      Yeah ironically growing up this was the argument. I closed the toilet lid and my sister was outraged. She eventually went to my mother and asked her to talk to me about the toilet. So my mom brought us together and said “lengau, you need to stop leaving the toilet seat up.” I looked confused and my sister said “no, he keeps closing the lid!”

      My mother burst into laughter and told my sister that she should do so as well.

      I know right? Why is there a lid if no one uses it? Keep that poo water in the bowl where it belongs when you flush

        Also keeps you from dropping stuff into the toilet. Plus you can set things on it which is useful in small bathrooms with little counter space

        The poo water spraying everywhere doesn’t matter though. Your immunesystem evolved to live in much much dirtier environments. Shit, I bet most people on this site has licked an ass once or twice, and they didn’t die.

    You folks don’t use a poop harness mounted to the ceiling? One you get good at aiming, there’s hardly any splatter at all!

    I don’t get this, are you just so entitled or would you prefer he pees while the sit is down so it becames filthy?

    Anyway, the solution is clear: normalize to sit to pee dammit

    yeah as a woman, I don’t get this complaint. I’d prefer a closed lid and also just don’t pee on the toilet seat. My husband was “trained” by others to not leave the toilet seat up and it’s just annoying and gross for me.

    Is this really only about putting down the seat or also about inevitably making a mess when you pee standing up?

    If you don’t sit down to pee at home you’re a twat. It’s the manliest thing you can do. Anf it’s much much easier to clean

      I don’t care if you want to splatter all over the bathroom that you have to clean. I DO care if you splatter over the bathroom that I have to clean.

        Also like… If you’re gonna splatter all over your own bathroom, please clean it before you have guests.
