I cannot tell you how many times I’ve made a noise on the toilet and been so embarrassed that I actually end up waiting for anyone who heard it to leave, just so I can stay anonymous

I don’t think there will be anyone who objects to this. There is nothing in a bathroom worth listening to. Nobody socializes in a bathroom. It’s as quiet as a library, and any bodily noise completely gives you away

Please just add background music to bathrooms. Even with quiet background music, you could at least strategically defecate to the tempo to make it sound like it’s part of the song

I hate public bathrooms, please make them bearable

    No but people will see me. They aren’t blind

    If people have to see me walk out of a bathroom stall, I’d rather they not have heard my noises

      Yeah but no one will know your name. You remain anonymous, so does it matter?

      Work bathrooms are one grey area though.

        I do go to a work bathroom. That’s actually what forced me to overstay my 15 minute break by a few minutes and subsequently inspired my post

          Yeah that makes some sense, although people can usually tell who’s in the stall anyway.
