those stainless steel ones are soooooo scary. to me they look like black holes and i really get scared of them.i remember my mum took me to a toilet in southend when i was about 12/13 and i saw those toilets and nearly passed out i was crying and everything. i think i embarrased her but i didnt care i knew that i couldnt use the toilets.
i always check around the toilets aswell because i want to make sure everything is ok for me
you are not alone
