What Do You Do When There's Wee On A Public Loo Seat?

Wipe it, use it, wash hands. No problem. I blame hoverers too. Don’t see the point of hovering.

I can never understand how grown women can make and then leave a mess on a toilet seat. Understandable for a young child but mum should check that all is clean before leaving.

If I have that happen.... I hover
Don’t blame me MissAdventure I m an extremely well rehearsed hoverer with strong leg muscles

Yes, I know the topic is strange (and I nearly conflated it with the similar 'flushing' one but didn't want to hijack that one) but it really is something that I have been thinking about. Yes, I know, too much time on my hands!

In an interval at for example, the theatre, there is always a huge queue with often only three or four cubicles in the ladies section. Or perhaps in a station where people rush for trains. Everyone has their eye on the time and there is often no such luxury of waiting for another stall to become free.

I am always in two minds as quite what to do: wipe (which I usually do) or brazen it out on my departure.

I just wonder what others do...

I'd do the same as Calendargirl but if it's a real mess in there, I back out and wait for another cubicle to come free.

Some strange threads being started - this one and another about whether you flush each time confused

If there’s a dirty toilet, I walk in, walk out again.
Difficult when in a queue, so when faced with the wee on seat and floor, here is my modus operandi: wipe seat then throw sheets of toilet roll on the ‘floor wee’, then when I stand up, move the ‘wet floor’ tissue to the side of loo with my foot.
Scurry out, hoping next person doesn’t think it’s me... ?

I blame the hoverers.
If there is a choice, then I just use a different toilet.

I object to having to mop up after dirty people.

If i`m desperate i use wet wipes and clean it up,other than that i go to another cubicle.
My brother noticed women`s toilets seem far more un-clean than mens these days.
My brother is in the pub trade by the way.haha.

If possible, I would choose another loo.
If not, I would get some loo paper and wipe it off, grimacing as I did, then wash my hands extra well when I finished.
I always check if there is loo paper before sitting down.

I always seem to choose a loo in which the previous (or one long since gone) occupant has left wee on the loo seat (and sometimes a puddle on the floor - no attempt to clear it up).

Through gritted teeth, I wipe it off because... I don't want the person following me in to think it was MY wee!

Do you wipe up, leave it in situ or loudly say 'Harumph' so those in the queue behind you know it's not yours!

Having not actually been in a loo queue for many many months, you can see how this wee problem(!) has been worrying me!

PS
I of course understand that there are emergencies and people have to dash to the loo but couldn't they clear up afterwards?
