Ms. Theologian responds to urine

Dear Ms. Theologian:

In my workplace (a clean upper crusty sort of place) some of the women insist on peeing while squating over the toilet. How do I know this? I see their urine on the seat. This irritates me to death! Any suggestions?

Dear Irked:

Ms. Theologian knows women who only pee standing up. Their moms told them it was unhygenic to sit. Their moms actually knew little about public health, but at least they cared.

Upon reflection, Ms. Theologian realizes this is a classic example of rights vs. responsibilities in a community. It's a common debate in our society, though it's under the surface. These individuals feel they have the right to a stand-up pee. But they neglect the responsibility to wipe the seat upon finishing.

Since it bothers you so, Ms. Theologian suggests posting a large sign in the women's room instructing women to wipe the seat. Ms. Theologian might volunteer to illustrate it.

--Yours in fear of urine,

Ms. Theologian
