    I'd heard a lot of younger Japanese men do it to the extent that men's bathrooms there are being built with less urinals and more cubicles.
    Anyway, looks to be gaining traction in Germany too since it actually went to court that at least one land lord expects his male tenants to sit

    German men 'free to pee standing up' http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-30937492

    Not the best thread after loosing my bet :)

    But - I have no mortal recollection of ever having pee'd standing up.

    Don't think I've ever done it.

    Ya, I pee sitting down, it frees up my hands, so I can put on my lipstick:cool:

    Only if your doing a #2 at the same time. Other than that absolutely no.

    Well you see if a man doesn't sit down to pee he runs the risk of seriously injuring his vagina


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,934 ✭✭✭MarkAnthony


    Comfort man, comfort.

    Obviously in a public toilet I do what every man does. Piss in the general area of the building the toilet is in and if I'm using the bog don't flush the chain.

    Early I. The morning, when I'm solo tired that an extra 30 seconds makes a difference, I do me toileh sitting down

    I have to stand at least 5ft away from the toilet in the morning to get the angle needed.

    Pure laziness and an affront to mankind.Hairy Japanese bastards.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,834 ✭✭✭stimpson


    Germans have weird habits around pissing in general. At least according to some movies I've seen on the Internet.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,436 ✭✭✭c_man


    I do it the odd time. As a reward for work done or just as a random treat. A break from the world


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 744 ✭✭✭dpofloinn


    Madness sure its not even possible to sit in a urinal

    You can't blast things with piss if you're sitting down.

    That CLEARLY depends on where (or on who) you are sitting :)

    South Park have given a good reason why.

    It surely the way to go in the middle of the night. Saves putting light on and waking yourself up. Other than that be upstanding !

    A man peeing sitting down isn't a man.

    Touche


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,798 ✭✭✭✭hatrickpatrick


    I always pee standing up but I always do so in a cubicle as opposed to a urinal.
    How so many lads can live without wiping the tip of their weiner after peeing is something I will never understand.

    I love sitting down for a slash. Utter relaxation as I empty myself, nothing more satisfying. Except maybe a big dump.

    That being said, I'd only sit down on my own loo and if I'm not in a hurry and/or lazy. Like in the morning when you're still half-asleep.

    Urinals freak me out though... I don't care what people say, I'm not pissing in front of strangers if I can help it.

    and a heated toilet seat FTW...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,303 ✭✭✭Pwindedd


    I'm lucky enough to live with a sitting-pisser. Toilet seat is always down, and there is no spillage in the immediate vicinity. His reasoning is why stand to do something when you can sit?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,894 ✭✭✭UCDVet


    If there is a urinal - I'll use it. But if I'm at home - sitting makes a lot more sense. Even if you don't miss, you'll get splashes of piss and toilet water everywhere.

    No matter how much you wriggle and dance, the last drop always ends up in your pants

    Some of the guys over here use stones for this with the stone then deposited in the urinal, the stone size being a message to the next guy.

    need both hands free to play angry birds


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,147 ✭✭✭PizzamanIRL


    I sit because I'm sick of fork streams getting piss all over the seat and floor

    I dont use urinals. We had a long one in secondry school and people thought it was funny as hell to trip and push people using it. Ever since seeing this I still avoid them. One unlucky guy landed in it up to his elbow.

    You probably need to try and get past this.

    if it prevents you walking out of the toilet with a splashback map of the greek islands steaming against your inner thigh Im all for it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 748 ✭✭✭Axel Lamp


    I do it regularly and it has it benefits:
    • More time for Angry Birds,
    • less time at desk in work
    • relaxation, and
    • the occasion often develops into a full on poo.

    it's a win-win

    That is annoying 😄 I sitll stand most of the time except when I need a dump too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,624 ✭✭✭Hoop66


    Better a seated piss than a standing shite.

    No. That's weird. Way weird

    Personally I'll take a standing piss before sitting on toilet because
    a) its less hassle and
    b) I don't have to worry about the potential filth of the toilet seat.

    I'm sure I'm not the only one who lifts the seat with their foot to avoid contact with it.

    But then your footwear would be contaminated.
