I don't take photos in the bathroom, but this is the best idea I can come up with for why some people do it. I think it's just usually where the biggest mirror (and maybe the best lighting) is for a good number of people. Of course, yes, there are better places to take photos and people should look before taking photos anywhere. You see it all the time - the toilet seat lid is up, the counter is messy, the room is messy, personal items are noticeable, etc...
Eh I actually don't have any mirror in my bedroom lol. There's only four mirrors in the entire house, one in my housemate's bedroom, in both the bathrooms and my walk in wardrobe. But I never fancied taking pictures with the mirror -.- I'd rather not take any at all.
u The lighting in my washroom is much better and more conducive to the shitty cameras on most phones (most don't have a flash). So I would take one in there as well. You'd never know it was the washroom though since the mirror is right in front of the door, lol.
Se7en reasons why people takes selfies in the bathroom :-
☻Not everyone is rich like you :/
☻Far better lightning ✨
☻It is more personal place. No disturbance.🙅
☻Full length mirror. 🙆
☻We want to show the Apple logo, we need mirror for that. 🍎
☻Kill the boredom. Some people don't go there to take selfies. It is Twist of Fate.💩
☻Easy access to water and shit to clean the face. 💧 (shit = random things. Not the ones in background) :P
On the list of reasons not to do it, many of the mirrors are filthy. Makes everything look bad.
And many people use public restrooms to take their selfies. Lots of distracting things in many of them, including other people often. Just waiting for some guy to do that and have the guys at the urinals in the picture.
By the way, love your avatar. You have such beautiful big eyes and such a cute nose. lol

I actually don't have a mirror in my bedroom. I have a master suite bathroom attached to my room, and there is a huge mirror in there. But I don't usually take selfies. If I do, it's in my bedroom or outside somewhere. But yeah... I feel you on some of the bathroom selfies and the toilets ha.
it's probably where their only and/or biggest mirror is
i remember when i was in the dorms my second year, i was the only person on my floor with a full-length mirror and sometimes people would knock just to check themselves out in it
i agree, people should find a better place for a photo or at least take the picture from a different lens angle
My ex-girlfriend took a picture of herself in the bathroom and it was stupid! It was her flashing herself over the sink in front of the mirror. I could only see that and the shower curtain. Some people don't have half a damn brain in their head to not do stupid things like that!
Well people actually take selfies on other places than the bathroom
I have seen more car and work selfies than bathroom selfies. I think some people who take them in the bathroom do it because they get better lighting and bathrooms usually have a white background so they can show the colors on their outfits better
I don't have a mirror in my bedroom. I don't want to use the bathroom one because it's awkward.. Which is why all my pictures end up all awkward and up close. 😔
My step brother always used my bathroom. He said it had good lighting. Plus there was a double door closet, so nobody could tell it was a bathroom.. lol
I actually don't have a mirror in my bedroom.. The only mirrors in my house are in the bathrooms. I guess whenever I enter the bathroom and gaze at the beauty and majesty that is my face, I just have to pull out my phone and snap a few pics despite of the fact that bathrooms are gross.
"Don't they have a mirror in their bedroom"
Actually I don't lol
The only mirror I have in the entire house is in the washroom.
I think I saw one where there was a surprise in the toilet 🙊😅 A lot of people don't have a full length mirror in their bedroom.
Mm I don't have a long mirror in my bedroom. Not after seeing red eyes in the dressing mirror in my old house, I've never wanted to buy a mirror for my bedroom ever again.
Plus my bathroom is pretty neat and tidy, and it's no where near my toilet. I have more personal things in my bedroom then in my toilet I rather not let the whole world to see on here.
That surprises me a lot too - Most peoples' best mirrors are in their bedroom - As for toilet seat up or down, different people - If it was me I would spend 5 minutes checking everything in background was neat and tidy.
Yeah I'm with you on the toilet thing, pout and pose all you like girlies, that open toilet just makes you look like a hooker killing time while she waits for a client.
ya know, there's something about a bathroom that makes a human want to whip out a camera and take a picture of themselves.
I think they need the mirror :D
Or maybe it's the only room in the house that isn't cluttered hahaha 8)
I don't know why people take selfies on the first place...
Maybe they're just so proud of their bathrooms?
Lol I have no idea.. but aye, #bathroompride2015
1 word describing every word in your question: trend
It doesn't bother me. Sometimes I do it too, just depends where I am getting myself ready.
Actually I don't have a mirror in my room -__-
I use the reversed mirror on my phone
haha oh come on it's not that bad haha, just kidding but seriously I don't get it either?
No, I don't have a mirror in my bedroom and the one in the bathroom is really big. but I use the front camera so it doesn't really matter if there's a mirror or not.
