Toilets, why is the handle always on the inside of the door?

The world is a dirty place. But it's okay because we have immune systems. If it's not the toilet door it'll be the next door, hand rail, counter top, computer keyboard etc. It is impossible to avoid coming into contact with other people's germs. Get over it.

I agree entirely and a great believe in letting your body fend for itself (hence why I live a healthy lifestyle to give my body the best chance - as a result I've not had so much as a cold since being a child).

However, it's more the principle of it. I just find it gross knowing that someone hasn't washed their hands. I think it's just a case of "ignorance is bliss" rather than the rational thought of everywhere else is covered in germs.
 
I use my pinky to pull the door, unless you've got womans hands its the best way.

A little pee does your hands good too, ammonia makes the skin tougher. Well known fact, certain baseball players pee on their hands in the shower for this very reason.

And unless you've got a compromised immune system, you won't get sick off touching someone elses pee/ dead nob skin cells etc. dried on a door handle.
 
All the doors to offices/toilets in our building that open onto corridors open inwards (into the room) unless they are recessed in so that the door doesn't go out into the corridor. All the corridors need to be clear as they are fire routes (fire exit routes.... err well you know what I mean :) )

Exactly the same bog this morning I had my wee, washed with my 8 way hand washing technique and just as I was leaving a Doctor with a stethoscope was leaving one of the traps.
I decided to slow down a bit and he virtually opened the door about 10 seconds after me :eek:
 
I don't wee on my hands when going the loo.

I touch my clean willy (I know this because I wash it regularly), have a wee, then wash my hands. But what does it matter if I didn't wash my hands? They are still clean as they haven't touched anything dirty as far as I am concerned.

Fair enough if you are retarded and pee all over your fingers or can't managed to wipe your arse properly, then I'd be horrified to see that sort of person then smearing their feaces covered fingers all over the place.
 
They way this thread is going i'm half expecting someone to say they carry empty bottles around with them so they do not have to use public toilets.

Man up!
 
Will never understand why people don't wash their hands after the toilet. I really can't get it. There's so many germs and it takes a moment, think of all the people you come into contact with and have some respect :(

After witnessing the guy next to you pee all over the floor, wall and at least three of his fingers without washing you know it's never going to be a clean getaway.

Been there so many times. The guy needing to open the door I mean, not the guy with soaking fingers. :p

Your penis will never be truly clean due to it's incredibly close proximity to the dirtiest part of your body.

Some people believe that you don't need to because your pee particles go everywhere anyway
believe it or not some people don't wash their hands after they take a number 2 either
