like sex, a visit to the toilet requires that you unzip, undress, pull down, anyway expose private parts. like a visit to the toilet, sex is about discharge of body fluids so we could call sex-in-toilet 'assisted discharge of body fluids'. that means new design for sex-allowed toilets. men and women sections are directly opposite and separate by door. in every toilet restroom there will be two doors, one to go in n out and one behind toilet seat to connect to opposite-sex section of the toilet building. if you want sex knock up the door behind toilet seat and ask 'may I assist with the discharge?' :lol)

You are in a small local library and the toilet has run out of toilet paper. The library is small and people can hear you talking to the staff at the desk. Would you ask for toilet paper or go find some toilet else to occupy? I remind you the library is small and people can hear what you're asking for. You might want to ask me how I thought of that. I normally wouldn't have a problem asking until I overheard this Chinese girl ask the staff for new rolls. Sitting near by, reading my book and hearing her asking so confidently gave me second thoughts. Would I dare ask for it if I was in the same situation? I don't know. There's nothing wrong with asking for toilet paper if it run out unless the toilet was stuffed with tens of rolls when you got in. But that's almost never the case. So why don't I feel comfortable being overheard, maybe it's cultural, what you think?

every time we leave the task of rolling toilet paper to manual, we use more than we need. an automatic toilet paper dispenser that locks in the amount of paper to be rolled and cut would be a good product idea for savings on the paper's use by adults and children alike. each family member inputs in memory the desired length of toilet paper that they think is right/optimal for them. the gadget should be designed and marketed for use by everyone and not be seen as an aid for disabled folks only.

Designate one toilet in the plane for express use. Make it that passengers cannot stay longer than 2 minutes. On long flights, economy seat passengers often use the toilet after a meal is served or before the plane is ready to land. A queue forms when the passengers who use the toilet stay in for long making those waiting outside grow restless. An express toilet, intended for a quick wash of the hands or fast discharge of body fluids of the impatient kind, makes in-flight customer service more satisfying. There should be an automatic counter that times duration of use and displays the time remaining to those waiting outside and to the person using the toilet inside.

It's a toilet that uses runoff water from your sink. It's totally safe and reduces water consumption. I think it's a beautiful idea. Kind of a strange thing to say about a toilet, but it is. A variation of it is to install a mini hand washing sink in the top of the toilet. Then all the water from just cleaning/disinfecting would go right into the tank. A set up that involves the shower as well as ultraviolet light for killing bacteria would be ace if it leads to no-harm unlimited flushing.

do you ever think of toilet paper? we use it so much it's a necessity. we love to abuse, scratch, stain, scrub and tarnish it, don't we? we molest rile and rag its lovely white color on a rolling basis every single day...if products had rights, toilet paper rights would by definition of use be absolutely shitty and toxic! perhaps if we could reverse the effects of use by coming up with a new kind of toilet paper that comes in crap color and switches to clean white after use. you know, it goes from maculate to immaculate and from molested black to extra virgin white. imagine swiping your ... black with it and the paper comes out white instead. that would be The revolution in toilet paper rights!

It's been suggested before only as a joke, now let me reiterate it as a half-joke. If printing money is the answer to massive debts and global deflation could we ask that central banks print money on toilet paper so that it's rendered useful if zimbabwe-style inflation sets in? If the quality of paper is smooth and rectum-friendly we won't need foreign exchange markets either. We can just barter, trade, swap, insure or invest in each country's toilet paper comparative advantage. And unlike forex markets, almost every single person in the world uses toilet paper. We're talking of a potential 7-billion-people-essentially-single-currency economy here. Keep it in mind please!

If you visited Japan, you might have seen the traditional squat toilet, it is still in use in many public places. If you haven't seen it before check the photos I uploaded. Can you guess why there is a hemispherical hood on one end? There was a reason for it. Prevent long kimono dress from spoiling when Japanese women squat over it. A tip from me for women who might have to use traditional toilet when you come to Japan. Wear high heels, it helps keep a good balance when you squat. I don't know what works for men though... :)

Most public toilet doors are thick and heavy (airports, stations, restaurants etc). You must push hard to open them. Every time I have to push hard to open a toilet door, I feel as if someone is blocking my entry from behind the door. What's wrong with making the doors lighter and easier to push?

Have you ever thought why we wipe our mouth with napkins but our asses with "toilet" paper? In my view, this is serious tissue discrimination. Both should be called napkins and to distinguish between the two, the words mouth or ass should be added respectively, and respectfully. Wiping an ass with a napkin sounds more politically correct and respectful than wiping it with "toilet" paper. The tissue is not the issue. The issue is being fair to all tissue even if the ass one is of "toilet" paper quality. Our bums will feel better when they hear a napkin is about to wipe them off. Yes, I do believe our asses can feel and I also think calling toilet paper ass napkins shows respect for our bums' feelings. I implore you to take calling toilet paper a napkin seriously as this is also your arse we're talking about, sound nice to it... (read more)
