Abstract: A toilet seat lifting aid includes a circular lifting element which projects outwardly in a horizontal direction laterally away from the seat so that the seat can be raised or lowered without directly touching the same. The lifting element is connected to a support which, in turn, carries a quantity of pressure-sensitive adhesive for quick installation of the lifting element to a peripheral, bottom side portion of the seat. In preferred forms, the lifting element has a smoothly rounded outer edge and is pivotally interconnected with the support for rotation relative to the seat when accidentally brushed against by the user's legs in order to avoid abrasion of the skin.
