    Imposing urination methods by the state? The glories of "Progressiveness" knows no bounds. And this just proves that Socialists are full of ****.

    A Swedish political party is taking a stand against upright urination.

    At a county council meeting Monday, the Left Party, or Vänsterpartiet, tabled a motion that would require office washrooms to be genderless with a sit-down-only requirement, reported the news agency Tidningarnas Telegrambyrå.

    For men who might refuse to comply, party representatives suggested a separate set of toilets clearly labeled for stand-up urination only.

    Vänsterpartiet, known as a socialist and feminist organization, believes seated urination is healthier for men and more hygienic for both sexes.

    Party speakers cited medical research they said shows men empty their bladders more efficiently while seated. Improved bladder evacuation reduces the risk for prostate problems, according to the party. It also helps men who sit rather than stand achieve a longer and healthier sex life, it said.

    Viggo Hansen, a substitute council member who authored the motion, told Sveriges Television that that the move does not represent an attempt to meddle in the bathroom habits of citizens.

    "That's not what we're doing. We want to give men the option of going into a clean toilet," he said.

    You don't know anything about international politics if you're quoting the Left Party of Sweden as representative of anything.

    Sweden's a multi-party parliamentary system with like ten different parties represented, out of a parliament of 349, the Left Party has 19 MPs.

    What you pulled is like quoting the Golden Dawn as the representatives of Western democracy.

    (and this motion actually EXPANDS choices, but don't let that screw around with your forum "FREEDOMS"-defending. or is it against your religious beliefs that men and women can't potty together? Please tell me that is the case.)

    Men, either stand up for your rights or join the sit-in. Either way, we must take a position.:grin:
