I’m not really looking to hear from people who don’t think this way, with answers like “insecurity”, “toxic masculinity”, etc. I want to hear answers from men who really detest men who sit to pee.

Follow-up questions:

  • when you have to piss while shitting, do you stand up turn around and piss on your shit and then sit back down to finish shitting?
  • are you ever groggy in the morning?
  • how clean is your toilet and surrounding floor, and whose job is cleaning it?
  • what are your true passions in life?

      Please someone introduce the idea of ‘real men shit standing’ or ‘I shit my ground standing’ to toxic masculine MAGA people and make it a thing. 🙏

    “What is that? An umbrella? Are you afraid of a little rain? Are you gay? What’s the umbrella for, so you can stick it up your ass?”

    I’m ripping off Bill Burr here. Macho men are drooling morons who die at age 54. Why ask them their opinion on anything?

    I cant ever recall a time I have questioned, or been questioned, as to why a guy would sit to pee. I sit at home because its more comfortable. I stand at public toilets because the seats are gross

    When I was in medical school, I had to drop a deuce during a break between lectures. While I was in there, performing spectacularly, some other guy came into the restroom (situated just outside the lecture hall) and shouted “Is somebody takin’ a shit in here!?”

    and I was just like, “…yeah, where else would I do it?”

    But I feel like that guy who openly questioned why someone would shit in a bathroom, is exactly the same type of guy that would question someones masculinity over how they choose to take a piss.

    I always prefer to sit unless I’m in a huge hurry. It’s called a restroom for a reason. I’m going to take a break, browse Lemmy or something, and otherwise “rest”. I’ll return to work when I’m ready.

    What really pisses me off is when I hear someone enter another stall to take a standing piss. They rarely put the seat up and always get pee all over everything. If you’re going to stand, use a urinal. There’s nothing more pathetic than being afraid to whip your dick out beside your fellow man, and instead, choose to piss on the place where others want to take a sit.

    I mostly sit down when I pee because my cat likes to spend quality time when I’m on the toilet and he gets upset if into in the bathroom and don’t sit down.

    Remember manliness is not caring about how other people define manliness.

    I don’t know who really makes fun of how other people pee, 12 year olds on the Internet?

    Usually I stand, but if need to shit I sit or if it’s the middle of the night and I don’t want to turn on lights or sometimes I just feel like it.

    I clean the mat in front of the toilet every week and clean the toilet every few weeks. I do spot wipes daily.

      I’ve never had a conversation as an adult about how I use the bathroom. That’s decades. My bathroom stays clean though.

    when you have to piss while shitting, do you stand up turn around and piss on your shit and then sit back down to finish shitting?

    I tried this once when I was probably about two or three years old. It did not go well.

    As a man WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU TELLING ME HOW YOU PEE!?! What god damn conversation is going on!?! How the hell did this come up? We don’t normally talk about this!

    My true passion in life is Aztec history.

      We should though! We should just not be shit bags about it. Sharing & seeking info rather than having a weird chauvinistic view on how pee exits bodies.

        There’s nothing chauvinistic about it! I just don’t want to know or care about what you do in the bathroom. We’re not going to have a conversation about it. JUST WASH YOUR HANDS!

          I wiped my ass with a wadded up ball of 25 toilet paper squares for years because no one wanted to tell me about more efficient and effective ways to do it. Bathroom knowledge is like your paycheck. They say you shouldn’t talk about it with your peers, but it needs to be talked about.

          These days I can clean my whole ass, even on the most explosive days, with less than 10 squares, and I’m saving so much money.

    Is this still a thing that people get upset about though? Personally I think a man sitting down just to pee is kind of silly, but I certainly wouldn’t make fun or get upset about it. I think the last time I heard someone make a joke about men sitting to pee was like 15 years ago lol

      I will say the option to stand up is one of my favorite male privileges, but I’m also aware that such a petty thing to fav probably indicates my lack of perspective. But it is incredibly convenient in gross places and nowhere places.

      one stall

      🤨

      Things are contextual. “Does sit to pee” does not equate “always sits to pee”.

    Because the toilet touches your ass therefore automatically making you gay, bro. Same reason some men don’t wipe their asshole.

    I wish I was kidding.

    The King James Bible has the phrase those who “pissith against the wall” several times. In context it’s pejorative for the rude class or enemies of King David, but Christians who insist on the KJV struggle to read and understand it, and have taken it as God’s own description of male. and therefore pissing standing up isn’t just an aspect of masculinity, but it’s essence.

    If I have to poop as well as pee I sit. Who cares what some insecure dude thinks about that?
