Dear Dr. Dave and Dr Dee, All my life I had the toilet paper dispense from over the top because I thought that was proper. My extremely proper girlfriend insists that the "proper etiquette" is to have the paper dispense from the back. Please settle this. Signed, Top or Bottom Dear Top or Bottom, Dispensing toilet paper over the top or from the bottom is not a matter of proper etiquette but of personal preference. Most people prefer toilet paper be dispensed over the top. The Scott Paper Company conducted a poll and found older folks (over 50 years old) clearly preferred to have their toilet paper dispensed over the top by more than 4 to 1 (www.scottpaper.ca). |
