I'm the opposite. If I go in a public toilet for a pee and its only stalls, I'll just hold it. Also, could never walk into a stall immediately after someone comes out. Don't know how women do it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pal of mine suffers from that. He is not embarrassed by it as he's been aware of it for years. It's probably more common than people think. He does find it annoying when he goes for a pee in a busy pub but the traps are occupied... he waves folk in past him to use the urinals - some are a bit confused. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetterlund Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 44 years old and until 2 days ago on this thread I'd never heard of the cubicles in toilets being referred to as 'traps'. Is this another east/west thing? 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The queue for the lassies toilets was gigantic, but the guys was just a large outdoor urinal paddock type thing. There was more women in there pishing than there was men. Everyone just got on with it. Edited September 14, 2023 by KnightswoodBear 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have hit on the exact reason why I avoid them. Looking at another's skidmarks is not on my to-do list. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
