Women's restrooms aren't usually too bad, but i was grossed out at the women's restroom where I worked a few years ago, by someone who kept wiping their boogers on the backs of the doors. Good grief, you're sitting right next to some toilet paper you filthy idiot!
I'm pretty sure she was doing it on purpose. Talk about some hostility. yuck...

*urk* I don't want to think about that too much, I just ate lunch.
I always close the lid before I flush at home. Hate bathrooms with no lids. Studies have shown that the flush actually propels microscopic spray into the air as high as 8 feet! Don't want my toothbrushes nearby either.
A good reason for you guys to put the seat and lid down when your done. At least at home.

Men's and women's bathrooms are about equally disgusting (as someone uniquely qualified, I can attest).
I have to clean the ones at work. Uhhh, two drunk chicks were in there (and I'm pretty sure) doing lines on the sink. I s*** you not. I bailed and told security, I should have told them what I cleaned off of there last week!
Often, women will nearly strip in the bathrooms and stay for long periods, and men just get stuff everywhere. Ick, Life. /rolls eyes

The guy from Dirty Jobs (Mike something) did a special recently focusing on all the disgusting germs, etc. you find on the average human body. Part of it showed just how much icky stuff is expelled from toilets when you flush them. I'm now wondering if there are remote control devices available for flushing purposes.
There are many dirty people out there and many that don't care about their hygiene- this includes restaurant employees. I constantly see people who go #1 or #2 and when done they just walk out of the restroom without washing their hands. I go often to San Manuel Casino in San Bernardino and always witness this. There's hand sanitizer stations spread around the casino floor and you know the slot machines are filthy. Each time I use a public restroom I always open the door while holding the paper towel I just used to dry my hands. Another thing to watch for is fast food restaurants that have bins for plastic ware that are not individually sealed. Sometimes the bins are stuffed with forks, spoons and knives and they are tight to pull out. I've seen people handing different utensils as they look for the loosest one to pull out. YUCK.
Back in high school I delivered pizza for roundtable. Actually a great job for a 17 yr old. Tips were great!
Anyway, some of the guys in the kitchen were disgusting. This roundtable required everyone in the kitchen to wear gloves. Regularly, multiple times a day, when these guys used the bathroom, the simply wouldn't take off the gloves. They'd go do their business, 1 or 2, with the same gloves on they prepare pizza with. Then they figured because they were wearing gloves, no need to wash their hands! So by the end of their shift, you can imagine what filth was on their gloves. Multiple trips to the bathroom worth.
As an aside, I do find the lack of courteousness from others in regards to washing hands quite revolting. One of the dirtiest things in a public bathroom is the inside door handle. So even if you wash your hands, touching the handle on the way out negates the soap you just used. I use a paper towel and just toss it in the garbage after opening the door.
BTW, two of the dirtiest things out there you may not know about. Women, the bottom of your purse. Tracks germs everywhere. Also, the handle of grocery carts. Saw a study a little while ago that over 90% of grocery carts have fecal matter on the handle, partly because of children sitting their and resting their hands on the handle. Nasty, but good to know, since you're usually handling your food at the same time.

Actually, if you don't like really nasty, dirty things, you should never kiss anybody on the mouth. The human mouth is one of the dirtiest, germiest places. Dirtier than dogs' mouth by far.
While I like cleanliness and courtesy, some people carry germophobia too far. Scientists say human children aren't developing immune systems as strong as their forebears', because of the more recent craze for anti-bacterial products. Why? Because you can't develop immunities without being exposed. Basically that's what vaccines do, They expose you to a small amount of the bacteria, so your body can develop its own antibodies.
While there are certainly some very dangerous viruses, bacteria and other diseases out there, generally most things aren't going to hurt you and just make your immune system stronger. Some bacteria are, in fact, beneficial or even essential to our health.
