Which side of toilet for paper holder?
I saw a posting somewhere (maybe here) where the poster was concerned that the toilet paper holder would be on the left side of the seated person. The poster was concerned about right-handed persons using a toilet paper holder on the left side of the seated person.
My wife and I are both right-handed and our 3 bathrooms all have paper holders on the left side of the seated person. We have never had a problem, in fact I don't think we ever even thought about it until I read the above-mentioned posting. Any polite comments?? |

Notwithstanding religious proscriptions against using the right hand at all, it's easier to reach for the TP on the left if right-handed, because if the roll is on the same side as the hand reaching for it, the elbow may be constrained by the wall. That being said, if you want a *real* argument, ask if the paper should come over the top or from behind. -- http://mduffy.x10host.com/index.htm |

We have one of each. I prefer the wall mounted on the left as it is easier to reach. The right mounted one is on the vanity and sits back a bit too far. The guy that mounted it did not want to drill the ceramic tile, but we did in the other bathroom. When it comes time to do the paperwork, I really dont care where it's located as long as there is paper on the roll. Public restrooms have it on either side, and some places just sit the roll on the tank top. As long as there is paper, I'm satisfied! /) (\ .-._((,~~.))_.-, `-. @ @ ,-' / ,o--o. \ ( ( .__. ) ) ) `----' ( / \ / \ / \ PAINTED COW |

Put it on the same side of the bathroom as the toilet for maximum results. Is there corn cob holders being installed? -- Tekkie |

This is actually a good thing as the toilet paper can stay clean away from the germs and pollutants inside toilets. Some public toilets in Hong Kong is designed that way. -- @~@ Remain silent!
