    Reminds me of the guy that spent his entire life sitting on the toilet with the seat up because he was told “girls use it with the seat down and boys have the seat up”.

    It wasn’t until he got comfortable enough with his partner that when she saw him and asked why he wasn’t sitting on the seat did it even occur to him that he could.

      Unless it’s your kink, most people don’t use the toilet in front of their spouse.

      Edit: It sounds like a lot of straight people expel waste in front of their partners.

        That doesn’t match my personal experience at all.

        Using the toilet with each other present has been a thing in every relationship I’ve been in. And no, at no point was that a kink of either one of us.

          That’s the exact opposite as my experience.

          I am gay and from Canada and I assume you are straight and from Germany?
          Maybe it’s a regional thing, or a gay vs straight thing?

            Canadian here. It’s not regional. My wife and I use the bathroom while the other is present all the time.

            I am straight, though, so I can’t comment on that theory.

          Same. I know of no couple in my circle where using the toilet in each others presence is anything else but just plain normal. They all do it.

          Edited for clarification, because words = hard

            My wife and I respect each other’s bathroom privacy because it’s simply something we don’t care to see, although she-like nearly all females I know- doesnt know how a door works and can’t close it. We now live in a place where we have separate bathrooms, and it’s awesome.

            so everyone always locks the door? even if one person needs something from the washroom they would always wait till the other person finishes?
