To ask why men have to wee standing up?

[AngeloMysterioso]

Why? Just why?

Fair enough if all they have is a urinal or a tree at their disposal, but if they’re in a bathroom with a toilet, why do they have to stand up?

My DS1 was doing absolutely fine sitting on his little clip in loo seat thing and just pointing his willy down, until my FIL in all his wisdom decided to teach him the joys of a stand up wee, and now I am constantly having to clean up puddles of piss on the floor from when he misses.

Why????????

I was getting frequent UTIs, after various tests including a bladder cam they confirmed my bladder wasn’t emptying properly due to sit down wees.

Regardless of how good the aim is, it’s still disgustingly unhygienic-

Collisions of urine droplets in the falling stream as well as the splash from striking the water in the toilet from a great height, could send your pee to all corners of your bathroom. Unless your toothbrush is at least three metres away from the toilet, it is likely to be in range. If there has recently been faeces in the toilet, this splashback could be sending pee droplets harbouring colonies of harmful E. coli bacteria across much of your bathroom.

DH always sits for a wee. I went into the toilets at a cinema earlier today and it was all cubicles with no men/women signs. All of the seats were covered in piss. It's disgusting.

I'm astonished at all the posters who seem to spend a lot of time cleaning up wee that isn't theirs. Unless someone is very young, very old, or very ill, there's absolutely no reason they shouldn't clean up their own mess, and if they lived in my house they would be called into the loo to clean up after themselves every single time I found wee on the seat or the floor. Cleaning up after them is not helping them in any way.

It is a thing. I'm from Germany and men do indeed generally sit down to pee and as a PP has said there are plenty of signs up reminding people that that is what's expected. Very common in my experience.

You dont say...

They probably don't intentionally wipe their dick round the toilet bowl but things bounce with gravity. Inevitable contact although unintentional...

Thanks for the input though. Very helpful

I'm just saying it's poor dick management.

Which I suppose is to be expected from someone using it as an excuse as to why they want to keep pissing on the floor

So they can stand there and wave their wanger about peeing literally willy nilly!

They have to piss standing up, it's part of their genetic memory.
When they were hunters, they had to be ready to flee or fight in an instant, if a sabre toothed tiger or a woolly mammoth attacked them. So it was safer to stay on their feet when pissing.

Gradually, all the hunters who sat down to piss, died early deaths (some from sitting on a viper's nest) so the standing up genes became dominant.

German men sitting down to piss proves this theory, since the British (standing up to piss hunters) have twice recently beaten the slower to react (recessive genes, sitting down to piss hunters) from Germany.

I've only ever hovered over a festival toilet. Most public toilets are fine nowadays, and nothing bad will happen if the backs of my thighs get a bit of someone else's wee on them.

This has happened to DH twice. He goes down with a mighty crash!

Poor dick management. 🐳
You can buy "toilet targets" for the loo from places like Amazon that might help with his aim!

Isn't it more of an instinctive thing?
I have several sons and while potty training every one of them refused to sit down to wee. They insisted on standing up.
And anyone who thinks it's only men that piss everywhere must never have been in a womens public lav. Piss all over the seats and bogroll all over the floor which sticks to your shoes, is what I have found in many ladies bogs!!

Actually, I DO stand to have a wee after having poo. I seem to be unable to wee sitting down. Or lying down... when I was in hospital recovering from surgery I was busting for a wee, but absolutely unable to wee into a bottle lying down. I had to be catheterized.

Shouldn't the question be-why do men expect women to clean up their piss and why do women do it?

Males don’t have to pick one permanent way to urinate. They can stand to use public toilets, and sit down at home. 🤷‍♀️

I would image it would make 'wtiting one's name' in tbe snow considerably more difficult. 🤔

But you’ve got to get it out and then push it down. I guess standing up is just easy. I’d probably do the same .

I can think of a few reasons off the top of my head that I pee standing.

1. It was how I was taught to do it.
2. It means there's no chance of penis touching porcelain or toilet seat.
3. I never feel "empty" if I pee sitting down. I have to stand up to get the last little bit out.
4. Peeing sitting down when I've still got the remains of an erection runs the risk of pee spraying out the front, covering the front of the seat and the floor in front of the toilet.

Bonus: If I'm standing up I can aim at the skidmarks that DD and DP claim they never ever leave.

My DP won't wee sitting down. He claims the water is too cold....and deep!

It really pisses 😤 me off when men do that too

Clean up after yourselves Dick heads ! 🤪

It's easy simple to do

Or

Perhaps you don't have to even multi task either too

Dirty buggers aren't they at times..!

I did read something somewhere once upon a time and it was mentioned about making sure the pipe basically is fully empty by basically a lifting kind of motion. Where as quite a few men who don’t lift at the end of a wee can end up with dribbles because they haven’t fully emptied the pipe let alone the bladder.

You could have taught them the opposite. At the very minimum, you could call in the miscreant (or the nearest possible miscreant) every time this happens and make them clean up.

Each to their own but sitting in someone else's piss is a very far from 'fine' situation for me.
