I do it when I don't want to wake up others in the household. I'll also hover over the seat if I'm in a public restroom--but more often I'll lay down some terlet paper on the seat or use those wonderful paper seat covers. but regarding seat splatter: What women don't realize, I've come to understand, is that pee splatters *off the water* when we men urinate. So droplets are not necessarily the result of a careless aim. Richochet is to blame! I’m a dude, and I’ll admit to being like Larry David on occasion and (oh, the shame!) sitting down to piss.

What about the biggest one of all? The non-flushed toilet? There's never just pee pee in there, either! Eaton, that is hilarious! What about the biggest one of all? The non-flushed toilet?

I had no idea. Any thoughts on those folks who build a bird's nest on the seat before using it? Or the floor bombers who refuse to use the bathroom nearest their cube for fear of running into a coworker? That’s fucked up. I had no idea.

I used a (pretty scrungy) public restroom once where there weren't toilet seats. In response to my griping about it, one of the women I was with said "why does it matter, who sits on the toilet seat anyway?" I was shocked. However, I do think that MOST (certainly not all!) of the splatters on toilet seats are due to spray from flushing. Hear, hear.
