Isn't that why men typically lift the seat to pee? So that they don't spray all over the part that folks actually sit on? I'd just bring some disinfecting wipes with me and do a once over if things look suspicious. Basically, I'm with VickiSoCal on this one. I'm far, far more worried about contracting disease from the door handle or bathroom faucet handle than from the toilet seat.
Yes, I can hold her (and will), but a little added insurance never hurts. The fold=up potty seat occupies about 1 inch x 5 inches x 5 inches, so really no big issue to bring it and use it, and I would feel better about it.
As for men lifting the seat. You'd THINK they would, but you'd be surprised.
