It's down to genetics, group B people are missing the receptor that noroviruses bind to at the molecular level. BUT there are a lot of viruses out there and they mutate all the time so it might not be true for all of them all of the time and there are a whole lot more things out there that give you trouble.

And blood group A is the most prone to Norovirus - I always wondered why I seemed to be more prone to tummy bugs than others, now I know why!

If someone is in another toilet cubicle when at work I can only start to pee once I have put my fingers in my ears. Hearing other people pee and knowing they can hear me puts me right off, doing that makes me feel better. I refer to it as stage fright..

You wanna try being a bloke having to actually stand next to each other peeing.

Seriously you women should realise how easy you've got it when it comes to toilets, try being a man for a week and putting up with standing next to each other to pee (often stood in puddles of urine), having rarely cleaned or looked after toilets, they usually stink, never having loo roll, rarely having cubicle toilets flushed after use, having pee sprayed loo seats because those with shy bladders went for a pee in the cubicle loo and couldn't be bothered lifting the seat (that's assuming there's a loo seat present in the first place).

I love this thread!!!!

Totally agree with those who say that teeny cubicles suck and separate toilet 'rooms' rock! Cubicles do my head in, esp at work when you have colleagues chatting to each other while peeing!!! No no no! :eek:

Ahem. As you were.

The reason why modern toilets in the workplace are not designed to give total privacy and to completely remove odour?

They would then be perfect for a crafty smoke! So hours and hours of productivity would be lost!

at an office i worked the women had a "Phantom LOgger" who would leave presents in the lavs.this went round the office like wild fire and eventually got to the men too.There were bets on who the culprit was however i dont think it was ever truly identified. I have a feeling i know who it was though.
