Using other people's bathrooms

Do you feel comfortable using the bathroom (poooooop) in other people's homes? Restaurants? Stores? Shuls?

Is it a last resort kind of thing? Something you'd never do? Or will you go whenever and wherever?

Do you bring spray or matches with you?

I'd make a poll if I knew how.

I agree on the spray!. Same reason I don't like perfumed diapers.

I'm a last resort kinda gal also.

Last resort kinda thing.

And if ever someone asks to use my bathroom that is not my immediate family member, that means a bathroom cleaning for me immediately after.

Not a last resort. I use bathrooms wherever I need to.

I’m not picky. My dad is a Boy Scout troop leader and would take out family on the overnight trips (girls too); it takes a lot to daunt me when nature calls.

I don’t even like using the bathroom on the main floor of my own house because guests use that (like all the kids’ friends). Definitely avoid using someone else’s unless there’s no choice.

I'd go in the woods (and have) before I'd go in someone's powder room. lol

Same here!! I don't ever use public/other's bathrooms unless it's an emergency

Only if I know I'll be home shortly, I'll wait for till then. Otherwise, I do what I gotta do, absolutely. Keeping back too long gets my stomach messed up, I'd rather not have that.

If you go regularly, then it’s not that unhealthy to hold it in a little. It’s not like holding in pee.

Last resort. Thought I’m the only one that has this issue.

OH MY GOD! Me too! I gag when other people use my bathroom, even if it’s kids that come for play dates or neighbors.
I use as a last resort but it almost never happens because I’m an expert at holding it in.

The worst is when you go to the bathroom and the toilet seat is still warm from the person before.

lol sorry guys. That was gross. I feel like we needed this kind of thread though. I hope it doesn't get too controversial.

Here’s another gross one guys. Ever walk into an elevator, right after a woman walks out who thought that because she was alone in the elevator, she could let one go with no consequence. Then you walk in, only to get hit with this gross mix of perfume and flatulence.

BH nope. But any lady who does that is gambling. You really never know where the elevator will stop or who is on the other side....

Lol. I would have minored in Scatology if they offered it in college. Childish bathroom humor sort of runs in our family.
