Don’t worry about the drivers watching you as you cross the street. Worry more about walking along a busy street for half an hour, with a 5-foot-long “tail” of toilet paper sticking out the back of your pants. (Been there, done that, laughed like an idiot when it was pointed out to me.)
I don’t worry about people hearing me going when I’m in a public washroom. What worries me, is that when I make a rude noise in there, I will try to stifle my inevitable giggles, but it won’t work. Rude noises are to be expected in a public washroom. Insane giggles from the person who made them, are not!
In restaurants, my brother always insists on sitting with his back to the wall, and facing the door. It’s not a phobia. It’s his self-defence training. You can’t defend yourself, if you don’t see the danger coming. And all those little kids running around are pretty dangerous!
