The instant you touch literally any surface in that bathroom - public or private - you have somebody's poop on you.
For that reason alone, you should wash your hands.
In fact, I know one guy who washes the public toilet seat - soap and all - before he sits. Can't blame him, really.
good for him i guess that sounds tedious as fuck
personally i eat other people's shit every day
You make me proud, nutsack.
It is the very, very rare occasion that I shit in public.
Last time, i was flying back from the US and into the Netherlands and found one wing of the airport under construction so there wasn't any open gates, but the toilets were open.... you ever shit in an empty airport bathroom? Amazing.
Contrast with the time I was at the same airport a week before and there was actual shit on the floor, dragged across from the rolling luggage to the stall.
If true, this extends out of the bathroom. Poop doesn't magically disappear at that barrier
