My ex once said he preferred to poo at work because he enjoyed the idea of getting paid to take a crap. I’m not sure how his coworkers felt but it was a bonus for me.

I prefer to do my crapping in the privacy of my own bathroom, so if I crap at work, it’s because I can’t wait. Which is worse, smelling up the lobby or crapping your pants?

Even suggesting their employees refrain from crapping at work is most certainly against labor laws (in the U.S. at least). Go ahead and exercise your rights there all you want!!

Fucking morons. It’s this need for a black-and-white gender binary. Social policing. We need more unisex toilets.
Male
Female
Fuck you !

As a transgendered person myself, I can definitely sympathize with “bathroom anxiety” and the need for privacy. I’m *still* traumatized by the kind of insensitive arseholes who will follow you into a public rest-room and look over the door to try and sate their own curiosity. It’s a demeaning, humiliating experience I wouldn’t wish on anyone.

Thanks for the idea Shithead. At my previous job, an online English teaching sweatshop in South Africa, a disgruntled employee smeared his excrement all over the men’s loo walls. I left soon after that :S

People who wipe their boogers on the wall are so antisocial I don’t think they’d care about being seen. Ugh.

I would have to crap in an inter-office envelope and hide it in the back of the manager’s desk drawer.

I work at a wannabee glamorous women’s magazine publisher. The managers called a meeting for the women and told us that we were no longer allowed to have bowel movements at work, because the women’s restroom is next to the reception desk, and sometimes the smells waft out, and it doesn’t go with our “elegant” image. Personally I have never smelled anything bad in that area at all.

I’m sure this is against some human right, right?

Now I have my “bowel movements” almost exclusively at work. :^D

Once upon a roadtrip, we stopped at a convenience store and I went into the ladies’ room. There was a boy in there who was at least 11 or 12, and not looking in the least uncomfortable or embarrassed by his presence in the ladies’ room. It was awkward. Someone’s mommy needed to learn to let go.

But my favorite public restroom encounter of all time has to be the time I went to the bathroom at On The Border and overheard a small child (toddler age) being encouraged to go potty. Mom was asking, “do you have to go pee pee or poo poo?” and the little one was apparently thinking it over. I was in the next stall, and when I commenced, the child gasped in tones of discovery, “SHE’S going pee pee!” and the mom replied in the affirmative. All I could think, caught between embarrassment and amusement, was “Thank God I don’t have to go poo poo.”

I have never understood pee/poop shame. Everybody does it. Why try to a maintain an illusion that you don’t?
