Remember how I've described toilets as "real" like the ones we're used to (thank God), and the other kind being the hole in the floor? Well, all rooms that have water - restrooms, kitchens, etc., all have large round drains in the floor, and all the toilets have the magic hoses.
I think our Arab sisters use the drain instead of the toilet. Here's the hint. The floor is always wet in the restrooms. And in public toilets, there is usually someone in there to squeegee the floor after each use.
This makes for interesting living because we all wear long skirts, dresses, and abayas. So we have to remember to pull up our clothes from the floor so they don't get wet, while also pulling them down to take care of business.
Going to the toilet here takes forethought and dexterity. Think about this the next time you race in and out.
