A toilet seat comprising:
- an upper surface, a lower surface, a first lateral side, a second lateral side and a rear lateral side between the first lateral side and the second lateral side;
- a toilet seat opening defined between the first lateral side, the second lateral side, and the rear lateral side;
- a convex upward extending surface from the rear lateral side of the upper surface;
- and
- a concave curved surface positioned on the rear lateral side of the upper surface adjacent the convex upward extending surface,
- wherein the upper surface, lower surface, first lateral side, second lateral side, rear lateral side and toilet seat opening of the toilet seat define a curved outer edge from a top view, and a curved inner edge from the top view,
- wherein the upper surface of the rear lateral side curves downward from the outer edge of the rear lateral side from a side view into the convex surface, and then curves upward into the concave curved surface.
