Men: do you ever pee sitting down?

Maybe if I was sick/hungover.

Always sitting on a bowl. Never siting on a urinal. :smiley:

What the fuck? Fuck no. The possibility never entered my mind. I finally found the limit of my open-mindedness. You guys are fucking weird.

I’ll sit down if I have to drop a deuce and sometimes I’ll piss while I’m down there but even then I typically stand and piss before dropping logs.

Really? You never felt like it was a pain in the ass to properly aim your initial over-pressurized stream, compensate your aim for the slow drop-off in pressure as your bladder empties, and then make sure you don’t dribble all over the place when finishing? These things never bothered you pissing in a bowl?

I once worked in an office with mixed staff (student workers at an institute) and one toilet.

After some time the ladies sat us men down and explained why they would not put up with us peeing standing up anymore: even if you take good care there is bound to be a minute amount of very fine spray that’s going to end up all over the place.

The resulting habit has stayed with me.

That seems less than persuasive, unless the men were pissing with the seat down and/or the women were sitting with the seat up

I am female: both my ex-husband and current husband pee sitting down.
(Their choice! I did not ask them to…)
The bathroom smells SO much nicer than when I lived with stand-up guys!

Yeah, they’ve bothered me occasionally. I’ve even said that if I ever get rich, I’m installing a urinal in my house. But they haven’t bothered me enough to sit down to pee. Good god. I would’ve thought less than 1% of guys do this - and in those cases it would be some weird S&M thing - but here we are with half the SDMB admitting to it. I always knew you guys were weirder than me.

Edit: Not half. Two thirds!

I did so this morning.

Never ever, and like Cisco, think it’s totally bizarre that any man would sit to pee.

It’s not just the seat that the fine spray lands on but much farther afield - even if the main jet lands in the center of the bowl. If you ever have occassion to pee with the sun in front of you you’ll see that easily. Essentially you give the floor and the lower part of the wall a fine coating of piss.

Or sometimes in certain fixtures with shorts on.

I usually sit down. My bathroom has a carpet.

very rarely, and only due to physical incapacitation(or poo failure, as mentioned elsewhere). Too drunk to stand? Time to sit. And one time when i was on crutches i sat.

Nope, it never, ever bothered me. I consider standing to pee a superpower. I wish I could stand and poop. Hell, I wish I could run while pissing/pooping. I want a huge yard someday so I can lie in the grass and pee like one of those old lawn toys you attach to the water hose. Then, in the winter, I want to make pee pictures in the snow like a giant Etch-a-Sketch. My dream is to live to be old enough to be one of those senile old men who pee in public against a wall and everybody gives them a pass because they’re old. If a dog pees on me, I want to give that little bastard a taste of his own medicine…while wearing a tuxedo and chasing him down the red carpet of a movie premiere.

I have never been too drunk to stand up to pee.

And I’ve been so drunk I’ve puked.
I’ve been so drunk I’ve passed out.
I’ve been so drunk I’ve passed out and puked in my sleep.
I’ve been so drunk I’ve danced.
I’ve been so drunk I told my mom that my wife likes anal sex (not true, incidentally.)
I’ve been so drunk I tried to open a bottle with the Jedi mind trick, in all earnesty.
I’ve been so drunk I’ve howled along with Baba O’Reilly, and felt at that moment like it was the greatest song of all time.

But I’ve always stood up to piss.

Only in my 1750s vestments.

Change my vote from “rarely” to “never”. :rolleyes:

I’m 6’1". If I’m at someone’s home (mine or someone else’s), I sit down specifically to avoid splashing. If I’m in a public restroom, I use the urinal, since it’s more sanitary and the risk of splatter is quite a bit less.

I voted “usually” since I figure I pee at home significantly more often than I do in a public place.
