People who put the lid down in public toilets

There is someone at my work who puts the lids down in the toilets. It's so gross. I put the lid down at home but never in public/work toilets, as it forces people to touch the germ infested lid.
Do you put the lid down in public loos? I hate public loos...there always seems to be pubes on the seat. Ugh.

I just piss, as for you females, ha tough luck, nature hates yas!
On the camp though, we had stinky "portapotties"...I couldn't believe people actually called toilets "potties"!
We don't have a lid on our toilet at home, because while fitting the bathroom, my Dad dropped a hammer and it cracked :yeees: I do at peoples houses, though I've never thought to in a public loo.
I dont care about the germs as much, cos i can wash my hands afterwards, and i quite often carry a small pack of wetwipes in my bag to wipe things like toilet seats.
:Lol: Potties are awsome
What do your seat covers look like then or what do you use, or does everybody hover
Oh, I saw a truck with some portapotties last summer, the company name Oui Oui and the slogan was go oui oui with us
Oh and when hand driers don't work properly, or not at all. I hate leaving if my hands are still wet, I'm awful!
I hover over them when I'm having a wazz!
Yet when you are using a cash point or just handling MONEY, there are exactly the same proportion of disgusting germs!
Every shop door you touch, button in the lift, cash points(I hate them) even chip and pin things now in store.. when you use their pen to sign for something, etc etc, its all disgusting really.
Lets not even mention peanuts and bar snacks available in bowls at pubs...
Men's loos are really disgusting though, it seems a lot of men don't know how to flush. And why do so many guys always go for a pee in the cubicles instead of the urinals?
They're not allowed to do that anymore..
Wasn't there a survey done once on that sort of thing?
Yeah, but most the time my vagina doesn't go anywhere near those things. And you can wash your hands almsot anywhere or have waterless hand sanitaizers with you, pulling your pants down and doing the same anywhere would be more embaressing.
If you think our toilets are bad, you should see the ones in Nepal.
Squat, do your business then use your index and middle fingers to... *ahem* clean yourself.
This was in our upmarket hotel
A lot more hygenic apparently.
But if i'm in England or America, i tend to put the hand sanitizer on the seat and wipe it with a wetwipe (in case i for some reason need to sit on it). Worst thing is if you poo and you get a splash of water hit your arse....that is the reason i dont poo in public loos anymore.
Oh and the far-east (thailand, singapore, malaysia and japan) all have pretty clean toilets...definetly cleaner than the UK.
How?! What?! I'd rather piss myself than use that eugh..
Most public loos around my area are cleaned hourly. I don't have issues with sitting down on one. It's not as if i'm going to rub my bits over the seat ffs! It's only really my thighs that touch the seat itself. If the seats up i'll use a bit of toilet paper to act as a barrier when i pull it down and often the same to flush the handle. Thats just because i'm a germ freak though, i worry about not having clean enough hands (even after washing) and giving myself something nasty if i bite my nails. As my thighs don't come into contact with my mouth and i wash daily i'd happily use a (clean) public loo.
Do you think your hands are any better if you wipe your front or arse? There is running water and soap present, don't be such a "EWWWW PEEING IS GROSS"-girl.
