    I really only go at home. I can go at work if needed, but I seek out the rarely used restrooms. Fortunately, there are a ton of those in my building. :)

    I gotta go, I go. I eat lots of fiber.
    I try to wait if there is someone in the restroom at work, unless they're on their cellphones. :wink:

    Don't know if any of you have a home carbonator but as I was reading this thread, I could hear my brother using it. I'll never think of that device in the same way again.

    How many of you have been in this situation: Sitting in a public restroom in a Jeff Daniel's Dumb and Dumber moment, waiting painfully for the ONE other occupant to leave! Or at least flush so you can go with the flush, hoping it's sounds mask your own? Oh, um... yeah me neither :blushing:

    So I'm totally embarassed asking this but hey, I'll probably never meet any of you so what the heck....... :laugh:




    Are you comfortable going #2 anywhere but home? Can you go at work, on vacation, in a public restroom?

    Or do you hold it until you get home, wether that's a day or a week?

    I'm just curious if I'm alone in my answer because I would hold that *kitten* (no pun intended) until I got home. Even if it might not be for a day or too.
    I can go anywhere but hate it.

    I too can go pretty much anywhere.. Got over it camping with no bathrooms out in the middle of no where.. Kills the shy thing quickly

    IBS is the worst..........the woods along the side of the road has worked for me ! So I don't care.....actually having a potty to use is just a bonus as far as I am concerned !!!!

    I go when I need to. Not always comfortable with the venue but much better than the alternatives of constipation, haemorrhoids and/or diverticular disease.

    I'll go anywhere. Holding it really isn't worth the embarrassment you might save of spending 3 minutes in the toilet.

    I'd rather go away from home, makes it easier when I have to clean the bathroom

    when you gotta go, you gotta go. and as someone else pointed out, we all gotta go sometime. Holding it in can cause all kinds of issues w/ your intestines and bowels... ok, maybe if you want to wait til you get home that night, but holding for days can cause serious issues.... sometimes, if need be, i'll do the Ace Ventura impersonation... "Come out of the restroom, waving your hands for fresh air, point to the restroom door and say: WHEW!!! You do NOT want to go in there!!" gets a laugh... if you are concerned with odor though, carry a can of air spray in your purse and don't be afraid to use it AS you walk into the rest room!

    there was one time I peed in a public stall and the woman next to me was taking a crap- and she was farting and it sounded sooo nasty, and wet and gross and she was GIGGLING and saying things like "oh my word" and stuff, you could hear people geeking out, by the sinks, I was so embarassed FOR HER, and FOR MYSELF for being in the same room, I sat in that bathroom for close to 20 minutes waiting for EVERYONE to leave, and no one to be in there to sneak out. I'm that stupid about it.

    I too am funny where I drop the deuce. I'm a mechanic and the bathroom at work is disgusting. I haven't used it yet. That being said, I don't mind hanging my *kitten* off the side of a log if I'm camping. Dead wood is sterile right? lol

    I've never, ever, ever, done this. I've also never tried waiting it out (the dreaded "I was here first, I'm holding on until you leave" game), just to end up leaving because I had to go so bad, and then go to a different floor in my building that has nobody in the bathroom...

    LOL-I used to be this way at work. It made me constipated when I held it in. So, if nature calls-I answer. (I can't believe I'm writing about this.) LOL :)

    Poop occurs naturally, so as long as I don't need a hazmat suit to use the facilities no worries.

    The only reason I try not to use a public restroom for pooping is the toilet paper quality. 9 times out of 10 the toilet seat cover is stronger and I don't relish trying to pull my pants up one-handed because the other got soiled. Only time I think I was ever uncomfortable was when I was sharing a hotel room with my boyfriend. I turned on the faucet when I went.
