Womenhave been known to complain that men never seem to grasp theimportance of lowering the toilet seat after use. However, inraising and lowering the toilet seat or toilet lid one exposesthemselves to a myriad of germs and bacteria that jeopardize theirhealth and well-being. As a result, many people resort to trying touse their feet or wrap toilet paper around their hands when raisingand lowering the seat and lid in order to avoid contact, especiallyin public restrooms. Inventor Irizarry hascreated a means by which the raising and lowering of a toilet seatand lid can be accomplished in manner that does not expose the userto unsanitary conditions.
