No matter how clean they look, I just cannot bring myself to ever sit on a public toilet. I always hover - great skill I learned from my clubbing days!

I can't hover. I hate it. I have short legs so my hovering abilities are just... pathetic!
I lay TP down and sit on nice soft TP.

Too short to hover, so I have to use the paper seats. Just saying, if nobody hovered we wouldn't have as big of a problem...

I usually do sit, unless it looks gross. I don't go to the kinds of places where they are really gross much anymore (like, bars where people are wasted, etc). I'm pretty good at hovering though and will if the seat looks questionable at all. I hate putting down toilet paper-- I'd rather my butt close to the seat than my hand (though my friend pointed out that you wash your hands right away and not your butt).

I sit right on them (unless they are obviously dirty-- then I wipe them down with TP first). I don't use the paper cover, either.

I hover 75% of the time. The rest of the time, the toilet is clean, so I wipe with TP and sit away!

One of the first life lessons my mom taught me was how to make a toilet cover from TP.

I hate hovering. I'll do it, if it looks dirty (either the seat itself or the bathroom in general), but figure it probably won't kill me. TP covering is just way too much work.

I sit these days...in the past I would hover if it looked gross, but my knees won't support my weight like that while pregnant!

I hover but I have def sat on some toilets when I was inebriated!
The old days...hahaha

Definitely a hover - a skill I perfected in Asia since most of the public toilets are squat ones so you have no choices but to hover!

I always sit...usually the reason the seats are nasty is from the people that hover!
If the seat is like, obviously dripping in pee or something, yeah, I'll hover, but if it's just...seat-like, Imma sit my butt on it.

I always put TP down and sit. I'm too tall to hover, haha. But it's a serious pet peeve of mine when people hover and make a mess and don't clean it up. What kind of person pees on the seat and can't be bothered to wipe it off?

I hover. Even at 39 weeks pregnant I hovered my fat booty over the toilet lol. It was a lovely image for sure.

I sit. Honestly, I know I shouldn't, but I rarely think about things like that. Only if they are obviously dirty, or the place itself is a little sketchy, will I pause and think about it.

@ms.janedoe: Agreed!!
I sit - and never had so much as a rash on my butt. Don't see what the big deal is, actually.

Another shortie here who can't hover without peeing on myself. I always lay down toilet paper or use the provided seat covers then sit.

I only hover if its dosgusting. Or a Porta potty. Except when I was pregnant, I couldn't squat. But if I spray I wipe it off with tp after!

Always sit. I'm with those who say that most disgusting toilets are that way because of hoverers who spray everywhere.
