Default Wallpaper removal question

I cant stand wallpaper- looks incredibly cheap to me. I took the
wallpaper of my house first thing.

In my case the wallpaper had brown backing. When was the hosue made?
If you have plaster walls, then the brown backing is definately from
the wallpaper, and needs to be removed. Anyone who puts wallpaper in
a bathroom should be drawn and quartered.


??? My bathrooms have ALWAYS had wallpaper and they've never peeled. We
rarely run the exhaust fans when taking showers, either. I put wallpaper in
my mother's bathroom 10 years ago, and it still looks great today, with no
peeling. What's the big deal? I can't understand how anyone can put up with
flat, painted walls. No pattern, no texture. Yuck.
