We always close the lid before flushing and leave it down. Problem solved.

It can't be as bad as a garderobe in a medieval castle!

Anybody got the cliff notes? It seems to be a pay blocked site.

Um, actually it's my ad blocker. I'm not going to disable it.

I agree. I always use a clorex wipe before I touch the handle.

But those are her own germs.

No, they mean the outside bottom of the purse. The part that's been sitting on various floors. But we don't generally touch the bottoms of our purses.

I don't worry about that either.

As for purses, I've never put mine on the floor.

I avoid public toilets like the plague they are, and always have since I was old enough to smell. On the rare occasoins I have to sit down I line the seat with TP. So I get very little exposure anyway. I cleaned shopping cart handles for 2 years of the pandemic but no longer do that. I use hand sanitizer when I get back to my car and don't worry about it again. I would hate to be OCD and obsess over it.

I don't worry about shopping cart handles I just wash my hands when I get home from the market.
I have been putting my purses on the floor for ages. No harm has come to me from it.
