Eeeeeewwwww, You guys are all overlooking something. When you flush the toilet, whatever is IN the toilet becomes aerosol. It gets OUT of the toilet and coats every surface. This process takes up to half an hour, so for half an hour after every flush, all the surfaces in the bathroom are being covered with whatever was in the bowl. This is why I cringe at the pictures of chaise lounges and bowls of fruit in the bathrooms of Better Homes and Gardens magazine. So, oh forget it. I leave the rest up to your imaginations and what you do with this information is up to y’all. I personally keep my toothbrush and other things INSIDE the medicine cabinet and I also keep a spray bottle of bathroom cleaner handy. ALWAYS!
