Why do so many men resolutely refuse to have a poo in a toilet that isn't specifically their own? If I'd bothered keeping count of the number of times a male pal at work/at football/in a pub/at a restuarant/anywhere with public facilities has complained about desperately needing to lay a log but hanging on, sometimes for hours on end, until they get home to dispense it I'd a) be incredibly fucking weird and b) now have a very large number in mind.

If I need a poo and there's a poo receptacle nearby, I'll do the necessary. What is it the rest of you fear? Poo AIDS? A poo monster biding it's time and then shoving itself up your anus the second you let your guard down? I understand if there's no bog roll or if the toilet looks like one of down-town Baghdad's trendier nightspots, but most public toilets are passable. What's wrong with you all?

Also, is this an issue for women? Most of you seem to deny ever needing to poo anyway.
