Sit Down!!!! (mens toilet habits)

I hate to have guest at home who leaves a disgusting amount of yellow splash all around the toilet, on the wall and on the floor!

Can a man just learn to sit and not stand to pee like a donkey?

Re: Sit Down!!!!

Men are biologically designed not to sit when peeing. Women are. There was a design for men's toilet seats once, but it was too expensive to manufacture / there was no demand, so remains a design abstract.

Not paying attention though is unforgiveable.

Re: Sit Down!!!! (mens toilet habits)

You could stick a picture of George Bush, Osama BL, Simon Cowell etc.. on the inside of the toilet bowl..... men like to have something to aim at.

I really need to see those pics -- can you save them to your computer and re-post them please?

(Not that I actually need some sort of assistance, of course ...)

Re: Sit Down!!!! (mens toilet habits)

Men do not sit down to pee, women sit down to pee. I cannot see this changing except when we eventually evolve beyond a corporeal state, millions of years in the future.

Believe it or not, most men don't pee everywhere unless generally horribly drunk, there is no light on, or they are a builder.

Another bugbear with me is when guests come and decide they need to do a number two. Why the hell do they have to use the toilet brush to aid the passage of the solids down the toilet??

I've had to replace SEVEN brushes since I came here because of the unsuitable (and decidedly sticky) bristle state of the brush after it's impromptu use as a poo poker.

For God's sake!!!

Re: Sit Down!!!! (mens toilet habits)

Hubby is going to hate me if he finds out I shared this but... he sits down. I think my sis-in-law says my brother does also (he didn't always ) but as he's in the navy and out to sea a lot, I imagine it has become a habit begun initially to keep from making a mess while under way.

I think the reason for hubby's habit though is that the bathroom in the apartment where he grew up was a nightmare... I don't even think I can give it justice with a description BUT it was designed very poorly - the drain was at the very front instead of back and there wasn't a bowl, more of a ledge that wasn't very far down even. With the design, I imagine anyone taller than the average 8yo would have problems with splash even more than aim.

I am just curious as to the configuration of your bathroom, that would cause one to **** on the floor and walls.....? That is digusting! Although, I did have a foreign exchange student, won't mention the country, that would not lift the toilet seat and pissed all over it and the floor. I had to correct him quickly on that one...

Re: Sit Down!!!! (mens toilet habits)

I used to stand up and pee but lady of the house forced me to sit down. My snake is so long that it touches the dirty toilet water. Now I just coil my private part before sitting down Time consuming but what can I do?

For this very reason, I usually use one of my hosts's toothbrushes for that job; they're usually easy to locate, hanging from little hooks above the basin.

I've found most continental European men sit to pee.

You've just described a shelf toilet, very typical in Germany.
