and yes...how many times have you used toilet paper, whiped and whiped and still there was poo on it and you'd thought oh what the hell, and pulled up your pants and walked...there defo is something to say for water... plus I know that in mr MH's office, a lot of the men actually squat on the toilet seat of the normal toilets, which isn't ideal really... anyway...lets see what Norm has to say about it all... I agree with your toilet paper comments - I think that's why we invented bidets and those little shower thingies. Paper alone is not usually good enough - I grew up with a bidet at home and can't really imagine paper only as something hygenic. If they were to start installing ablution facilities and prayer rooms in malls back home I might have something to say but this is just a variant on the humble toilet - used all over the world. Not sure what all the fuss is about. N. |

Re: "Squatting" toilets introduced in Rochdale shopping mall
fair point about the previous bloke who didn't was his hands and you also open the door after them. I suppose if one really wants to be careful, you could use a tissue to open the door.

What's the point in washing your hands. After you have washed them you have to pull the door knob to get out of the toilets which was just pulled by someone who didn't wash their hands.
The best solution are those toilets with no doors but L shaped walls obstructing the view. |

I always douse the cold tap (I never use the hot tap in public loos) with water before turning it off. Paranoid?

I too am amazed at the number of guys who don't wash their hands. Then back to the bar and finnish eating the peanuts on the bar. :thumbup: I still wash them though - but from a medical standpoint it's not the end of the world. N. |

I carry a can of disinfectant and spray anything I might have to come in contact with, that is, after I don my hazmat suit.

This thread really is grim. I feel like I have learnt far too much information about you all. :p

Re: "Squatting" toilets introduced in Rochdale shopping mall
We have matching hazmat suits. Pink and Blue. We special ordered them from the hazmat suit factory in Kochi prefecture. The are like super shammies: one drop of water makes them expand, one good squeeze returns them to their original size. We store them in one inch square, moisture-proof platinum boxes. I paid ten thousand yen extra to get a digital clock put on mine and a pair of small handles. This way I can attach a wrist strap and wear it as a watch.
I still prefer our ToTo east-meets-west toilet seat. There's nothing like a warm seat and aromatic fan to greet your bum at 3am. I could complete a crossword or two in that little state of Nirvana if I wasn't so sleepy. The ToTo never gets the spray treatment or hazmat suits. Japanese germ killing technology takes care of that. Also why push for a squirt when you can have the toilet wipe for you? We have more options on our ToTo than our Toyota! U. |

In Dubai MOE, had Jap toilet demo
Been in UAE for a few years, and really got to like the toilet shower.
Hate the wet pants due to the flooded floor. Never got the squatting scene sorted. glf |
