Guests - how welcome are they, really?

Say the guest came to you and asked would you have said yes or no.

That's a good question! The next time I visit, I shall wait until someone else is occupying the main bathroom and then ask and watch the host squirm. It should have the others in stitches at least.

I had resolved to keep 'em crossed but you have changed my mind.

But the huge bump didn't stop you taking them off. :huh:

Because you can wriggle them off to your knees and them they fall to the floor and your kick them off with your feet.
The you realise in a tiny confined space you can't get down and pick them up.

I'd happily pick up the underwear of anyone who couldn't pick them up because of disability, illness or heavily pregnant.

This is half the problem, tiny confined spaces.... I have one bathroom - it's so tiny that somebody larger than a size 16 wouldn't even be able to get in there and get to the loo as you have to tuck yourself tight against the shower screen/sink for the door to come back past you, so you can close it - and the loo's behind the door.

And that's the main/only bathroom....an en-suite would be tighter. In fact, my bathroom doesn't even have room for any laundry basket - unless it was put in the bath most of the time and moved to sit on the loo seat when one had a bath.

But, what one does in one's private en-suite/bathroom is of no concern to others .... the problem is feral guests potentially availing themselves of one's private quarters.

I've no en-suite... but I'd NEVER expect another human being to see the inside of it if I did.

Our en suite is fairly big. There is as much space as there is in the bathroom.

Maybe the sizes vary.

I wouldn't bother or care if someone used ours, as we never have anything lying about that we would not want anyone else to see. Certainly not grubby underwear! :rotfl:

I wouldn't have let them in in the first place. How can I wipe my bum on the carpet in peace with visitors goggling at me?

I think the en-suite is fair game if you showed them it as part of your "tour". I'd rather they used it than had an accident.

I'd not want to have my knicks sharing space with the random knicks of other people - and placed in a public/shared wash basket, in a public/shared bathroom. Ewww.

Then, once it's been emptied ... how often do you scrub out the washing basket that's had all these assorted knicks in?

Knicks are private and should be kept in one's own room.

Should I really be scrubbing out my washing basket? Seriously? :eek:

You probably wouldn't like it round our house where I get the kids to throw their dirty clothes onto the landing for me to scoop up at my convenience and take downstairs - and our communal wash basket is in the conservatory, next to the shoe rack, which is next to the hat stand, which is next to the washing machine.

Have to say never thought of washing my wash basket. And while i'd not leave dirty knickers on the floor, it's your home so do what you want and d*** what everyone else thinks!

You mean your FAMILY bathroom! :huh:

It's not a public bathroom when it's in your house, and your family use it FGS.

Although I can only imagine from the bizarre content of your post that you are joking? Washing out your wash basket? !!!!!!?

From the bizarre things you are coming out with now, it strikes me that you're miffed that so many people are telling you they think it's gross to have your dirty undies on the en suite bathroom floor... that's the reason why you are trying to make out putting dirty washing in a WASH BASKET is gross! :rotfl: Better try harder than that love. That doesn't even make sense!

FTR, I would not mind someone using my en suite if the main bathroom was in use. And they would certainly not ever find my used and dirty underwear on the floor. Sorry, but that is absolutely vile. Have you no dignity?! :eek:

Erm, pastures has many phobias that she has to deal with every day

Mocking isnt really on - esp as only a few posts above someone has already stated pastures lives alone

*max*

I will - and do - leave my own knickers on the floor of my own bathroom AND bedroom. And I will continue to do so, even if some precious people on the internet think it's "gross".
