(33,915 posts)Especially since, unlike the back sides of their legs (which remain covered once they exit the stall), their hands could be used to grab a generous bunch of toilet paper and wipe down without actually touching the communal seat and then washed upon exiting the stall.
So - no actual touching with any part of their body which is likely to transfer germs to the interior of their body, and a good cleansing (which, we know they are doing anyway) of the only part that potentially - if they are not good at bunching up toilet paper - might have touched the seat in a potentially germ transmitting way.
(Of course, absent open sores on the backs of their legs, or very strange rituals which might transfer germs from the backs of their legs & rump to their nose or mouth.)
But yes, I know I'm dreaming . . . but running into so many foul bathrooms which were so obviously defiled by hoverers (including my spouse - who insists that she just leaves it in the state it is in when she finds it), I could not restrain myself from expressing that dream (with a little reasoning about why it would be so reasonable for them to clean up after themselves).
