Very silly post. Reactionary gender war nonsense. Everyone can and does and should sit down, that's why it's unisex. It's not that complicated.
There's better things to hitch your identity and ego to than the way your dad told you to piss.
This is a shit take literally. Why would I sit down to pee if I don’t have to? That’s more contact with the gross toilet.
You have never had to clean a toilet yourself, have you?
I have. Men with bad aim. Skill issue.
One possible fix is adding a urinal target. I'm sure you could implement a similar concept in a regular toilet.
A urinal target, sometimes known by the specific types urinal fly or urinal bee, is an image or mark placed inside a urinal to encourage users to aim in a particular place so as to avoid messes and reduce cleaning costs.
This is all personal preference. There is no issue to discuss here.
I never understood the whole "you left the toilet seat up" complaint. Never been an issue in my family but have heard "he never puts the seat down" all the time. Is it that much effort to put the toilet seat down when you need to go?
Edit: Always close the toilet seat cover, not just lowering the toilet seat. This is for both men and women.
When flushing you should absolutely close the lid. Otherwise water droplets from the toilet get flung all over the place.
But then the next person lifts it and discovers your Toblerone of a shit is still proudly sitting there.
Then you open it after flushing to check and potentially clean skidmarks?
Soft close toilet seats should be standard equipment.
Then putting the lid down is a matter of a single light push.
Sit to pee for all. Solves all problems.
I had a cat that trained me to sit down to pee.
The only time I could ever get her to purr was when when I was sat on the toilet. So, of course, I began sitting down to pee in order to maximise her purring and fusses. And it kinda stuck.
I've been to men's restroom before. I wouldn't sit on that unless extremely necessary. Even then, I'd wipe that ship clean and cover it in toilet paper first
I do wonder if they all sat whether that'd solve it, though. That is, if it'd be cleaner. Or maybe they don't need to sit to keep it clean. Idk
I’ve worked maintenance for many years and I can assure there is no difference between men’s and women’s rest rooms other than there being urinals, they’re all disgusting, we’re all disgusting, all bathrooms are just wild animal shit houses.
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 :(
if there is a lid - always down
if there is no lid - always up
it is the safest, cleanest, fairest option
If you raise it, put it back down when you're done. If you put it down, put it back up when you're done. That seems fair.
Alternatively, if there's a lid, close the lid when you're done. Then everyone is equally "inconvenienced".
In my house, the toilet seat and lid are down when not in use. Because I have a cat and she's the kind of idiot that will jump into the toilet and then track toilet water into my bed.
Biased how. Do the math. Half of us sit down to pee, all of us sit down to shit.
Biased meaning only men have to do any work, women never have to (if it's left down always)
True neutral would be last used position.
Also, as someone with male plumbing, we can also sit down to pee. So everyone can sit to pee, and half of us can't.
People of the penile persuasion can sit while peeing. It is very easy to do.
But like, if men pee with the seat up, but both men and women poop with the seat down, then statistically the seat is already down more than half of the time. Now if we enforce a policy like this, that would mean more than half of the times someone walks in and needs the seat to be down is in luck, but the rest has to do double the "work". And if someone goes in after someone who would have otherwise left the seat up, they too do double the work, so the seat changes position 4 times instead of once. I think it's much more "just" to simply change the seat whenever you need it and sometimes you will even find it in the position you need it in.
As someone with common sense and a little bit of decency: complaining about being asked to leave the toilet seat down when it benefits everybody is ridiculous
Unless you like sitting on the ceramic with no seat, I guess.
I put the lid down, don't want toilet water splashing all over the place when you flush.
Invent a new urinal and demand everyone use a shewee-like thing (for aim purposes). Now everyone can enjoy the satisfaction of peeing standing up and we can get rid of all gendered restrooms.
Now what, maga?
theres also realistic ones for trans men, but I don't wanna risk getting in trouble
