Public Service Announcement
I'm going to say this one really loud. Please pass on this message to all of your female friends because it is vital public health information. Look it up, if you like.
IT IS OKAY TO SIT ON THE TOILET SEAT!!!!
Let's go over this step by step. Okay? I'll hold your hand through this one- as long as you promise to wash.
The toilet seat is one of the few surfaces that actually get cleaned in a public bathroom. It is a hell of a lot cleaner than the bathroom floor which you set your purse on and then set on your kitchen table a mere hour later. (EW!) The toilet seat is one of the cleanest places in the bathroom. And even if it wasn't, let me make another argument for not hovering over the seat...
I know you are worried about how vulnerable your delicate parts are, but even when you actually sit on the seat (if you do it properly) your goodies never touch the seat. The human body is brilliantly designed. You see, bacteria does not crawl. It needs to be transported through contact, and even if you are worried about bacteria being rubbed toward your vagina by the act of pulling up your pants, please note how the crotch of your panties never touches the backs of your thighs. Unless you do something that I don't.
Here's the ultimate catch- the seat should be just fine to sit on unless SOMEONE ELSE HAS PEED ON IT!!! Dude! So, just sit your ass down and wash your hands for a good 30 seconds and you will survive even a New York public toilet without getting syphillis. I'm 30. I've sat on public toilets all over the country my whole life. Never had a problem. Unless of course you count the extreme irritation of having to use a toilet after some prissy little twit did her hovercraft routine and didn't clean up after herself. Gross. So stop it.
And wash your hands. It is a bigger health risk to shake someone's hand than it is to sit on a toilet seat. And if you're so worried about your goodies- think about the number of men that do not wash after using the restroom. (More than you'd think) Consider that risk during your next grope-a-thon with Mr. Pee-Hands and suddenly sitting on the seat doesn't seem quite as risky.
The long and short of this is: Stop pissing all over the toilet seats, girls.
Done and done.
