Sort of depends on what the rest of the bathroom looks like. If it seems to be clean I'll just go for it.
If it looks like the whole Russian army just finished pissing on the floor I'll probably hold it.

What I don't know won't hurt me. If you saw the percentage of men who don't wash their hands period, you'd probably faint.
Lol... wow

Yeah some public toilets actually are pretty clean, if that's the case I don't mind using them so much.
I also refuse to pay to use a public toilet. I'm not paying to do a basic biological function. I'll walk 10 minutes along New Street in Birmingham to go in the free toilets in the Bullring, before I'll pay 30p to use the ones in New Street train station, which are no cleaner. Might sound petty but it's on principle.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie

That's a distinctly European phenomenon. We don't pay to poo here in 'Murrica. There would be an uprising.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

HA HA HA ... CL, you're a funny girl!
I'm not sure if you're sick of talking religion and need to yak about "other" things, or you're testing us heathens to see whether we roll around in cesspools with pigs, etc...
I gather the first! It genuinely makes me happy to know that you care enough about us to ask us the "important" questions in life! hehe
Either that or just maybe, you want to know how the clean scientific half live?
Keep the varied topics flowing! (As long as this doesn't segui into a Skat discussion, I'm about to have breakfast)

Then, watch the whole movie, because its actually quite good.

I think places like India have the right idea.
You don't have to touch anything, and you won't get splash back. The many port-a-potties at all my job sites are frequently clean, which is almost worse. There's nothing stopping the splash back.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

Haha Yeah, it gets much much worse. Every scene gets progressively more disgusting, which is odd for a movie with so much heart. You really start to feel for her.
