Question for the guys. Who else here sits down to pee?

Never really thought much about sitting to pee, I do sometimes. Being a sailor from a very young age, I learned early on that standing while voiding in a boat was a losing proposition. with the constant, irregular motion it made more sense. I certainly don't consider sitting to be a particularly gender oriented activity, I know women who rarely sit and seem to think it normal not to pee sitting and many of m male friends, like me, have learned that sometimes sitting is appropriate. It probably helps if one doesn't always sexualize every activity.

Did it for the wife and to be honest I prefer it! I like the whole act of pulling my pants down, peeing, giving my dick a little rub and then pulling my pants back up. I’m always in a hurry and this is one of the ways I center myself and slow down!

I sit 85% of the time, it's easier, and you don't get the splashing, or a couple drips on the seat.

That's what I demanded to my husband in the past, to sit down and not sprayed around.

Now I made a small washbasin to the height of his penis, so he could stand on his feet and piss.

I wrote about it in my stories

I sit down to pee now because I'm in a chastity cage all the time now so its easy to pee sitting down

I always sit down to pee, except when I'm in a public place (restaurant, cinema, theater, etc.) and I'm good with a simple urinal. Apart from finding it relaxing, sitting down stimulates my thinking – even if only for a few seconds. I guess The Thinker is more appealing to me than, say, the Peripatetic school...

I sit down except when out in public. The wife does not have to clean any oops up. I seem to found that I can also read things while sitting.

Yes I sit down in respect for my wife . I would not like to sit on a wet seat either. Makes cleaning the seat and the toilet easier .

Well as I’m a while user I always sit down to pee.

When I’m at home I always sit down to pee. I always stand up when using public restrooms. At my office I may do either, but lately I’ve been sitting down and using my phone to check the latest feed on Zity.

I generally pee sitting down unless I'm out. One, I'm a little lazy and like to sit and stay away check messages, zity, e-mails, etc. And two, I have glaucoma and I've lost some sight, so sometimes especially in low light, it's hard for me to see my stream and I don't want to make a mess. Just easier and less mess.

It has become very natural for me to sit and use the potty if I am at a facility.

A few here mentioned sitting so that they don’t drip/splash on the seat. Why aren’t you lifting that up first? It’s on hinges so that you don’t have to pee through the hole!

I think most of us DO lift up the seat. But I'm still aghast at the stupidity of those who don't/can't.

Me, I have to self-discipline myself to clean the john every now and then.

All my life I have noticed that people who live alone, that goes for men and women, that their toilets were almost always dirtier than when two people lived together.

Women are as guilty as men because they never lift the seat, and you would be appalled at the toilets with urine and blood stains they never noticed on the under side of their seats.

I've noticed that when I lift the seat. My wife actually did a pretty good job in the old days but now will not clean a toilet. She has people that come in and do that. I always think it must suck to have to clean someone else's toilet. Yuck. I salute janitors everywhere.

I sit all the time at home, I dont care to sit in public restrooms unless i have to for fear of germs, and even then i will go through great lengths to clean the seat as best I can

I've now hired a cleaning lady, to do my kitchen & bathroom. So at home I always sit down to pee because I don't want to ruin the good work she did.

Any public restroom where there's a urinal I still piss like a man.

Yes, When I can, I sit down. It makes for a more complete bladder emptying and less chance of having some "dribble" ending on the trousers. Has nothing to do with any sexual preference etc, just not wanting to have pee stains or wet spots on the pants.

@jonw Even when you sit down to pee - you’re still peeing like a man. 😃

At home I always sit to pee. I'll use the urinal at public restrooms. Sitting helps my flow and I empty more properly. It also avoids the argument of forgetting to put the seat down from my wife.

I always sit to pee on toilet unless I am in public restroom which I try to avoid using in the first place unless there is emergency.

I just don't want to bother with aiming or worrying about drops and splashing. Also I always wipe the last drop because you can never shake it clean and you will be left with smelly stain.

About toilet seats I always like to have it closed.

Just when I am making "number 2" too! LOL

At home I always do, seems cleaner to do... outside, standing... As an aside, my wife wonders if because women sit, do they have more knee problems? I wonder about that too because getting up and down from our low toilet does put stress on them..

A regular toilet seat is 14.5 inches high. A kitchen/dining room table chair seat is around 17 inches high. We replaced our toilet with a "convenience" toilet that is 17 inches high. It does make a difference in the stress and effort required to stand. I would think long term effects on the knees would depend on how often you sit on the John and any other related problems with your knees. Here in the States you can get a "convenience" toilet that is 16-17 inches high anywhere from a $100 -$200. As you get older - it's probably worth it.

That would be my answer as well.

My house also came with a squat low toilet and we remodeled and replaced it with higher toilets. It makes all the difference. My brother in law will now stop at my house before he goes home just because he likes our toilets. He also drinks all my beer the dimwit!

Maybe you should get a new brother in law! 😄 😄 😄

We have had the American Standard and Kohler toilets mentioned and by far the best ones are the American Standard Champion 4 toilets in the ONE PIECE DESIGN which makes cleaning easier because the tank and bowl is all one piece. Our next door neighbor has Totos and when I have been there, I was not impressed. It equaled the Kohler, but the American Standard was FAR better. The flush valve on the American Standard is the biggest one on the market and when I say the water flushes like a flash flood out west when it rains after a dry spell, I mean it.

That toilet advice article mentions convenient toilets range from 17-19 inches high. I looked at Home Depot, Lowes and a plumbing store and ended up with a Jacuzzit 17 inch high toilet. Wish I had done more research and ordered a 19 inch high toilet!! I have to lift my wife off the seat, going from 14.5 to 178 inches makes it easier, another two inches would be even better. We have a Toto "washlet" bidet toilet seat. It certainly is not as good as a real bidet but it is does a pretty good job. Front and back wash, temp control, pulsating, oscillating and temp control. It has an air dryer that is marginal - you either still have to wipe or have a slight wet sport for a while! The really nice feature is that it senses when you approach it and immediately heats up the seat. It's a pleasure to sit down, especially in the winter.

Go to a surgical/convalescent supply store and you can get toilet seat risers in various heights.

They are NOT expensive.
