      oic so hovering means both legs are on the floor but your butt does not touch the toilet cover, kinda suspend in the air and aim at the toilet bowl?

      Any contortionists around, with any solutions.......... :censored:

        There’s also a contraption similar to a funnel, I guess, that females can use so that can pee standing up. It was sold in Singapore a couple of yrs back, now I’m not sure.

          I carry a spray with me and will use it on the seat covers before we sit down. in the past, we would simply use the squat toilets.


          My hub says that the boys toilet is worse. 😞 Pee all over ... on the seat cover even. He did say that not all know that it is only polite to lift the cover before peeing (for sit toilets) and this is also why he will tahan until he reaches home to use the toilet for big business.

            No, that's because all MOMs told their boys not to touch that filthy seat cover!!! 😉

              Hahaha.

              What I mean is, you only need the person who wishes to sit to put the seat down and lift it back up when done. Otherwise, men do not really need the seat cover to be down when they pee in the cubicles.

              If the seat cover is down and they peed (accidentally on it) the next person will not want to touch the cover liao. And whoever comes in after will just pee over the cover, sometimes making the cubicle dirtier.

                This is what I usually ask DS to do if the toilet cant be trusted. 😉

                  I usually try to find a cleaner toilet if possible.

                  My girl tend to inform in advance & can 'ren' for awhile.

                  If no better choice 🤷 than wet wipes before letting her sit on it.

                    Haha…and I thought I was the only one who is so paranoid about the cleanliness of the public toilet seat.


                    When my DD was little, I would carry her over the toilet bowl. When she was too heavy for me to carry anymore, like many of you, I placed layers and layers of toilet paper. Then I taught her the hovering method when she was tall enough.

                    By the way, do you all notice how many people do not wash their hands with soap after using the toilets? Including the retail and restaurant staff…then they serve us after that…
