I try my best too - but I don't have strong muscles in my legs...so I can't always squat.

Honestly...I try and avoid using the bathroom in public places at all costs.

But...I am a squatter.

I only sit on mine and my mothers.

I sit because I read somewhere that hovering actually does something with the bacteria down there and could lead to infections



Found this:

To Squat or Not?

Who hasn't hovered over a seat to pee? Problem is since the position isn't really relaxing, your bladder may not empty completely. The residual urine can breed bacteria, leading to a urinary-tract infection. The habit can also cause incontinence later in life. Bottom line: squatting once or twice a week won't lead to problems, but more can.




Sounds so much better than what I saidChat Icon

Nope! I put one of the seat covers down or toilet paper.
