I'm already planning for my future house and it's been confirmed that more money will be spent building the toilet than the bedroom. It's my sanctuary... well my ideas always sparkle after a few plonks!

So this is one of the more bizarre threads I've sat and read to the end around here. I've come to the conclusion that photogs are...well, unique people. ;)
Oh wait...I have a camera too. And I just admitted to reading all this. And then replied to it. AHHHH! I'm one of them!!!

I know why...
Okay, I lied. Maybe it's because I'm hot stuff. Lol. I was kidding on that. Maybe I wasn't, heck I don't know. I call just about everyone around me, meaning my family and friends either hot, sexy, gorgeous, handsome, or cute.

Odd as it may seem, I can't imagine leaving it up.
It's just a courtesy thing.

One of the vendors that frequents my shop to check on our bulk oil products always uses our bathroom, and says it's becuase it's the cleanest around town. He always left the seat up when he left though, and finally I told him if he is going to use it, then he has to put the seat down, no exceptions.
A couple months later after getting into the hang of it, he told me one day his wife wasn't nagging him at home anymore about it, as he was getting into the habit of putting it down now at home.

LOL - I trained a 50 year old man!

Amen sista... with three sons, I don't even worry with the up-or-down battle...if I can just go and not find pee dripping down the front, sides, back, or anywhere near any part of my body might touch the commode, I feel like it's a good day.

OH YEAH! I put my gum boots on!

If if makes you feel any better, my dad does that too. It think it's cool. Certainly not strange where I live.

I usually leave it in the same state as how I found it. I share my bathroom at school with three other females, so of course the seat stays down (and my boyfriend's nice enough to put it back down when he's done with it). However, his bathroom is shared between five guys, and about half the time I go to use it I find it up. So I put it up when I'm done.

It was fun using toilets when I stayed in China a few summers ago....just a bowl in the ground, no coveres to put up or down, and people just squat over them.

About time for us guys to weigh in and discuss the joys of "writing in the snow", don't you think? It's one of the great male freedoms, this ability to take an uninhibitedly expressive pee in the great outdoors. Share your stories, guys!

I had a friend who had devious plans to get a bunch of us girls together, go buy crotchless panties, sneak out in the dark of night and pee our names in the snow. Just so that we could prove girls could do it too!!!

But she neglected to remember that most people don't want to stand with their butt hanging out in the freezing cold, so we haven't quite gotten around to that yet ;-)

Besides......no snow here right now.....

Anybody can write their names...I'm impressed when I see yellow poetry in the snow!!!

...especially since this would mean (with that much pee) , either the person had been drinking a lot of beer, so was at least slightly intoxicated, or, it was first thing in the morning (after waking up) when it is usually really, really cold :-P

Outdoor peeing... my oh my. Reminds me of the days when I was a child. Need to pee Ashley? Dad would park the car at the side of the road and say go squat in the bushes and do your thing. Mum would make those "shhee" noises to get me going. Same goes to my brothers.

It great to do such as long as you don't brag chasing who ever with your shlong.

For me seat up or down is not an issue. The issue is the lid should be down. Can't have an up seat with a down lid. Women complain about how hard it is to train a man to put the seat down, try training women to put the lid down. herding cats comes to mind.

EDIT: On a side note... tell the truth ladies... you're in there playing with the toilet paper aren't you? Making yourself into TP mummys and whatnot. Sometimes I feel like the Gunga Din of toilet paper the way I'm constantly schlepping 48 packs from the store to my house.
