The wretched female toilets.
Its 4.15 and suddenly I remembered that promise to pick up my urine test results. Yesterday.
Uh-oh.
…
I think Monday's not too late to go through that medical check up.
…
Then I remembered the yuckiness of that urine test. Dang I hate urine tests. Because females don't have a dick it's not THAT easy to aim into a tiny bottle and fill it half-full. Worse if the washrooms only have toilet-bowls. Ten times worse if the toilet cubicles don't have tissue dispensers.
Which really irks me. HOW CAN A CLINIC NOT HAVE INDIVIDUAL TISSUE DISPENSERS IN THEIR CUBICLES ANYWAY? How does a common tissue-paper dispenser for an entire washroom of three cubicles actually work out to be justified logic in the first place? I mean, sometimes you rush into a toilet cubicle to do your business and you don't even remember to check if they have tissue paper dispensers inside the cubicle. Then when you're done and you realize, alamak, tak-de tisu. Worse, sometimes they have tissue dispensers without tissues.
So what happened the other day was I aimed wrongly a few times (I'm sorry but I'm not that good at discerning where the pee shoots out from), and my fingers got stained. And because I was half-hovering over the sitting bowl, trying to do my best to fill up that puny little urine bottle, I also sprayed a few droplets over the seats lah. *ter-spray*
And because some genius decided it was far more economical to have a common tissue paper dispenser OUTSIDE the toilet cubicles, and there wasn't an individual facet within the cubicle itself, well… so sorry for the next person who came to use the toilet I was in lah.
So there: I really, really, hate some Malaysian toilets.
Such as the female washrooms at Sunway Pyramid's Tanjong Golden Village Cinemas. They are just deplorable.
You know at SP's TGV, we females have to use the sanitary pad disposal bin to keep the doors closed and locked? I usually have to kick it into place. And the floors are ALWAYS wet, and the tissue paper dispensers hardly ever have any tissues.
And I also hate hate hate wet floors in toilets. It's UTTERLY yucky to be wearing thin-soled heels and walking into puddles of dirty water in public toilets.
Also, I hate to find shoeprints on clean toilet seat covers. You know the first time I went to the GSC in Times Square, the place was only three days old, and we were there to catch an 11 am show. I walked into the loo, very impressed at first, then was utterly disgusted to find sneaker marks all over the toilet seat cover.
And I cannot take toilet bowls that are stuffed to the brim with used tissues. You know how you walk into a toilet to see ugly little things floating in the water? GAWD damn it you don't need a WHOLE tissue paper roll just to wipe your bum clean, right? And then you do NOT dump used sanitary pads into the toilet bowls…
Once I saw a young mother in an open cubicle, carrying her toddler over the toilet bowl seat and teaching her how to stand and balance herself on the seat cover. AND THIS WAS IN A FIVE-STAR HOTEL aye. The toilets are SUPPOSED TO BE CLEAN. Why the fuck do you have to stand on the seat covers! WHY ARE YOU TEACHING YOUR LITTLE FIVE YEAR OLD KID TO STAND ON TOILET BOWL SEAT COVERS? I mean, she could have broken the poor seat cover, you stupid mother. And TOILETS IN FIVE STAR HOTELS ARE NOT CHEAP TO BUILD YOU KNOW OR NOT?
It's times like this that I wished I were a guy. At least all I need to do is stand and shoot.

It really makes you wonder how possible could that public sex survey could be. In the toilets? If they are that dirty. I don’t think that’s even possible. How could anyone be turned on by that. Maybe that’s where all the footprints on the seat really come from.
It really makes you think. Then again…some things shouldn’t be explored. Especially Malaysian toilets.

Actually, the reason toilets are wet are because jakuns (even the city ones actually) prefer to spray their ass with the rubber hose. Some people I know don’t have toilet paper in their house toilet because they use water to wash their bums.

Suddenly, I feel 3KGs lighter. From the dinner I won’t be eating tonight. And the supper. And the breakfast.

I could never understand the need for someone to squat on the toilet seat. If you need to squat, find one of those damned squatty potty. Don’t use the nifty ones with seats. But yeah, the lady’s room is usually worse for wear compared to the men’s.

I hate unclean toilets. YUCH!!!!
‘Because females don’t have a dick it’s not THAT easy to aim into a tiny bottle’
I had a female flatmate who used to have trouble just getting it in the toilet. A few times I found she’d gone and p’ed before me, and she somehow got it all over the toilet seat and stuff! [Which is one of the reasons I nicknamed her 'The Animal' in my mind!]

Speaking of squat. On campus toilets, there is actually a sign specifically for asian students that the normal toilets with the seats…are NOT for squatting on. It would have been pretty bad until they had to put that sign up on every campus accomodation toilet door.

Some girls may go to the toilet for a pee and then don’t wipe their fluff at the front. Is this true? Would the panties go slightly yellow because they don’t wipe? Many public toilets don’t have tissue and washing makes everything wet so it’s possible that the girl just puts her panties back on for absorption.
Minishorts can come to my toilet anytime and I can show you how I pee, which may be different to the way Eric pees. Minishorts is afraid that Eric should find out, but assuming that he doesn’t, isn’t the thought so delightfully tempting (not necessarily with Hotpants, but anyone at all)? Imagine it, you could be so experienced. And the boys would love you.
Can you please show us your urine sample? Tee hee..

Urine test? Are you like pregnant or something?

Hey! Stumbled onto your blog and was reading your entry bout toilets .. totally agree about M’sian toilets .. omigod! There’s always footprints/left-over-tissue/stained-toilet-seats-with-you-wouldn’t-want-to-know-what/floaties-in-water … something. Yeesh …

This is a post that explain what my heart is thinking precisely. In Msia, when I’m out, I will only go for the public toilet when it’s really necessary. Else, I used to ‘tahan’ my business till I’m home or if I could find a considerable clean toilet. This is what I love Europe, never have to worry about dirty toilets, and they always have tissue for you.
They have toilets for public, we have toilets for public, but why ours are so much worse?

You know. Some people, they don’t flush. I really don’t know how they can bring themselves to not flush after peeing and then walk out of the cubicle. Goodness! Nowonder the cleaning ladies always complain. I pity them. Even when I go to the gym, some ladies don’t flush. Some flush but they never turn back or at least wait and check whether everything’s properly flushed down.
Hotpants : That’s why we carry tissue packs everywhere. Even if you use water to spray, you need to wipe it dry or you’ll risk getting itches down there due to the spread of bacteria. Or worse come to worse, if you wear panty liners..then it’s not so bad. I think there’s too much info there. Haha.
There was once, I stopped at an R&R on the way to Genting. I saw poop floating. It was a really icky experience, so icky that I never dare use R&R toilets anymore cept when I’m REALLY DESPERATE.

Many years back, there was a news about a guy squatting on the toilet seat and then it broke and collapsed. He injured himself badly with the ceramic went through his ass and thighs…

S-Kay : I don’t see how you can flush each time after using public toilets when most of the time I couldn’t find the flush lever or if there is, usually no water is in the cistern.

Urine test, huh? And they ask for the mid-stream (of pee) some more. So you gotta like steadily urinate, wait one milisecond before aiming that small little bottle to catch mid-stream pee and remove after half filled, to complete that pee cycle. Sigh.
April 9th, 2006 at 5:04 pm
Lickoholic : I think coz I’m lucky to be in cubicles where the flush lever is working with water available too. Heh. Worse come to worse, if there’s a hose at the tap, I’ll use it to at least drain the pee away.

There was once when the cubicle next to the one I was using was occupied by a mother and a little girl. After the mother p’ed, the little girl did, and after that the little girl flushed the toilet.
What happens next? The mother slapped her hand really hard, and said loudly (I bet the whole washroom could hear her) to her daughter “You DON’T flush! The cleaning ladies will help you flush! You DON’T flush! Now let’s go!”

I really dun understand how some people can be so self-centred to be squatting on toilet seats so that they dun dirty themselves and yet not have the mind to clean up the seats after using. And I really wonder how they manage to balance themselves so well on the narrow circumference without slipping. heh.
And I am totally disgusted with sanitary pads opening up and showing their bloody contents when the bins are full and/or when the pads stick to the bins and open up on the opening of the lid. Some toilets provide these blue bags to dispose the pads and apparently not everyone knows tt they should use them!!
Apparently Asians have a really bad sense of hygiene and are really inconsiderate. Everyone hopes for a clean toilet, so why not be more considerate?
