I read the above post as someone leaving poo on a toilet seat, not anything in particular to do with womens issues, if it was anything else then I stand corrected.

I was merely conflating the two to serve as an example that one must tread warily on the MRF board where, as Georgie has now confirmed, there is little if anything out of bounds either as a topic or a comment. I'm guessing that technically it could also be termed a women's issue on the basis that there was an old woman involved, I doubt a similar experience involving an old codger would be brought up so gratuitously by a male and certainly not on an all girls together board.

I hope I haven't caused offence Scarab?

It was just an example to show my agreement with This Years comment about a dislike of public toilets....an extreme one granted!

The comment about an 'old woman' would have been 'young women' if she had of been young.

No offence caused Georgie, merely as aforementioned, a queasiness that I'm sure will pass in due course, thank you for caring!
It is of course perfectly correct that the blame for this unseemly episode should be lain at This Year's door and I thank you again for pointing this out. :laugh:

That's something we can agree upon. :rotfl:
I'm curious though, leaving aside this particular incident, why would you ever risk using a gender neutral toilet, men are surely more unhygienic generally due to the 'nature of delivery' or have I got it wrong for once? :shocked:

It was either unisex toilets or wait until I got home, which considering it was about an hour away, wasn't an option.

I'm not that bad that I won't go in them (unless they are totally minging!), I'm just not overly keen that's all!

I'm assuming therefore that you waited for the other cubicle to become available, which begs the question, what would you have done had this poor old woman or someone similarly 'handicapped' tried their luck there beforehand?

I wish I hadn't started this now lol! :rotfl:

First off, I don't know if she was 'handicapped', (anyone can use those cubicles) for all I or anyone else knows, she might have ate a dodgy prawn or had a bad curry!

If she had of gone in the other cubicle then I would have waited for the other one to become available, as I'm sure anyone would have done when faced with !!!! all over the toilet!

You deftly avoided the question I see about what you would have done had both cubicles been minging!

Ah ok, I understand now! The answer is simple, there's no way I could have gone in them, I mean seriously could you?
