Upstairs is off-limits to guests

Guests shouldn't go snooping into private places in a guests home.

Hosts shouldn't blow their top if someone walks into the wrong bathroom if the bathroom isn't inside of a closed door bedroom. When you gotta go you gotta go.

Guests have no business walking down hallways and opening doors to find a bathroom that they have not been invited to use. Wait for the powder room.

Again, I’m using the upstairs master to poop during a party. Not sure why it’s so hard to accept

But what if I have to breast feed or take a call in there? Maybe I have to rinse a stain out of my blouse and you barge in on me? Maybe I have the host's permission to be there and you don't. Are you going to barge in on me and then give me attitude for being there?

You people are discrediting yourselves with these extremes. You sound loony beyond loony.

I don't necessarily want you going into my teenagers' bathroom. They are responsible for cleaning it and while they keep it reasonably o.k. it really isn't a room meant for guests to see/use. Plus, my teens don't want to clean up whatever mess you might be making while your in there.

Guests should use the bathroom(s) provided for the guests.

+1 Each bathroom in our house has different people who use it and are responsible for cleaning it. It’s rude to assume that everyone has cleaners. We don’t.

We provide a bathroom for guests to use. That’s the one they should use. They are not welcome to use other bathrooms. They are not welcome to wander into any section of the house that has not been shown to them. They are not welcome to make themselves at home in my house unless specifically invited to do so.

Nobody assumes you have cleaners. I don’t think I’ve ever been to the home of someone who had cleaners. I guess it’s wrong to assume you maintain a basic standard of cleanliness and hygiene, but everyone has their flaws. Gross!

My teens do not want to clean up after you. That is all you need to know. Stay out of their bathroom.

+1

It’s not that I care whether a pooper or a snooper think my hygiene is good enough. I don’t. On the contrary, I don’t want them to spread their own filth around the house where someone else in my family would need to deal with it.

It’s really not that hard to use a guest bathroom!

Not everybody even has a guest bathroom. Or an upstairs. People with 5000 square foot homes should just hand out maps to guests indicating which parts of the home are open to the public. The rest of us recognize that in smaller homes, guests will go to most parts of the house by necessity. So have guests that you think are trustworthy.

I honestly think it’s just one poster who does this and keeps talking about it. A low class one who was raised in a barn. It cannot possibly be a common thing.

We had a pretty modest home and we had plenty of guests over - including groups of kids for bday parties and their parents. In all the years that we lived there (close to 20) only 2 people wandered into our master bedroom uninvited. And those two were repeat offenders when we had them over again.

I have never, and I do mean never, gone into a host's living quarters or opened doors w/o first asking if it was o.k. for me to do so.

There are people who do this sort of thing and there are people who never would. Thankfully most fall into the never would category.

Or something kinky. Like that poster who said people can't wander upstairs because she might be having sex. Lock your doors people when you're doing something you don't want people to see!

If you truly can not use the facilities provided to the guests, then you should stay home.

I hope your colon explodes one day, right in the middle of a crowded room.

You sound unhinged. No wonder you have such trouble allowing people into your home.

I'm the PP who says everyone here seems extreme and how I wouldn't care if someone was looking for another bathroom in an emergency.

If I found you in the master suite bathroom without even asking or having been directed I'd never invite you over again. Because there's no way you GET to that bathroom in many houses without first going into a bedroom, realizing it is the hosts bedroom, and then poking around to find the bathroom. Totally inappropriate. I wouldn't kick you out but I'd never trust you in the house again.

Pretty sure the unhinged poster is one who thinks it's appropriate to enter other people's bedrooms uninvited and poop there.

Yeah because that's so much worse than saying you wish someone's colon explodes. Miss Manners would not approve.

+1. It’s the OP. I think her MIL probably tried to discretely go somewhere private upstairs, not knowing she was “forbidden” and accidentally saw the prescription

The secretive creeping pooper and the person who wishes someone's colon would explode in the middle of a crowded room is the same person.
