    That doesn’t match my personal experience at all.

    Using the toilet with each other present has been a thing in every relationship I’ve been in. And no, at no point was that a kink of either one of us.

      Same. I know of no couple in my circle where using the toilet in each others presence is anything else but just plain normal. They all do it.

      Edited for clarification, because words = hard

      That’s the exact opposite as my experience.

      I am gay and from Canada and I assume you are straight and from Germany?
      Maybe it’s a regional thing, or a gay vs straight thing?

        Canadian here. It’s not regional. My wife and I use the bathroom while the other is present all the time.

        I am straight, though, so I can’t comment on that theory.

      That’s because your bath and toilet are in the same room. They should be separate.
