At work there are two toilet rooms, both unixex, consisting of a toilet and sink. There are about 25 men and women that use the toilets. As a general rule I have been good about putting the seat down after I am done going #1. Today it dawned on me, while using the bathroom upstairs where a sign was posted asking guys to put the seat down, that this policy is a bunch of crap. It takes as much effort for us to put the seat up as it does to women to put the seat down. Besides, I am no more willing to touch a seat that was used by someone before me to smear the toilet seat with a bunch of diarrhea. So, from now on, I am going to follow through on my belief that men and women are created equal and start leaving the seat up.
This rant was brought to you by Title IX.

I have to agree with you Bernardo. If you're afraid of falling in the crapper then, to turn a phrase, you need to look before you sit. We have unisex restrooms where I work and I always raise the seat with the toe of my shoe and kick the damn thing down when I'm done.
Maybe you should try it out at home first, just to see how things go over.
Funny thing you should mention about kicking the toilet seat up, because I tend to push the seat up with my foot as well to avoid touching the seat. I always thought it was just me being weird but I guess unique I am not!
