Do you find it GROSS to not flush the toilet when you pee?

i’m a very envirionmental friendly kind of girl, so i take little steps. two of these being, i use very little toilet paper to wipe, and i do not flush the toilet when i urinate.

i get yelled at all the time. OF COURSE i do in public for sanitary reasons and over others houses. why is it gross not to flush when i urinate?
i live with all guys any way, so….

Because the smell of urine permeates the bathroom/house. And a bowl of urine inside a house is just disgusting IMO.

I agree with Chameleon. Plus the germs and stuff dont stay in the bowl.

During the night, it is better not to flush if it is just a wee, to avoid waking the household and to preserve water. If the toilet is cleaned properly and regularly, germs should not be a problem.

If you’re not going to flush it, at least shut the lid.
If there is no lid, you’d better flush to keep the germs in (if I’m not mistaken).

yes mam, i shut the lid… how do germs spread from urine anyway? it never sits there for more than 2 hours. five people– one bathroom- it’s used a lot! hence why i just leave my urine in the bowl!! it will be flushed soon by someone within the hour so…

I live with 4 “men” and I often enter the bathroom to find someone else’s nasty urine in the bowl. I hate it. It’s disgusting at least to the people that don’t own the urine! :P

Sounds reasonable. All attempts at hygiene have been taken. Sounds like it is just saving water. With the disinfectant in the bowl, and the lod down it just seems sensible.

Just remember, these are just opinions. Do what you think is best, and live how you find acceptable.

ick… i find that when my step son doesnt flush after he uses the toilet.. it smells very badly.. rather than using this one thing to be environmentally efficient, find something else you can save on… to help your cause…

Either way flushing or not flushing you get germs, it’s better to close the lid and then flush to keep all germs away, the coldness of the water running around the bowl kill all the germs, just simply closing the lid will not help as the germs and “crawl” out, closing the lid before flushing insure the germs aren’t “thrown” about the bathroom landing on your hair brushes, tooth brushes and more, 1 way you could limit the water is to turn down the amount of water released back into your toilet but not flushing is gross in more than 1 way.

Eat asperagus then leave your pee sit. Pity the person that goes to take a dump in that pee and his log drops in the water causing it to splash right back up his open butt hole
