    I think people's books and magazines in the bathroom can say a lot about who they are. I only look when I'm at someone else's house because I'm curious...or because I'm in there for a while.

    I'm just wondering if I'm the only one. I'll include a poll for those who are too embarrassed to answer.

    I voted other because I don't "read" the books or magazines in other people's bathrooms. Depending on how close I am with the home owner I'll peek through their selection just to see the types of reading material they bring into their home (: I'm always curious haha.

    I honestly can't remember the last time I visited somebody who had books/magazines in their bathroom. But if I do come across them in the future, I won't touch them. (Germs!!! haha)

    I do :). I usually don't spend too much time in someone's bathroom unless I know them well, but I at least always thumb through their stack to see what they're reading. I'm also the weirdo who will occasionally peek in a cabinet or two just to see Embarassed

    Yes, isnt that what theyre there for!?! I keep a magazine basket in our guest bathroom specifically so people have something to read because I always love reading or thumbing through what other people have. I figure that youre probably reading before youre touching your nether regions so I dont think its that big of a deal. And I wash my hands after anyways so I think its fine!

    I do!  What else am I going to do while I sit in there?  If there is reading material available, I'm going to take a look!

    Why else would it be in there?

    I leave small funny books in my guest bathroom. People always comment on them. That's why they're there!

    Nope.

    I might look (at the covers etc), but I won't physically touch or flip through them- I don't know their hygiene habits.

    If there is a good gossip magaine hell yeah I'll read it.  I don't buy the gossip mags so I like catching up :)  I know people read ours...I keep Sunset, Maxim, Playboy and a Glamour in our magazine holder.  Personally...I love Maxim and Playboy, I think the articles are way better then the girly mags.

    Ick, no!  I don't even usually read magazines in offices/waiting rooms, and defiantly NEVER in bathrooms!  You never know what people are touching, and the magazines always look like they've been flipped through by a million people before me!
