Bathroom door policy

[morty98 262]

Hello everyone! I was wondering how you go about your bathroom door when peeing (at least the ones of you who happen to pee somewhere in the bathroom 😜). When I was a kid, my family had a strict closed-door policy. Anyways, as soon as I moved out, I stopped caring about whether the door is open or closed, given that I live alone.

How do you deal with the bathroom door when pissing (- where in the bathroom do you piss, then?)? Do you live alone or share your home with family/roomies/...? Do you behave differently if you have guests over?

My wife and I pee in front of each other with the door open. If either or both of my kids are around, I'll close the door. My wife generally leaves it open regardless.

Everyone closes the door for #2.

My husband and kids will leave the door open but I always close it. 9 times out of ten it's cause I'm pee dancing and doing other stuff for my friends on here and I don't want them to know about it 🤣

We have 2 bathrooms, one is ours the other is my sons. My wife and I seldom close the door, she doesn't close it when she uses my son's toilet either. We're very open with pee. Sometimes she lets me watch!

At home with my husband and two daughters I will close the bathroom door but I won't lock it. I'm only going for a wee and I'm not too bothered about them accidentally walking in on me but at the same time I still want a little privacy. They usually know if someone has gone upstairs to the loo so it's rare anyone is interrupted. 

If I have guests over then I always lock the door, even if it is someone I have sat on the toilet in front of many times before.

Given that last sentence, I gather that there are quite a few friends you have peed in front of?

I've peed in front of a handful of friends. Either sharing a stall on a night out or just being invited in with them at their house. It's never been anything sexual. Just girls going together.

We've always had an open door policy for the bathroom. The kids have left home now, but while they were growing up the bathroom door was always open. There would often be one of us in the shower, another cleaning their teeth and a third having a wee while the fourth waited lol. The door was never closed. Even as the kids went through puberty and beyond. They were always relaxed and body positive. 

With guests in the house the rules change and we shut or lock the door. Even with friends.

Bathroom door shut and locked by everyone in the house here. Kids usually bash the door open when I’m in there and just walk in to show me something. But no one interrupts anyone else lol

Only time we close the bathroom door is when there are visitors.

The wife and I are open about peeing and it's quite normal for one of us to be showering and the other on the toilet.

Is that you? 🤣

Open/shut door policy at home when I'm alone, with friends, or with partners

Locked door otherwise. Also when I'm alone I don't tend to pee in the toilet 😉

Totally open in our house where it is usually just my wife and I.   We regularly share the bathroom.   If our (adult) daughter is here then usually push the door towards closed but don't fully close or lock it.   

With other visitors we usually close and lock or at the very least push it towards closed.  I often tend towards the not quite closed in the hope that it might encourage female visitors to do the same so that I can enjoy their sounds.

@Alfresco Does your daughter ever walk in on you or your wife taking a pee if you do not fully close the door?

[Alfresco 11,637]

Well my wife leaves the door fully open when my daughter is around (if it is just my daughter visiting without her boyfriend) and we have often had three way conversations with my wife sat on the toilet and my daughter and I just outside the room. 

Similarly I have continued talking with them when I go to the toilet but just push the door slightly behind me so I am not totally visible.

My daughter does the same as me, not closing the door full and still being willing to chat whilst using the toilet.  Neither of us has walked in on the other, which is more out of mutual respect for a bit of space rather than anything else. We have a pretty small bathroom.

When we have been on holiday and shared a room, we have all got changed in the same room so we have certainly all seen each other naked and there are not really any concerns there, but we still tend to give each other a little privacy

Generally I close the door and lock it as I don’t want other to know of all the positions I try out 🤣

Ooh - sounds interesting!

Years ago, a college friend shared an apartment with five other guys, and the bathroom rule was that you only closed the door when you were pooping.  Otherwise the door was to be left open.

closed but not locked... live with my 2 sisters.... dont want them knowing i go in the sink or the shower cubicle...when no one home I leave it open

Would they be disgusted or do you simply not know about their opinion? Maybe they even pee in the shower, too

At present, with my wife, son, and I sharing 3 bathrooms, the doors are usually open, while peeing, although my wife will often close the door, if my son is home. He and I do not bother closing the door, for either one, unless guests are present.

In my childhood home, with a mother, father, and 3 sisters, my mother left the door open, virtually always, while peeing, and closed it for #2. My father and I closed the door for peeing and #2, and my 3 sisters commonly left the door open for peeing, and closed it for #2, like my mother.
