ddavelarsen Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 Have you ever noticed how women put the toilet paper roll on with the loose end against the wall (where no how hard you try, you cannot get hold of it), while men put it hanging to the outside? What's up with that?!

What's up with that?! I have an explanation. Hips. When a woman sits down to take care of business, if the roll is close to the commode her hips will brush the roll. If the end is on the outside of the roll when this happens, it will lower to the floor. If the end is against the wall side, when this happens, the end will go UP as her hip brushes against the roll and thus keeps the end off of the floor. This is not MY explanation, but one that was related to me by my wonderful wife whose hips were one of the MANY things that attracted me to her. Edited May 19, 2010 by Phaseman66
stormchas3r Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 WOW, I was just thinking about this the other day. I could never understand it. I think the hip thing is accurate. Or they could be doing it to make our lives miserable. heehee.
NeRo9k Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 What a random question - I agree though, it's definitely strange and mostly an annoyance.
mcquinn Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 When I was in the AirForce you got gigged for not having it over the top.This is the subject of a commercial that has been airing lately as well.I think this bears further investigation .
Christopher Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 Man that drives me nuts! I always have to switch the toilet paper when my wife puts it in
Luke Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 My last GF did that too, I would just keep a loose roll on the back of the toilet. lol I got tired of playing the "Switch the roll game" hahaha

No kidding? There's really a commercial about that? Then I guess I'm not crazy after all. I was honestly kind of wondering if it was just me. Whew!

LOL! So I'm really waiting for one of our ladies to step up here and explain this once and for all. Then it may no longer be a mystery! Or not. Edited May 19, 2010 by ddavelarsen
DevilDucky Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 Around our house we put it with the loose end towards the wall but we have 3 cats and if we didn't we would have confetti/party streamers in the bathroom!
seaspine Posted May 19, 2010 Posted May 19, 2010 I thought women were to only ones the put toilet paper in the holder,I just set the roll on the back of the toilet.
