Lockdowns from the COVID-19 pandemic have brought those we live with closer together. The non-scientific survey of 2,000 Americans shows the average American now has six conversations a month with their partner while one of them is on the toilet.  At a time when we can all use a little more "me time," 64% said they're breaking such toilet taboos because of their new lockdown living situations.

Seventy percent of those polled say they took a bath in front of their partner for the first time after the pandemic started; 30% copped to doing "number 1" in their company; 25% admitted to having their partner around when they're doing "number 2."

However, just because it is happening, doesn't mean both parties are cool with it: 31% say while they're comfortable chatting while they're on the commode, their partner isn't cool with it.
