to scarlett: removing the curtains? wouldn't that just end up with gallons of water on the floor? seems a bit counterproductive to me. and really, is it too much to ask that you ladies look before you sit?

How many men can honestly say they fell in a toilet because they did not look to see if there was an actual seat in place? I have never once done this, probably because I like to make sure there's somewhere for my ass to go before I commit to the drop.

(although I can admit, in a master/slave relationship removal of such privileges could be integral to the relationship...my reply is in a much more general spectrum though)
