Leave the seat down so when you flush you won’t inhale your poop and pee.
Cmon it’s not hard.
Edit: and lid.
You mean the lid infested of the seat?
I think just being an organism with an anus leads to higher levels of poop exposure than whatever minuscule amount of particulate matter that manages to aerosolize from an unlided flush
Also, no way, leave the seat as is, it is the responsibility of every user to adjust the seat to their current need.
Yes, but I already have all the diseases that I have. I don’t need to add all the diseases everyone else has too, or vice versa.
If this was a male-only bathroom I’d still totally agree with the content of the sign.
If you want to pee standing, use the urinal. I, as a man, don’t enjoy sitting in some other person’s pee either.
If men have to put down women have to lift up. Morality is when the same logic is applied to the other side. Otherwise your being sexist and prejudice.
Yes because men can only shit while standing. Are you reading your own bullshit?
Nah but you are if we shit the seat is down. Think before you speak.
So why should women put the seat up if they cant know if youre gonna shit or piss. Why dont you try that thinking before speaking thing yourself for once?
You don’t? That’s a moronic take. We lift we drop we don’t bitch about it. Only a petty fuck would make the seat being pre-prepared for thier specifications an issue. Still haven’t used your brain eh.
I can make it even simpler for you, because you dont seem to get basic logic.
Case 1: Woman uses the bathroom -> the seat is down -> everyone can use it as is. Case 2: Man pisses while standing -> the seat is up -> woman needs to lower it 100%, man only when sitting down next time.
Also thats not even the issue. A toilet seat if fucking filthy. Forcing someone else to touch it just because you are too lazy to lower it yourself after using it for yourself is as selfish as it gets.
I dont think this will get through to you but maybe you can stop and think about it for 10s. Why make life hard fpr other people for your own benefit? Maybe thats your egotistic worldview and you see yourself as an alpha or whatever bs, but if not your take doesnt make any sense.
Dum dum what do you think men do when we lift the toilet seat? Stop thinking about “ew I have to touch the toilet” and just stop policing ppl shitting. Fucking repedocan mindset rules for thee not for me. But you can’t imagine a world where you have to do what others do.
Maybe you like touching toilet seats. Some people dont and I dont see why I should force them to.
Also do you even read what youre writing? “Have to do what others do” equals “have to do something an other person forces me to because of their fucking lazy ass” in your mind? How entitled can you get. Please stop spreading conservative bullshit your manly man grandpa taught you.
This assumes that men ever lift the seat. I’d prefer it be left up so that there is at least a chance I can sit on a dry, piss-free seat. Lowering a seat is preferable to the alternative.
I only piss in sinks and showers. It’s the gentlemanly thing to do.
The gentlemanly thing would be to keep it in your pants, like I do.
you piss in your pants?
that’s gotta get gross quickly
Because it’s so much better to just leave the piss lying about elsewhere? Just pull on your big boy panties and piss yourself. It’s fine.
ok ok shit… being responsible for my mess is the upright thing to do. time for depends.
and drawers
Toilet seats are fully operational by anyone, (it’s true I checked). How about instead of trying to police everyone you just put it up or down yourself and stfu?
Seeing this sign would ensure I go out of my way to leave it up.
Manchild take
I’m a gentleman and so I lowered the seat as my hosts requested. But I also took a picture because it’s funny and weirdly presumptuous.
Thats a spicy take. You know the seat being down is more than convenience, right? It’s extremely unhygienic to flush an open toilet let alone the dangers of small children falling in. I recognize a public space is less likely to have a child small enough and unattended to worry significantly about.
We live in a society and all that. Personal responsibility only works if you err on the side of caution. If there is a default setting to a toilet seat and cover it would be down and closed. Otherwise, why put one on at all.
The seat is not what closes a toilet. That’s the lid and it’s not even mentioned on the sign.
up. down makes me uncomfortable. Schrodinger’s toilet seat.
Be careful what you wish for.
Pooping is what unites us
Peeing while seated unites us
It seems like at least half of men can’t aim anyway, so it’s better to just sit down.
Especially the ones who don’t have to clean the bathroom
Even when aim is there, splashing occurs. It really shows that some men never had to clean their own bathrooms.
Also fuck you if you piss standing up in a stall when there’s pissoirs outside.
You want privacy for your little weenie, sit your ass down and scroll on your phone like normal people do.
Pooping with the seat up unites us
Ever tried pooping while standing? All I’m saying is don’t knock it if you haven’t tried it.
Pooping in the shower unites us
While standing?
The life aquatic leads to many powers trousered society would deem unnatural
Not from a janitor
The squat toilet is for pooping what the urinal is for wee. If you have really baggy trousers and are freeballing you don’t even need to undo your belt.
This reminds me of the time I was a kid and a houseguest was using our toilet like this with the door opened and I barfed when I saw him doing a shit with his shoes on our toilet seat
Cool though
I’m a woman and will leave the seat up at work (not at home)
We have unisex toilets and truck drivers use them - they regularly wee all over the toilet seats if left down :(
we just leave it down at home. we talked about it one day and everyone with male excretory parts just wants to get off their feet. only time the seat lifts is for cleaning.
I’ve thought of this so many times. I’m fact, I’ve thought about a spring-loaded seat hinge that raises the seat unless there’s a person upon it. If the seat is always up, it is much less likely to be urinated upon. It takes the work completely out of the hands of the user.
if there is a lid - always down
if there is no lid - always up
it is the safest, cleanest, fairest option
My brother used to say, if i have to lift it up why shouldn’t my wife have to put it down?
I see his point but, i close the lid to flush so i don’t have to brush my teeth with a pissy shit particle covered toothbrush.
I dunno if you’d want to know (or maybe you know, already) but it only helps some with bacteria, not viruses: https://www.everydayhealth.com/health-home/should-you-flush-with-the-toilet-seat-up-or-down.
Is peeing standing up something I’m just too intersex to understand? Like even before bottom surgery it was just more easy and convenient to sit down for it
You’re not using the equipment to its full potential!
How is having to pull your pants and underwear down and sit down easier and more convenient than just unzipping your fly and peeing standing up?
I mean if you’re at a urinal that’s one thing but if you’re going into a stall you’re already wasting time might as well sit down and take a break, maybe take a smoke while you’re at it
If you feel like sitting down, that makes sense, but it’s not easier and more convenient.
People of the penile persuasion can sit while peeing. It is very easy to do.
not on a public toilet
Just cause it’s easy doesn’t mean you should.
Also, it’s not easier than standing.
I find sitting easier than standing. It requires less attention (atleast if you have standards of the waste actually being in the pot).
do you like, have severe knee pain or something? that’s the only way i can see it being more difficult to sit down.
Even when sitting down we have to aim the nozzle manually, so it’s just sitting down for a moment then getting up, which normally is more work than standing there for a moment.
And (at least for me), it is more comfortable peeing standing up (albeit that might be because of a lifetime of doing it like that).
Another compromise is to pee in the shower. or better yet, on there indoor plants, this way we don’t need to water them.
Remember, there’s a difference between peeing in the shower and peeing into the shower.
SHOWER, But you barely know her
I know you’re joking, but pee has to be diluted 1:10 with water if you want to give it to your houseplants as fertilizer. Otherwise you will burn them
what if I developed a drinking problem and my pee becomes naturally diluted?

I don’t like it when my thing touchs the inside of the toilet its disgusting and other xommentters took the time to explain the simple reasons for you
Just the need of undoing your pants/belt already makes it easier to stand up.
And some seats have that front opening, which helps, otherwise there’s often not much room to pee sitting down.
Then there’s also some people who prefer to cover the seat with toilet paper before sitting down.
It’s easier to stand up.
Magic trick: With a skirt/kilt you don’t need to undo the belt!
Also isn’t the intersection of needing to undo ones belt and needing the front opening rather small?
And some seats have that front opening, which helps, otherwise there’s often not much room to pee sitting down.
Just leave the lid up and sit on the actual bowl itself
I’ll let you try that one
not with morning wood
how the fuck do you piss with wood anyways? just wait 5 minutes
Use the force
Proceeds to pee like the guy in Upload
i was really impressed by the window trick
I like that some developer in that series went out of their way to ensure they could do not wrong when peeing. Out the window… 100% no splash
Yes, even with morning wood. Just lean a bit forward. It’s not that hard.
if it wasn’t that hard there wouldn’t be a problem to begin with
Well you and me know that but his thing is just so enormous we can not comprehend.
(aka excuses)
Not sure if you have a short dick or just very soft boners, but that’s a absolutely not possible for many men.
Maybe it’s US toilets. It’s statistically average and I’ve rarely had any issues. Still better than the spray while standing up.
WHY ARE SO FEW US TOILETS LONG BOYS
But pp touch toilet bowl = bad
That’s why I’m saying go lean forward. Come on guys, it’s not that difficult…
This is too absurd to even critique
Why do you have morning wood at a public toilet
If we could simply choose when we got erections, high school would have been much less awkward
You or your classmates must have been quite bad at hiding them. I never noticed anyone having an erection in school and I never felt sexually attracted to anyone there either.
I cannot believe my morning erections are being judged by trash girlfriend.
I am literally trash girlfriend and Ive never had morning wood at a public toilet
I feel like if I judge you its gotta be a good reason at that point
One day you will go to a public toilet to realize you have morning wood, then you will understand the struggle.
Waking up in a public toilet does sound fun but since Ive taken estrogen I dont ger morning wood often
so you saying the real solution for peeing with morning wood is estrogen?
i would transition but there’s no ikea near me for the mandatory Blahaj.
brother if you got wood how tf are you peeing sitting down. That shit pointing up
If it’s pointing up, how the fuck you hit the bowl standing up?
You step back real far and lean forward, stabilize with your hand on the tank. It might take a lil practice but it’s light years better than trying to bend it down
You can lean forward even better starting from a sitting position, chest down, hips up with slight rotation.
Leaning and hoping your hand doesn’t go through the drywall. Luckily for me by the time I gained weight I didn’t have the morning issues all the time.

Why though.
Because splashback.
- Cleaner for your penis: sitting down eliminates the last drops remaining that are common when standing up
- Cleaner for the bathroom: zero risk foreskin messing up your aim and having pee hit areas that don’t get washed by the flush
- Better urine elimination for men that have prostate issues or lower urinary tract symptoms. I don’t, but it’s a factor
- More chill to sit down and check your phone while in the bathroom
Cleaner for your penis: sitting down eliminates the last drops remaining that are common when standing up
only if you do the gooch scooch
Wait, are you dragging your schlong against the inside of the toilet so it gets in contact with the water that runs down it?
No, I’m talking about where the urine hits the toilet. If it hits a part that doesn’t get washed by the flush, the urine dries out there and smells.
My dignity refuses to piss sitting down !
It comes with the risk of contamination or infection if you’re well endowed.
I’m not well endowed, at best I’m average… at best. But while I don’t touch the water, I hit the front of the bowl. It’s disgusting to feel the cold porcelain.
scoot back
do such people also have to poop while standing?
No they just sling it round their neck for that.
Analyze the form factor of toilet. Is it one of those round ones that’s sized for potty-training a child? Emergencies only. The bowl deep enough and water low enough? Push dick down with one hand, hope Poseidon doesn’t kiss your willy. Stand up far to wipe, don’t sit down too fast. Try not to piss under the seat.
Prefer to avoid public restrooms for shits, stand up to pee.
i’m a bit confused on the geometry here. how can one risk both dipping ones dick in the drink, and peeing under the seat?
The seat is the problem not the water. You have to make a choice with some variety of toilets, touch the seat or get splashed. Obviously try to stay far enough away from both, but the point is, standing up is far easier than playing this game.
This issue always baffles me.
The amazing thing about owning a penis is that I can still pee sitting down and there’s never any drama. Have to poop? Don’t even have to move! Have to fart? Go for it! Not farting in your underwear makes them smell fresher for longer, anyway.

Bro wtf? I know that was a casual one liner… but it leaves sooo many unanswered questions!

I once jokingly mentioned to my wife that leaving the seat up is just as convenient for me as leaving it down is for her. To which she pointed out that, of the four different permutations of toilet use between us, 3/4 require the seat to be down, so all in all, it makes sense to leave the seat down.
And dammit, I had to marry a logical autistic, didn’t I?
So now I always (try to remember to) leave the seat down.
I mean, it’ll be less than 3/4 if you always stand to pee, because people pee more often than they poop (of they hydrate sufficiently and there’s no health issue). But it’ll still definitely be over half, so the result is the same.
At home both of those are invalid. You close the lid before you flush so you don’t spread particles everywhere (among many other benefits)
Everyone opens the lid/seat to the desired level. Everyone does their business. Everyone closes the lid. Everyone flushes and washes their hands.
True gender equality!
This is the correct answer
autistic women are the best
I tend to sit down to pee most times (at home), so that ratio is even higher for us…
That’s just basic math. +Sit the fuck down when pissing at home. Who is paying you to stand while taking a piss when you could sit down?
