I am very regular. It is rare that I need to go when away from home unless I am on vacation. I have no major problem with using a public toilet if the need is pressing.

I have never in my life paid a hooker for sex of any sort, but there have been time I would have paid 50 bucks for a good clean toilet.

I typically "go" everyday. It would have to be a real emergency for me to go anywhere other than work or home. I could... I just choose not to.

Trips/hotel stays are different.

I worked for 13 years at my last job and never once dropped a duece there. It became a running joke with my friends. I avoid public restrooms unless it is an emergency.

"Holding it in" is not a good practice.
Buy a little spray bottle of alcohol and teach him to wipe down the toilet.

Being a bit "pee shy" is normal, but humming or thinking of other things works.

Some folks have a problem with public restroom's having flush valves which splash dirty water everywhere when you pull the handle.

I say unless you have open wounds on your azz, have a seat get on with it.

good for you that he can hold it. My boy didn't want to do it in public rr but couldn't hold it neither. He wanted me to take him home, or some nice public rr to leave his stuff :lol:. Solution, make him visit the rr at home before going anywhere.

Never my first choice, I concur, find a hotel. Military always treated me well with "private" accommodations.

Man, they can take a dump and call it the day. 5 minutes later, they can go again and leave a big chunk in there. they are too small to clean themselves out at once. I wish it was that easy. Yes, we force them to go before leaving the house.

Who has two thumbs and won't drop a duece in a public toilet? THIS GUY!

Traveling sales rep for 25+ years. I can count on my left hand how few of times that I have.

My two sons are just as bad as I am.

I don't like an unclean public restroom but it's really really bad not to go when that doorbell rings.

I have taken a dump on almost every continent on this toilet of a planet!!!
I have been to some pretty bad places so a rest area or gas station in the states is a luxury
