I’m a sitting male weeer. I’ve never understood why men must stand to wee.
Surely it’s easier, comfier, and requires less aiming to sit with your dangly bits virtually ‘in’ the toilet to let them (or it) to discharge.
Why do I seem to have been led to believe that it’s more manly to stand and aim your urine at an oval?
It just generates an image that is just a little too femme, twee, effete, fragile, neurotic, weak, and maybe even lazy if you know what I mean. It would be hard to articulate a reasonable argument that isn’t covered by one of these adjectives and none of those things are good in this context. Being able to pee standing up is supposed to be a benefit of being a man. Females are supposed to be the ones that need elaborate modern devices to support basic bodily functions like a dialysis patient. The motives for abandoning that ability are always going to be called into question.
I could punch someone in the face because ‘we CAN’ but that wouldn’t do me any favours. Neither does peeing standing up.
(besides. My foreskin tends to make matters worse)
Well, given the choice between sitting on a toilet or not sitting on it, I’ll usually choose not to sit. Public toilets are icky, and while at least with my home toilet I know it’s mostly just me using it, I’d still rather not touch it.
I’m going to let you in on a huge secret amongst women that are attracted to men - we find the sound of your urine pouring forth in a thick ropy stream to be disgusting and unattractive. When ya’ll sit down to pee, it is quiet and we are not repulsed. Likewise, we are afraid to get our feet anywhere near your toilet because we know we’re stepping on your overspray, Mr.-I-Stand-Because-I-Can. Sure, it *looks * (from 3 feet up) like all the stream’s going in the basin, but I assure you from many years of housecleaning that it sure isn’t. It’s getting on the wall, in the paint. It’s working its way into the grout between your tiles, where it’ll never come out.
If you think the toilet is too dirty to sit on, line it with toilet paper before sitting down. Or, you could go pee in an alley, where dirty animals belong.
Nawth Chucka, whose BF’s only *one * foot from the toilet when he stands… :eek:
Truer words were never spoken!
Can I just add here that you men who think you don’t have to wipe your weiner after you pee 'cause you shook **every ** drop off - no you didn’t and yes you do. It’s gross for you to come back to bed, etc with a dark spot on the front of your boxers.
Yeh, I’m a priss who doesn’t care to experience the urine of others.
I once dated a guy who peed sitting down, because he lived alone and didn’t like cleaning the toilet. At the time, I thought it a little odd.
Now that I have a husband and three sons, I wish they would all sit on the potty to pee, so I could spend less of my life cleaning up around the toilet. (Yes, I’m potty-training one now, hence the toddler language.)
My MIL had a brown male Standard Poodle until a few months ago when he passed away. You have never met a more flaming mammal in your entire life. He swished when he walked, he presented his paw with a limp wrist, and of course he squatted when he peed. The whole effect just didn’t work well and I would advise against taking style cues from him.
I am utterly baffled, as to how you could find it easier to sit down. By standing, I don’t have to mess around with undoing/pulling up clothing beyond a quick down/up of the zipper. Nor do I have to change position: I’m on my feet when I walk into the restroom and am still standing when I’m ready to leave. I can be in and out in 30 seconds.
And do you really find it comfy, exposing your nether regions to, first the open air, then the cold (or wet :eek: ) toilet seat?
And although this has never happened to me, aiming is necessary whether you’re sitting, standing, or doing a handstand.
Well, bordering on the realm of TMI, I only get about half drained when I sit. It’s not uncommon to finish what I sat down for, stand, turn around, and finish peeing.
I don’t like sitting to pee because my junk hangs down perilously close to the water and typically gets pressed up against the interior rim of the bowl. Now, I’m not that finicky about sitting on public toilets but pressing my package up against the inside of the bowl crosses a line.
I’ll sit down only when I’m hoping for a nice long read or play a good long level on my PSP.
I’m sure most males have, at least once, dipped them. It’s not very pleasant.
I will eventually get a urinal for myself. There’s nothing like hitting the urinal wall just right so that there’s no spotting. It’s all physics. Ask the stream to make too sharp a turn and it will buck on you but hit near the rim where it has to take a 15 degree turn and it’ll spiral in nicely. You have to watch for that when you buy one. Some urinals just have the worst shape possible and I can’t find anyway to get the stream to not splatter.
