Re: Let's Talk About Toilets
I'm just amazed that there are even girls who side with guys that leave the toilet seats up and think any girl that bitches about a toilet seat is "weak."So if guys can leave the toilet seat up without so much as a peep from anyone else, then can I leave my bloody tampons and pads out for you to see, too? I take the time to roll up my pads and stuff in toilet paper so it's not visible in the trash can and won't gross people out, especially guys. I know a lot of guys who get woozy over seeing blood but I actually respect people so I am courteous enough to cover that stuff up instead of leaving a full, bloody, visible pad in the trash and no one has to tell me to do this.
I think leaving girl products out is equally comparable to a guy leaving a toilet seat up, is it not?
Why should I go through the trouble of covering up my personal hygiene monthly if guys don't put the toilet seat back down? So let's find a common ground here.P.S.
Seriously guys, name calling over debating about leaving the toilet seats down/up? Wow, and apparently the girls who "bitch" about leaving seats up/down have issues, what about the people who bitch about the girls who bitch about others leaving the toilet seats down/up?

- About Me: I'm above you trolls' outplayed drama so I deleted some of my own comments. Feel free to keep your hypocritical insults up in my blog, yes, secretbeer, it's MY BLOG whether it's posted on datingish or not. It really isn't helping your cause that you get recs from other trolls and you three idiots who make up a bunch of names JUST TO REC YOUR OWN COMMENTS, LOL not intelligent people. Clearly you aren't above this petty drama which is why you still leave your abusive childish retorts up. It's so easy for these drama clowns to say crap on the Internet, yet I'm willing to bet that most of them in person, would probably just brush past and wouldn't say anything. Talk your talk, but you don't walk the walk, and if you do get mad over little things that don't even concern you, shows how classless you are. I didn't write my entries for the same individuals over and over to insult me. Again, don't bother to post your crap in my blog because chances are, I don't have a high view of you eit

I understand women's point of view on the whole toilet seat thing. But comparing a toilet seat in the upright position to a wide open used tampon is a bit of a reach.
They're not leaving piss all over the place (or other bodily fluids), so it's not really comparable to leaving used pads laying around. It's a toilet seat, not the end of the world.
I'm a tiny girl, I have fallen into a toilet a time or two in my life. But this is not a big deal. It takes 2 seconds to put a seat up or down. Definitely not a battle I would choose to have with someone. It's beyond not worth it.
Aaaaand I've seen way too many drunk people doing mouth to mouth with a toilet when they do the vomit dance. Apparently it's not THAT dirty. But I would never vomit on a tampon.
Apples and oranges folks. Apples and oranges..
oh my god. sweetheart. this started because i left a drunk comment on here on a COMPLETELY unrelated post after i downed 2 bottles of wine with some skank i met on the train. i think this is really being blown out of proportion.
that being said, if accepting your proposition of leaving your tampons out is enough to end this, then i readily agree. i mean, as i've said before, i'm pretty sure periods are just a conspiracy brought on by the female population. i don't know any guys who have actually seen a bloody tampon.
but hey, at least you're writing about something that's not facebook-related, hahaha.
Leaving a clean toilet seat up is not the same as being vile and unhygienic and leaving dirty sanitary towels and tampons all over the place.
@TheNotoriousGOD@xanga - u get on xanga when u get drunk? wtf is wrong with you.
@baggageclaime@xanga - sigh. believe me, i've had the same thought a *million* fucking times...
in my defense, i wasn't about to go out that night, as it was well after midnight and my friends and i don't rage on mondays. so i was pretty much stuck at home for the night.
Period blood doesn't bother me in the least, but then again, neither does putting the toilet seat down.
Courtesy > Convenience
@TheNotoriousGOD@xanga - props to you. I have a hard time getting into clubs when I'm drunk, much less something requiring a log in.
oh wow, an entire post about me. i feel flattered, but i think you're assuming i got riled up about the discussion as much as you. and you'd be wrong. i don't necessarily think you have issues because you care so much about a toilet seat. but i don't think you have issues because you've been dwelling on this for so long.
anyway, you gave a bad example. my boyfriend doesn't care if he sees a tampon or two in the bathroom trashcan. he knows i menstruate, because he took sex ed in 4th grade.
This discussion is still going? Seriously? Is datingish that slow today?
@EccentricSiren@xanga - I thought I would feed you trolls today. You seem bored. :)
What? You don't want my post up? but you liked the comments that were flaming me in the other post! I thought you would like this post too! That's a shocker. Yep, it's still being discussed because you're a submissive woman and I can see who is truly the man of the house hold.
Awe you don't like this post because you're getting called out but you think you're so tough calling other people out, huh?
@EccentricSiren@xanga - For the record, I submitted this the same day that other entry was posted, but it just got published late so take it up with the editors for delaying the post. It would have made more sense. By the way, drop the tone you look dumb. That was a very very cheap shot, tough gal.
@baggageclaime@xanga - thanks for understanding, i mainly posted this for the hard acting tough shot women on here. they have fun calling other people out but when they're called out they don't want it to be posted, and they whine asking why is this posted? lol they should ask themselves why it's posted. i don't know if you saw that whole blog but people were going ape in there. it got nuts toward the end there. i wish they would have posted this the day i submitted it because now some tough little girls are at it again with their big buff tones.
I'm so confused. If a man HATED putting the toilet seat down, but did it anyway, would that make him weak and whipped? Or would being 'weak' somehow be okay in that situation?
Putting a toilet seat down does not somehow magically make it cleaner. Maybe shutting it temporarily while it flushes does, but germs aren't disappearing because a toilet seat is down. I have also never met or heard of (before an hour ago) any person judging people who leave a toilet seat up. When I see a toilet seat down, I have never in my life thought "Ew, pigs". IF I even notice it, I just think "Eh, guy lives here."
I spend 80% of my time at my boyfriend's place. He lives with two of our male friends. Guess what? The toilet seat is never down. Do I judge it? Nope. Do I care? Nope. Should they be expected to put the toilet seat down for me because I spend time there or contribute to the house? Nope.
When I'm there, half the time I put the toilet up after I'm done. That's courtesy. It's a bachelor pad.
@Pure_Taint@xanga - but apparently if i have a problem with it being left up i'm somehow a "bitch" of some sort. your situation is different. it can't be compared because it's all guys living together so of course they're going to do their guy things. this is when guys and girls live together. by the way, even if i didn't make it a big deal...i had a guest tell me how he thought it was disgusting someone left it up and he put it down for me, so....obviously a bachelor pad is gonna leave it up. i'm talking about when you constantly live with the people.
I like how everyone else in this discussion is a troll.
@xinq@xanga - I'm not sure what other people are responding to about you when they reply. But you know you're instigating this.
Saying that women who let the toilet seat stay up are 'dick whipped' or horribly unsanitary people is unnecessary, and yes, a little bitchy.
Even if you have some serious issue with your SO leaving the seat up, I think a lot of us are trying to get the point across that it's NOT a big deal. And not worth arguing over. Not that we're spineless women. Come on now.
@sunflowersforlove@xanga - didn't say everyone, just the people who feel the need to call people who are annoyed with toilet seats being left up names. and some of them commented. in case you haven't seen maybe you have. i submitted this a few days ago in response to the toilet blog and they delayed my post. they should have posted it sooner. o well, i've entertained some trolls today.
@Pure_Taint@xanga - i do find it amusing though that it was a guy who told me he was disgusted by it, not even a girl. simply put if people don't want to be judged they shouldn't judge others back. they judged me and people like me who had a problem with it that's ok but for some reason they can't be judged when the shoe's on the other foot.
I bitch at my husband for leaving it up. And I wrap all my products up so he doesn't see them... Yes, I think it's the same thing.
@baggageclaime@xanga - hahahaha i've only ever been denied entry to a club once, and it's cause the doorman was a dickhead--my friend was also pretty trashed and i guess the doorman found it necessary to kick us out of line because my friend said "that's what she said".
so i came up with this brilliant idea that if we went to the club down the street and switched shirts, we could go back to the first club and the doorman wouldn't recognize us. so we did, then stayed at that 2nd club for like 45 minutes. for some reason, every girl to whom i tried to speak at that club just laughed at me. this had never happened before, and i was super confused. finally, my friend and i decided to try the first club again. i kind of browned out a bit at this point, but i'm told that i opened my mouth and asked the doorman if he recognized us after we switched shirts (lol). we obviously still weren't allowed in, so we went to meet up with another friend of mine at a pizza shop. when we saw her, the first thing she said was...
"why the fuck is your shirt buttoned all wrong?" no wonder all those chicks were laughing at me. whoops.
@Pure_Taint@xanga - if you think there are no bodily fluids laying around, you clearly have never pissed in a public bathroom...
@xinq@xanga - as someone who does statistics for a living, let me throw out the idea that perhaps one guy isn't statistically representative of a population that's 3.5 billion strong...
excuse some of you but why is it you can judge people who have a problem with toilet seats being left up but people can't judge you back if they think differently than you? isn't this a double standard?
@Pure_Taint@xanga - also I had to come up with a term for the people who dont' have a problem with it being left up because they judged people who do have a problem with it as being a "whiny bitch" so in return i think some people are dick-whipped
I actually have to agree with you on this topic. I was thinking about it for a few moments, and it just hit me that my boyfriend actually just uses the toilet with the seat down, so I don't have to worry about it… but then I was thinking about it, and remembered all the times I've had to clean the toilet, so I started thinking about everything I've found under the seat when you lift it up
AND DAMN
God only knows what is on the underside of those things, so unless the male always cleans the toilet seat when he leaves it up, then I would argue that it could be somewhat compared to a girl leaving her used period paraphernalia (where's spell check when I need it?) out in the open.
