And while we are on the subject, I'm just going to throw this out there. Not washing your hands after you use the bathroom is really not a good plan. I don't know if it's an issue with women, but I'll bet a good 1/3 of guys don't. I've identified those at work who do not, and will do anything to avoid shaking their hands.
Do I have to use soap too?
Yes. After you leave the seat up, you wet the soap and rub it along the side of the rim. They're almost guaranteed to fall in.
The next time I want to camp out in the lving room, I will have to try that!
I'm a dude and live on my own, and i put the seat and lid down before flushing. Seriously, bad stuff goes airborne when you flush. Think about where you keep your toothbrush, for example. 'Nuff said.

I saw a show on this, and if you saw it you would never again flush with the lid up, especially if bathroom cleanliness is one of your obsessive compulsive traits.

I found another advantage of putting the lid down though. It turns out that flushing the toilet with the lid up throws all sorts of bacteria into the air. I'm basically a slob except when it comes to my everyday life, but I'm the complete opposite about bathrooms. In public restrooms I refuse to touch anything without a paper towel in my hand, but even at home I'm a little psycho about it. Once I heard that story about leaving the lid up when you flush I always close the lid, then flush. I would do that with or without females in the house.
After every condo I lived in after college, I replaced each toilet and tub in the master bath and never used the bathrooms in the unit. I've lived in the same house since '01 and never used the other 2 bathrooms, only the master bath.
I hate public restrooms, there's always hand sanitizer in my possession.
Bathrooms are one of my complusive things.
Hotel bedding is another.
Did the Dave Savini investigation get to you, or were you like that before? Ever since that investigative report showing all sorts of nasty bodily fluids on those things in hotels, my wife will not sleep with the comforter on the bed.
My dad was raised on a farm, and is a complete clean freak when it comes to stuff like that. I guess farmers have to wash their hands like surgeons before eating, a habit my Dad has always had and passed that obsession down to the kids even though we weren't elbow deep in cow dung all morning.
Been like that for awhile, I'll be down in Carbondale this weekend and I'll be bringing my blankets, bedspread, sheets, and pillows. I heard that the amounts of times they actually wash the comforter is very small throughout the year.
