Magazine rack in powder room

Magazines in loos this is so 70s, always remember these mags were specifically catered for randy men.

Me.. Its a no, well its anti social, who knows how long someone will sit on the loo, what the hell are they doing;)
 
Yuck! Public toilets are my big gripe. How many people do you see use the toilet and then just walk out without cleaning up? I have toiletdoorhandleaphobia. After washing my hands I'll stand there until someone comes in and slip out before the door closes or I'll use a paper towel to open the door. I can't imagine the door handles ever being cleaned in public toilets.
 
I once saw a super gross Mythbusters episode where they showed how much fecal matter got on things from a toilet flush. I almost threw up

Watched a version of this around 15 years ago with hubby - ever since then he's put the toilet lid down ... :D ... not seats up in my house.

I wouldn't put magazines in the guest toilet as it comes across tacky ... that being said I'll happily take a book in with me to the ensuite.
 
Yep. That's why I'll never point a toilet in a bathroom or en-suite if I've got the choice. Toilets deserve their own special place.

Totally agree.
Long live the out-house!!
I'm sure the days of a bathroom with separate toilet will return soon. It's a selling point for me.
No mags Perp - I'm sure your ensuite is very nice though.

That reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where the pizza owner went to the toilet did not wash his hands, then onto making pizzas ...oh no, funny stuff, but yuk
 
Wrap your noodle around this one, Myf. You're breathing some in, too. Yep.

Of course I am. And being a Mum I have touched more poo than I ever want to. I just prefer to not touch a strangers poo :) When I'm at people's houses I go to the loo to do my business then be back socialising, I'm not going to prolong it by having a good old read :)

Being female - and using female public toilets - I am always so shocked at how many women DO NOT wash their hands! :eek: They just walk out ... so gross!

Yes, same.

Getting back to those magazines in the loo, what about contamination/germs on the magazines, how many will be viewing these, their little fingers flicking through the pages....

So many serious issues to consider??:eek:

Will everyone be happy with the topic matter?
Will they be updated regularly, nothing worse than old magazines?
Location of the magazines? Need easy access, don't want any accidents, could get very nasty?

There must be other serious issues that need to be considered prior to going down the "Magazine in Toilet Route";)
 
Hilarious thread! :D

Seriously, though, if people need reading material whilst they're in the toilet they have bigger problems than I need to know about :eek: Maybe it's time to re-assess the posture pose and get squatting to save time LOL :D
