Why does a dog lick it’s penis? Because it can!
Why do I pee standing up
Because I can!
OR… you could jus tnot lift the second seat… I mean it doesn’t take incredible aim to hit that hole either, then there is no talking and you still get to stand. Granted if somebody put that thing in my house it would get thrown under a moving bus pretty damn quickly.

Hehehe, it’s not about aggravating women, there, KevTrice. Hell, I close the lid after I’m done. But why be a sitzpinkler when you don’t have to be? I mean, c’mon dude!
The way i see it, if they’re going to warn me everytime I lift the seat, I guess i’m going to stop lifting the seat.
i might be way out of line here, but why can a man stand when he pees freely? Because he can. So why not a woman? Because hands free she’ll piss all over herself!
Who’s sloppy now?! Who needs to sit? rofl, even money shots use the shortest distance between the source and the target. If the gun is the extension of the penis, in urinalysis, then a woman’s vagina is a riot-shotgun. Everybody scatters!
This makes good conversation for finding the right woman. lol
Let’s compare the 2 options… say, at a movie theatre. You’re in the middle of a movie and you really have to pee. You rush to the bathroom. Let’s examine the two options.
Option 1: standing
Pull down zipper, pull out penis, pee, put penis back in pants, pull up zipper. Rush back to movie, ask your friend to fill you in on the scene you missed.
Option 2: sitting
Get paper to cover the toilet seat, pull down pants, pull down underwear, watch pants and underwear make contact with sticky public bathroom floor, sit on toilet and hope your ass is only making contact with the sanitary paper, carefully make sure penis does not touch disgusting public toilet, hope none of your own piss splashes back on yourself, pee, get pissed off that some of your own piss DID splash up on yourself, forget to be careful and penis touches dirty public toilet, realize that some other jerk peed on the toilet seat and the pee has soaked through the sanitary paper and is now a moist residue on your butt, feel disgusted, pull up underwear and pants from floor, and go back in your movie, realize you missed 10 minutes of it, oh and btw you now have genital herpes.
Yeah… I’ll stick with standing up. Maybe women should learn to pee standing up. They do manufacture a funnel that allows women to pee standing up. Other women have learned to control their urine stream.

Standing just feels better, more or a free flow. If you clean you bathroom regularly, there is no reason whatsoever to succumb to the pressure of sitting down…
We are actually discussing this? Really?
Ok, first I don?t eat soy, so I stand. Second, have you seen the lines to the women?s bathroom? There is a reason their line is longer then the men?s room line.
Sitting speed:
Zip
Drop
Sit
Piss
Stand
Pull-up
Zip
Standing speed:
Zip
Flip
Drip
Flip
Zip
People have been working on a female urinal to make things ?equal?. To me it looks like they were not successful, so decided to handicap us in the name of equality.
If my wife were to put one on our toilet, it would be broken the next day.

How about at home, where most of us do the majority of our urination? You have to pee, but not particularly badly; at a convenient time, you walk in a leisurely fashion over to the bathroom, where there is a toilet. You can either sit down on the toilet, or you can stand up.
So why sit down rather than stand up?
-
If you sit down, it is easier to urinate. This can be readily confirmed with your doctor; when a man’s prostate is acting up, he will often have difficulty urinating in a standing position but not while seated.
-
When you begin urinating, you may discover that you could actually defecate as well. If you are already sitting, this is perfectly fine and you can just let things happen. If you are standing, you need to decide whether to hold it in, or stop peeing so you can turn around and sit down.
-
Since you are pissing at a forward angle, the urine stream will probably hit the porcelain, not the water. This means that any company you happen to have in your house will not hear you urinating, which might embarrass or distress them. You will also be able to hear more of what is going on outside the bathroom, such as those left-field conversations your SO invariably wants to start at the most inopportune time.
-
Since you are sitting on the seat, it is physically impossible to piss on it. It is extremely unlikely that you will be able to piss anywhere except in the toilet bowl without actually trying, regardless of how spastic and weird your penis wants to be with the stream.
-
When you are finished, the seat will already be down, and you will not need to put it down.
-
Since you lowered your trousers, you probably didn’t need to touch your pubic area. If you do not touch this area, you do not get any coliform bacteria on your hands, and hence you do not need to wash them.
That last one is a real killer. So far, the only real argument for standing up is speed – but in my experience, dropping and raising your trousers takes a lot less time than washing and drying your hands. Sitting down is simply smarter. There’s a lot to be said for primal drives, but that’s no reason not to evolve.
Am I the only one that finds #6 above very disturbing?

If my prostate ever acts up, I’ll sit to pee. No need to “treat the illness” before it occurs. Some ppl need tubes to make it easier to urinate; I’m not about to start doing that one either.
-
I urinate probably 8 times a day. I defecate once a day. I would rather be inconvenienced 1 out of 8 times a day, rather than 8 out of 8 times.
-
Noise from the water… distressing people? WTF do people think I’m doing in the bathroom?
-
If you complete miss the toilet bowl, then by all means please sit down. I don’t, so I’ll stand. Don’t force me to sit. Also, being so close to the procelain means some inevitable splashing. Do you really want to be so close to the splash?
-
The seat is almost never down in an all male household. If a woman wants the seat down, then she can reach forward with her arm and put it down. I know it is so much trouble for a woman to move her arm, but I think she’ll live.

My father once passed this pearl of wisdom to me: if you wash your hands before you urinate, you’re doing it for yourself; if you wash your hands after you urinate, you’re doing it for other people.
Honestly, if you’re going to take off your underwear, your hands are probably going to brush up against your ass. Please wash your hands after touching your ass! Think of the children!! Besides, by your logic, women would almost never have to wash their hands after using the bathroom. I would not want a chef recalling this same logic to me as he prepares my food. Besides… no one says you have to wash your hands. I’m sure plenty of men don’t.
This has nothing to do with primal drive. It has to do with convenience and preference. I prefer to pee standing up and I find it to be more convenient. Moving my zipper is easier than unbuckling my belt, undoing a button, moving my zipper, and pulling down my pants.

i dunno about #1, saying it’s easier to pee sitting than standing. Take for instance this morning’s poo. I pinch a loaf, drop off the kids, and wash the car (steps of a regular dump for me). Okay sensations are gone, proper grooming before pulling up da trousers. STand up and whoosh! there still be piss…not all has cometh out. Ahhh…gotta change mi pants.
LOL!!!
CDarklock, do you realize that you just wrote an entire essay on the merits of sitting down to pee? Who does that? You are truly a character, dude, my hat’s off to you. And please don’t think that I’m being sarcastic or a smart-ass this time – I’m being striaght up right now. If you lived in Tallahassee, I’d buy you a beer. Which you would eventually piss out while sitting, no doubt.
