I think it's that a woman sitting bear-butted in the dark on a seatless toilet is likely to get stuck in the john (remember, it happened to Allie on TV). A man, tinkling in the dark, only messes up a seat left down. An annoyance for the maid, but hardly a serious problem. To me the critical thing is that man and wife should have separate private johns or johnnets and each should pee in their own appliances. One of the most charming houses I ever owned enjoyed a double bathroom in the master suite. Two closets in the dressing room, two sinks, two huge mirrors, a two person shower and tub, a bidet and a biddette, appropriately plumbed, and two, side by side, johns. Quelle delicatesse! |
