Tell your woman that she should lift the seat up EVERY TIME, to make sure there are no spiders under it. I do, and it is for that reason. I've seen them.....and don't want to be artificially swollen. So, if it's already up, it's less work for her. Shivalry is dead, and women killed it...
It's nasty not to flush without the lid down. Uncovered all that waste gets vaporized and spread around. That's why when hotel rooms get tested for cleanliness ceilings and walls are discovered to be covered in fecal matter.
You're not off base at all. There's no difference in inconvenience at all between lift-up and put-down. Why does put-down get more weight than lift-up? Nobody wants to do either of those. How does it become male obligation? Toilet seat is very mild compared to shower lever on or off - thinking the water will come out the bottom faucet, but instead you get a surprise blast of freezing cold water from shower head above is FAR more annoying. Agree on the gender specific things, but I hate how this turns into making males no better than the terds in these toilets. There's enough convincing healthy and sanitary reasons like the ones mentioned on why its beneficial to keep a seat down, yet 2/3 the time no reasonable explanation is given. People just "trip" over it. Pissing standing up is guy only. Peeing sitting down is girl only (mostly......) Toilet seat position HAS to change for somebody.
Doesn't matter if the seat is up or down for m, but I don't know how you guys pee sitting down, the only time I do that is when I have morning wood. LOL where the F*** are we going with this thread?
I must be the only dude in the world who ALWAYS put down the lid when I'm done. I never really noticed it until someone told me in college.
Man, I just kneel on one knee and do what I got to do. Sorry to get graphic but only time I would sit on the toilet and piss is if I'm dropping a deuce.
Letting people repeatedly watch you in the bathroom to make that observation ...? Men stand-sit, Women sit-sit so thats already 3/4 toilet sitting needs. If you have kids who are still toddlers, poor little guys might not be tall enough to pee standing up yet. Then there's pets, closing the lid to not look at the poo skids inside..Okay so the whole world needs the seat down and men complicate, fine.... But please are women really thinking of any of that. More wanting to tap into this lazy & unsupportive thing... So if I watch TV with the volume at 15 but the missis wants her volume at 10, am I being lazy and inconsiderate if I dont put the volume down to 10 before I turn the TV off?
Another vote for sitting down to pee at home. a) I don't have perfect aim all the time b) Factoring splashback, it's just cleaner c) I like to sit down and read a book anyway We have some guy at work who always comes into the john and sprays the seat because he's too freaking pee-shy to use a urinal (even one that has a separator between the urinals. I want to kill the guy - even though we have a cleaning dude come in every couple of hours, it's just not cool to do that at work. I don't get the close the lid then flush thing. Great, now the lid is dirty, you sit down, and all that stuff is now on the back of your shirt, soon to be transferred to the couch. Just great.
How do you fit it in there when you have morning wood? Big toilet? Not joking, i really would like to know because that's the only time i feel like sitting down to pee, but i can't.
I try to lift the lid and seat when I pee, and lower the seat and lid when I'm through. However... Whenever this topic comes up with any woman, I always tell them the same thinG: I don't care who you are, or what the circumstances are; if you drop your drawers and sit your bare ass down on something (anything!) without looking at it first, you deserve whatever you get.
I agree, it's 50-50 both ways. I don't complain if he leaves the seat up and he doesn't complain when I leave the seat down. We have things that have more substance to disagree over. No kids or pets here.
