But it's very clean!
Dude, pee. PEE.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I've been told "It's just pee!"
What the fuck do they think is on toilet seats that keeps them from SITTING ON THEM?

As a caution to Jesse's rant, my mother got scabies from a toilet seat that was in a public venue. My mother was really really really grossed out and appalled by this. My public health nurse aunt helpfully offered that it was better than getting them from a secret boyfriend she was having an affair with-note, fictional. My mother replied that at least then she would have been having fun.
However, there are only select circumstances I resort to squattage. Bus stations, for one.

When I was little, my mom would always tell me to sit on my hands to pee in a public restroom. But it seems like I might rather have the pee on my thighs than ON MY HANDS!!!
Also, when your feet don't touch the floor it is really hard to a) squat or b) hold yourself up by your hands like my mom wanted.
Basically now I look, wipe, and sit unless I am in some skanky craphole place, in which case I will a) hold it or b) pee in a secluded area outside.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Yeah! What was with the hands thing??

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Sophia's method is mine. Holding it is often a very good choice.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'll often use a seat cover or toilet paper, but I still sit all the way down.

So my mom's horror story hasn't caused a rash (heeheeehee) of conversions to squatting, huh?

If you can squat and aim (or wield the tissue paper) I figure it's fine.

Well, that's odd. I wouldn't have thought it was a good medium for much of anything, temperature-wise. But I can see how it would be most upsetting. Still, unless someone else has evidence to the contrary, I'm going to guess it's a vanishingly rare occurrence.
