It’s called toilet plume.
A toilet plume is the invisible to the naked eye, cloud-like dispersal of raw, infectious sewage particles as a result of flushing a toilet. Flush particles rapidly rise out of the bowl and several feet into the air after flushing. Aerosolized droplets can remain suspended in the air for tens of minutes between users, posing an inhalation risk. These invisible particles go on to coat and spread onto surfaces like floors and counters or objects like hand towels, bathmats, or even toothbrushes.



But if you close the lid, all the particles concentrate on it. Then when raise it back up and sit down, there’s a chance you’ll pick it all up with your back.
So the question becomes, do you want shit more evenly spread out in the air or do you want concentrated shit on your back?
You’re… leaning back against the seat?
No you guys are pooping in the wrong direction
You presume you don’t?
