Taiwan's Environmental Protection Administration minister Stephen Shen makes order in Taiwan that men must sit down to urinate. Local governments will soon post information that men should sit down. This is for public toilet.
The EPA say that standing up pissing is cause of bad hygeine because of of urine spatter. This is cause of bad health and bad smells too. EPA demand to people that they want to follow position of Japan in Sweden in urinate issue. EPA official say that in Japan 30% of men sit to urinate, so they have nice clean fragrant toilet.
But there is many protest to people, who say, it is stupid and difficult becuase they are not trained to sit down to urinate. People also ask if it is really good for hygeine according to study?
Is Does Japan and Sweden man really sit down to urinate? Is theirs toilet cleaner? Should men learn to sit down to urinate therefore?
Enforcement is going to be difficult at best. How do you determine if a person's sitting down or standing in a stall? What consequences does this have for urinals?
I sit down at home, but never elsewhere. I believe sitting down is a bad idea, because people will waste paper wiping the obviously disgusting toilet seats. Might as well just let the toilet be filthy but piss into it from a distance, right?
I sit down when i urinate. It's like it says in that article that if guys stands when they urinate it spatters all over. I think most people complain when their going to pubs mostly.
But on public toilets i don't sit down when i urinate i stand up mostly because the toilet seat is full of piss.
Men don't sit to pee in Japan, no idea where they're pulling that idea from. Most bathrooms have urinals, and 2-3 cubicles, which usually have 1 high tech toilet with built in everything, and one hole in the floor. Its not peeing they need to worry about, I can't count the amount of the times I went into the hole in the floor cubicles and found a lump of shit lying at the side because the previous occupant couldn't aim their arse crack.

We have paper seat covers where I work, but it's still kind of gross to think about.
some people just cant aim to save their life. i personally sit at home, but stand when not. i dont like the thought of sitting on a seat that others piss on a lot.
Are we assuming like really clean seats? Seems hard to believe otherwise and if it was really clean seats, they should tell us where they found some of those.

Squatting or sitting? I know some guys (like this one partner from my old company) who used to stand on the toilet seat and squat to shit. All the rest of us in the office always knew what brand leather shoes he was wearing from the giant footprints he would leave. It was disgusting
I'm a man. I drink beer. I fuck women. I work in the trades. I watch sports. I eat meat.
I sit down to pee at home. I don't find it demoralizing, or any femininity involved. I pee standing up when I drink beer, or in a public washroom, or at work.
Why wouldn't you sit down to pee, what the fuck is the problem? It's relaxing, I can read something quickly, I can pet my cat, it helps me RIPPPPPPPPP out a wicked fart, and I don't ever have to worry about getting bitched at for the seat being up. Sometimes it calls a great dumper too.

Well... duh? Also in case anyone was wondering (and it seems that many people are) they're talking about toilets. Not urinals. Urinals are designed for people to piss in standing up. Many public toilets are not. Hence why piss gets everywhere (and that's before you count people who can't aim.)
If you want to stand up, find a urinal. Otherwise sit your god damn ass down.

When sufficiently large, the nodules compress the urethral canal to cause partial, or sometimes virtually complete, obstruction of the urethra, which interferes with the normal flow of urine.

But then you have people who decide to pee standing up anyway, which makes it more disgusting to sit down, so I stand up. It's a vicious cycle, people don't want to sit down because other people might piss standing, etc... I pee standing because it takes too much effort to sit down and get back up for that little amount of time.
Well I agree that Japanese toilets are generally cleaner than others I've been in other countries we all still use the urinal quite a bit. Fortunately, most of us aim well () and cleaning is done constantly to keep it hygienic.

Same. You have to like push on your urinary tract like under your balls to get that last little bit out. Theres nothing worse than standing up after sitting down to pee and having a nice big dribble go all over your boxers. lol. Too much detail?
So how many people have died so far from urine splatter? Here's a better solution: tell people to use the urinal or to quit pissing on the damn toilet with the seat down.

i think a better OP would be, should you leave the door open or close? is it bm?
i guess im a little bit of an exhibitionist tho///////
I always sit down at home, much more relaxing. But since public toilets are most of the time filthy from people peeing standing up, I'm gonna stand there as well...
I wouldn't mind if everybody just sat on the toilet btw, but thats not gonna happen. Some people will like to stand and some don't. But yeah, kinda stupid for a government to decide how people wish to pee. It's not like they can regulate that shit (pun intended).
If you don't have a toilet at home, you might not get a bride in India. In a silent revolution of sorts, Indian women across the country, especially in rural and semi-urban areas, have a single condition before they agree to a match – the groom must have a toilet in his home.
Notice how everyone who sits down to pee specifies that they only do it at home and would never do it somewhere public. Regardless of the law there are going to be unsavory individuals who spray their piss all over the goddamn place, making it a dangerous proposition to simply sit down on top of all that stale piss.

Swede here and I've never heard of men sitting down here, especially not on public toilets. Load of bogus if you ask me. Public toilets here can be pretty bad which is why people don't sit. Though I guess if you compare public toilets in Sweden to other countries I can def see swedish one's being cleaner but that's probably because we have them cleaned often.
Japan toilets are probably clean all the time cause they are super awesome people.

Not really without causing a mess lol. And its weird touching my shit to pee, thats just wrong.
I tried google translate, but I still can't understand what ''touching my shit to pee'' refers to.
Men sitting down while urinating is the dumbest idea ever. Just imagine 20 drunk dudes, waiting in queue in front of the toilet... oh yeah that pretty much describes the female toilets and I am pretty sure they are much more disgusting than the male ones.
I love how the press release is based more on the grapevine and less on science. In fact, I tried to find data suggesting one was better and found none. Would penis size have any bearing on this? Seems to me if you're peeing sitting down and you have a large penis the splatter they mentioned will simply end up on your member. It might also be more difficult to avoid having your johnson contacting the dirty bowl. I'm waiting for the study on hygienic male urination that is controlled for penis size.
Wouldn't altering the design of the toilet so that rim overarches the bowl more be a less embarassing and less authoritarian solution than the currently proposed debacle? And don't men use urinals for pissing anyway making this all a moot point?
I piss standing up, and won't allow anyone to dictate otherwise.
I have never sat down just to pee, but sometimes i pee when i sit down to take a dump. I dont even sit when im so drunk i can barely stand, and i never will. I have never heard of swedish men sitting down to pee where did they get this from?
i sit to pee cause that's how i've been tought, i am actually not very good at peeing standing up. the only times i pee standing up with no big deal is when i'm outside (i mean like on the side of a road, or similar), otherwise when i am in a public toilet or whatever i have to lean on the front wall to pee lol. to the guy who doesn't touch his jewels, after you peed aren't you going to shake your snake before putting it back in your pants? but more in general, i don't see anything wrong with touching your body, since going to the bathroom is a thing you just cannot avoid. if you're sure of your body hygiene, i don't see any problem in doin it.
I hate having to press down my dick when i sit and pee (while taking a shit), it might also touch the inside of the toilet. If we gonna sit and pee then all toilets must have a lot more room in that area.
It's all true. Urine spatter is a little gross. Try going out at night with your boxers on and pee on the fence or some hard dirt and feel how much of it gets on your legs and feet lol. From a surprising distance... imagine it getting all over your pants every time and just not thinking about it.

Agreed. You're spending more time going to sit down then you are actually doing the event in the case of pissing. Plus it can splash up your butt or something.
Yea I sit down to pee at home... it is a habit I started when I had a herniated disc and couldn't stand upright ... it made peeing standing up kinda difficult and I just never got out of the habit at home.. but I pee standing up in public places now
If you have poor aim then perhaps you should sitdown lol.
I sitdown if there are no urinals available.
Oh and I visited a lot of cool bathrooms in Taiwan. I took so many pictures of their funny stuff all over their urinals like women with scissors smiling and all kinds of good stuff lol.
Personally I worry more about people not washing their hands after visiting the toilet, I can't even imagine out how careless someone must be to do that.
As for pee, it's pretty harmless. Maybe the smell of urine kinda sucks. As for number 2 with for example E. coli, not so safe. When I visit a public restroom, I always see those rubber mats in them, which prevent urine splattering I guess.
It's perfectly fine to wash your hands in it as this guy shows.
Sorry but i will not sit down to piss on a public toilet seat. I do not know who has been sitting on that specific toilet seat or the last time it was cleaned. No thanks, pretty ew..
I always try to avoid public toilets everywhere i go anyways.

There are those of us that could tell you the temperature of the water the moment we sat down to piss. I could go into lengthy detail, but I'll just leave it at that, and personally I find that situation more gross than potential splatter.
This reminded me of a humorous message that was on one of the doors to my floors bathroom: "If your dick is too small to aim sit down like the woman you are"
I know it's cleaner to just sit and pee... but I'm a fucking man and I can pee while standing and can aim well and all that shit! I'd rather just clean my restroom more often than to sit down and pee! HMPH!
When I sit down on a public toilet seat I will spit on a wad of toilet paper and wipe the rim as best I can, but there is one area I avoid and that is the northern shitcrust at the far end of the bowl, which forms due to sloppy shitters who splatter when they poop. I do not fancy touching that, so even when I do sit down there's this awkward balancing act where my dick is almost touching the inner rim of the front part of the bowl, but if I shift back to correct this I run the risk of smearing my ass onto the shitcrust. With smaller bowls this is a real problem, I usually solve it by squatting on the seat with my feet, which is fine when you shit but when you pee your penis needs to be facing down at all times. this requires the use of one hand to push it down, and presumably one hand holding a balance bar or something nearby to prevent losing balance due to the awkward position. However I find this entire exercise somewhat less accurate than just holding my junk and peeing while standing where I have better control over my center of balance and all.
I could see this being an even bigger conundrum for large dicked males. I will leave the insertion of an ethnic joke at this juncture to less cautious posters.

I don't know about you guys, but sometimes I pee like a race horse. 20 seconds is fairly short. You drinking enough water?
there actually is splash damage when you stand and pee, try not wearing pants and depending on your toilet, you may feel specks of piss splashing onto your thighs

The most effective Terran AOE spell... Piss Splash.
Also on a similar note since we are talking about stuff for cleanliness' sake, it is advised that you flush with the toilet covered by the cover, especially after taking a dump. The amount of stuff that gets splashed up and out of the seat during flushing is actually quite gross
I'd like to debate the pros and cons of standing or sitting while peeing in a toilet bowl, but it happens someone else did it for me. Therefore, since nobody linked it so far :

I can see what you're alluding to but unless you have a raging hard on there is no way your penis is touching the bottom of any toilet and if it is you should be able to tell it's a dwarf tube before you sit your ass down. Also by your description apparently you can't take a shit either because of your penis touching the water as well then? It's all fun and games to joke but at least be realistic ^^.

Don't be silly; he shits standing too.
Real men do everything standing yo. Didn't you read the article in 'Mens Health' Magazine that it is healthier to stand than to sit? They even removed all chairs from their office.
There have been enough myths about "dirty" toilet seats that have been proven to generally be false. There's nothing wrong with sitting down, just takes a slightly longer amount of time.

The fact you think "sitting down to pee is so gross" seems to be more emasculating than the actual act to me ^^
There are those of us that could tell you the temperature of the water the moment we sat down to piss. I could go into lengthy detail, but I'll just leave it at that, and personally I find that situation more gross than potential splatter.
I can see what you're alluding to but unless you have a raging hard on there is no way your penis is touching the bottom of any toilet and if it is you should be able to tell it's a dwarf tube before you sit your ass down. Also by your description apparently you can't take a shit either because of your penis touching the water as well then? It's all fun and games to joke but at least be realistic ^^.
Personally, I just squat a few inches above the seat to avoid that problem. As an added bonus, you don't have to get in contact with those nasty public toilet seats when you're not at home, and the squatting position makes your abs stronger.
Otherwise, I suppose you can just let it rest on your lap since you're not actively using it while you're taking a shit.
Not sure if its a law in Sweden, but I have read up on a feminist group trying to push for it because standing and urinating is a sign of dominance somehow when it was actually quite silly. I just hope groups like that don't think its a victory for themselves because frankly it isn't, and I am also not a fan of those kind of groups. There is no question that it would smell and be overall A LOT cleaner, there is nothing I hate more than seeing piss and stools on the ground or on the toilet itself. I just don't understand how people can even do that, you have to try pretty hard to actually get your bodily wastes to not go in the bowel.
I aim far or volley, causing way more splatter than most ppl.
Its my body or the bathroom so fuck that shit. I'm keeping my body as clean as possible. I also don't shit in public bathroom. I just have a regular bowel movement in the morning. Its not like I can't shit like that american pie kid, but id rather not. Its just gross. There's people like me volleying piss into the toilet remember that.
Also, I play the flush while you pee game where you try to perfectly time your pissing ending with flushing. Its where i get my godly sc timing skillz. If I lose fuck that shit. I'm too pissed (pun intended) to flush again. Kinda like leaving without saying gg like a boss.

Idk if this is a good law, but if bathrooms/toilets get cleaner then sure... really if people want to stand up they should really not miss, but obviously they eventually will (or splatter).
How are you supposed to cross swords when you sit down?!?!?! Also, many toilets in China (I'm not sure about Taiwan as I have not lived there) are squat toilets which can be just as messy standing or squatting to take a leak.
The truth is, if you stand up you WILL piss all over yourself, the splash back will cover your shoes, jeans and go all over the floor..
There was one apartment I stayed at once where the light was just perfect to show just how much splash back there actually is, it's like a fuckin hose spraying water on a field.
Since then I've always sat down to take a piss, it's better in every way UNLESS you are in a rush, if you have no time, zip and go is way faster.
There's no reason for men to stand while peeing. I don't understand why men stand to pee. I always sit at home. What blows my mind the most is when men try to act like there is some level of masculinity that is obtained by standing while peeing, LOL. If you can't feel manly while peeing, you got bigger problems.
I often pee sitting down at home, but in public because of this very issue of splatter I would definitely pee standing up. You don't want to sit your ass down on little microscopic droplets of urine that you can't see!!

Nothing manly about having urine all over your clothes!
we often times have a Urinal in public toilets, or at bars here in Germany. You know the stickers they put inside (flies for example) that should make you aim into it, so you concentrate peeing and don't overshoot?
Why wouldn't people just sit down, when its a usual toilet? They should. It's disgusting when the toilet is full of urine, because some people have a sprinkler. For me it's impossible to hit 100 % all the time. So I sit.
I only sit when im really drunk or really tired. And thats just to spare present me the embarresment of peeing allover myself, and to spare future me having to clean piss off myself / the floor / the ceiling
I just visited the US and i'd say that public bathrooms were much nastier there than they usually are in sweden. I don't know if that is due to our toilets being different or that people here are very neat and companies clean bathrooms often. Our toilets are deeper, have less water in them, and have more of an angle towards the floor so even if we stand there's way less splashing going on.
Toilets in Taiwan generally don't have that much water in them, so splash is rarely an issue. Unless I'm using a urinal, I pretty much always sit down to pee. I used to live in a dorm in high school and it was ridiculous how disgusting the floors around the toilets could get, to the point where I considered forcing all the guys to sit down and pee. It's seriously a lot cleaner, fairly comfortable, and only slightly less convenient.
Also, I'm surprised no one has linked to the thread where some dude tries to brag about his penis size by complaining about his dick touching the water when he sits down on the toilet.
I always sit. Unless the toilet looks particularly nasty (or there aren't any toilets available hehe).

I was about to post something like this, its so true.
Personally I sit at home (because I know the seat is 100% clean and I dont want to bother aiming or having to deal with a..... miss-aim), stand everywhere else. If I could have known everyone else always sat at public toilets I might have have sat there too. But knowing most stand, seeing and smelling the pee around the toilet, no thanks. You know, the problem is that once the first few men stand and splatter, more will stand, and then even more will stand. If you could actually enforce sitting on public toilets they'd be soooo much more clean. But I guess those manly men needing to feel masculin has to ruin that.
I developed the theory that every man who's not sitting to piss at home does not clean his own bathroom/toilet (and probably never had to clean one where guys were standing while peeing).
afaik most swedish men that I know stand up and pee. we sit down when it's more convenient, eg when you have to take a dump as well/you're really tired/drunk.
but yeah I can't speak for the general population, just some of my friends (~25 yr olds)..
one thing though, when offered a pissoir and a closed booth, most swedes will choose the closed booth even if they stand up and pee.
I dont know anyone that doesn't sit down and pee. Seriously, it's so fucking gross when travelling abroad and you go to a toilet to realize that people cant aim worth shit and you have to wipe the seat with Clilit BANG or something to remove all the nasty crap.
Left Party [in Sörmland, Sweden] wants men to pee sitting down
[...]
One reason has to do with hygiene and a desire to ensure that no one who uses the toilets at the county council's offices will be required to walk through puddles or residue left by stray urine which happens to splash out of the bowl and onto the floor when male employees pee standing up.
The Left Party also cites medical research it claims shows that men empty their bladders more efficiently when they are seated.
The improved bladder evacuation not only reduces the risk for prostate problems, according to the party, but also helps men who sit rather than stand achieve a longer and healthier sex life, the local Folket newspaper reported.

WTF is with this article mentioning the EPA and linking it with Taiwan? The EPA is a USA organization, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me to mention the two together really.
What I find more strange is that the EPA would talk about this issue at all in the first place — they're about the environment, not human health (well obviously health is affected by environment but that's not direct).
Lastly, isn't urine rather safe/sanitary? Sure it stinks, but I don't think it is actually the source of any real health issues; am I lacking information? At the least the EPA should have (or the article should have if the EPA did) mentioned various studies that support their claim — just saying something is hearsay and is baseless.

Men who don't stand to pee will have their penile privileges revoked and somebody from the Otak Corp will be over in 2-4 business days to repo your penis.
hanging toilets are for standing, sitting toilets are sitting, obvious. If there is a hanging in public i go to that one, if there is not, i'll not be sitting down, because its to nasty. I only sit down at home, and clean toilets from friends/family.
Taiwan's Environmental Protection Administration minister Stephen Shen makes order in Taiwan that men must sit down to urinate. Local governments will soon post information that men should sit down. This is for public toilet.
The EPA say that standing up pissing is cause of bad hygeine because of of urine spatter. This is cause of bad health and bad smells too. EPA demand to people that they want to follow position of Japan in Sweden in urinate issue. EPA official say that in Japan 30% of men sit to urinate, so they have nice clean fragrant toilet.
But there is many protest to people, who say, it is stupid and difficult becuase they are not trained to sit down to urinate. People also ask if it is really good for hygeine according to study?
Is Does Japan and Sweden man really sit down to urinate? Is theirs toilet cleaner? Should men learn to sit down to urinate therefore?
"They are not trained to sit down and urinate" that is like the dumbest excuse ever, its actually easier than standing and im pretty sure they have done it hundreds of times when they are taking a shit
Not that i would ever start sitting down to pee except if im already sitting down doing number two. Standing is just more fun
I sit at home but since people don't do it in public toilets I don't either. Which is stupid, but understandable. Also one of the reasons I avoid public toilets. I never use the toilets at work, for example.

Germany here. I sit down, even on public toilets, which are clean most of the time. There are way more disgusting things you touch every day than toilet seats. Coins or door handles for example. If you stand up while peeing, use a urinal.
When I am partying or just somewhere else, I normally stand at an urinal.
The biggest pussies in my opinion are those who are not using an urinal but a normal toilet standing there trying to hide their wiener or just being embarassed or whatever stupid reason there might be Oo
I usually sit at home, but always stand when away. I've heard that if you sit you get more of ths piss out, so you don't have to go as often. Honestly I don't really care though. I would pay good money to avoid having to sit at public restrooms though... that shit's nasty.

I don't know anyone that stands up to pee, but I completely agree with you. I stand because it's faster, and the faster the better. But whenever there is an argument of this nature, I always like to take a moment and laugh at all the idiots who feel like they need to prove their masculinity.
I'd also like to state that in Sweden, guys don't sit down to piss more than anywhere else, it's definitely not something that has been forced upon us by feminist groups. We hate those fuckers just as much as any other country, lol.
When I'm piss drunk sitting on the toilet makes perfect sense, becuase if you need to hurl you can do it while sitting on the toilet!
I will sit down most of the time, only because I keep magazines in the bathroom :D, and who doesn't play games on their phones? Its a good way to waste 15 mins.
I sit down at home because: 1) It's much more relaxing 2) I like to keep my bathroom clean and standing up always makes tiny splashes 3) I know the seat is clean so I'm not afraid to touch it
Outside of my home I just use the urinals. If none or them are available then I will pick a closed cubicle and piss while standing up.

The thing is, when you're standing up to pee, you're peeing on the wall/floor/ceiling automatically, doesn't matter where you aim.
Im pretty good at not hitting the walls, etc when I pee...
Plus that nice, clean, fragrant toilet is going to be immediately ruined when I rip a huge fart while peeing. This was written by an angry woman, not a scientific research group.
I sit down quite a bit, you just have to make sure your penis is pointing down, otherwise it can hit close to the ceiling and lid of the toilet and pour out rofl
when i wake up in the morning i like going to the toilet. while i'm there i always sit down. afterwards i always feel sooooooo great. YOU should try sitting while peeing too!
just visit sitwhilepeeing.com and look at your info video below!
Seems like this thread is 90% populated by people who stand and piss and are proud of it. This doesn't even have to be a discussion since you do whatever you want in your own home or away. Although, anyone who's over 10 and have cleaned a bathroom know that standing while pissing is basically doing the last bit of it just on the floor.
It's completely unnatural for a man to sit down to urinate. As it is to sit on the toilet to take a shit. It just isn't the relaxed position where everything flows freely.
Also, who the hell sits on a public toilet to urinate? Now THAT's unhygienic!

No... it's a question of being natural and letting nature do it's thing as intended. Last time I checked, there weren't any sitting toilets scattered around in nature. Also, South and South East Asian cultures hardly use the westernised "sitting toilet", and they dont suffer from nearly as many urological or colorectal problems.

In nature, you also peed on objects that weren't slanted at an angle and partially filled with water, causing a splatter everywhere effect.
You realize that if you start to apply this to your life elsewhere, you won't fit in with modern society very long (especially considering how showers can damage nature's intentions for body oils).
If I'm at my own place, or any generally clean place, I would never show the person responsible for cleaning the toilet the disrespect of pissing while standing. However trained you are, it will splash and it will be disgusting. It's also faster for me to sit down, because I have to only unbuckle my belt and pull down breeches and boxers in one motion, instead of opening the buttons on my pants, then opening the buttons on my boxershorts, take him out and so on...
In public places I can't even imagine sitting down, sitting down in someone else's urine, that's just gross.
There is always at least one urinal in the bathrooms around here. Urinals are more efficient (use less water) and contain urine splash by design. They are also faster so people don't have to wait as long, in the event that there is a line.
Anyway I don't know how they are going to enforce that. Have bathroom police that watch you while you pee? Install cameras and hire people to watch all day? Lol.
I pee standing both in public bathroom urinals and when I'm at home. I clean my bathroom every other weekend. Not really sure how peeing standing up could really be considered unhygienic. I bet half of you guys don't even wash your hands before you leave the bathroom.
I always sit down, but I never use public toilets (due to never needing that). Instead of rushing in, I like to use any such break to chill down a bit. And to answer butterednuts, I always wash my hands aswell.

i wonder how much people, who clean their toilet themself, continue standing. you just need to pee with shorts and you will feel why its not that great^^
What is it with all these guys having the necessity to show their manliness by standing up where noone can see it. Instead, do some REAL man's stuff like NOT browsing on the internet.
Mhhh I need to take a piss, and noone will stop me from sitting down.
I don't use public toilets, only public urinals. I sit down at home, and sit down at work. For a public law, it isn't going to work unless there's a security guard staring at every person that goes into a toilet cubicle. As for places without this law, sitting down is unhygenic as other people can be retarded.
I have had explosive diarrhea where I have no choice but to use a public toilet, then i pad down the seat (unless this is some amazing public bathroom and those do exist and clean up if I make any sort of mess)
Sometimes I pee/shit in a box and then tape it shut and mail it to my internet friends in another continent.
May as well join in on this odd thread haha... I'll piss sitting down if I'm taking a dump at the same time. Otherwise, I'm standing up. When not at home, I'll use the urinal mostly, or the stall to piss depending on what I feel like using. I have been knocked aside by drunks while taking a piss at a urinal, and also had some gay dude at a restaurant in a relatively gay neighborhood try to turn me around while trying to take a piss some years back, so I'm not exactly the most comfortable with urinals. XD At night, if I'm roving the streets, if I need to take a piss, I find a place without people around and just take one.
But yes, I will stand up to piss any way you put it unless I'm taking a dump as well.
I started to prefer sitting after I discovered how much piss actually splashes out of the bowl and onto your pants when using a urinal. It's especially bad if it's one of those no-sitting-water urinals.
And people wonder why most guy's rooms smell while girls' don't... it's not just the perfume... you really do have setting urine on your clothes. Also, if you've ever heard that saying about no matter what you do, you still dribble the last drop into your pants... for guys like me with this issue, maybe your urethra is too large (it's a blessing really ) or what have you, it's handy to have the toilet paper near by to pull out that last drop.
Whenever using a public toilet my goal is to touch absolutely no surfaces at all. It is simply too disgusting sitting down on a seat spattered with pee and worse :-O. 'Enforcing' this may help hygiene, but sooner or later someone would leave the toilet a mess.
At home I dont mind sitting down to pee, I suppose it depends on whether or not I left the seat up or down the last time I used it!

Well its not just from guys standing up to piss, if you actually aim at the toilet only tiny droplets will end up on the seat, and very rarely on the floor. I don't know why but some guys actually TRY to not hit the toilet, public restrooms are horrendously disgusting, HUGE puddles on the ground or all over the seat, random feces laying on the seat or even on the ground. Its not just the guys who use restrooms properly whom also stand that make it dirty.

I don't know about your toilette, but the one we have at home - if you piss very very very close to the edge nothing bounces back onto your feet. The downside: it's very very very easy to miss the sweetspot and just pee all over your fucking place :D

Yeah i only sit down if the toilet is elongated instead of a round bowl, else my dick is gonna touch the toilet seat so f dat.(It's more about me being quite tall not that my dick is particularly large)

Not to be rude, but people with either excessively short or narrow urethrae (latter of which is more commonly known as pencil dick) might not appreciate how annoying this is.
I'm from Sweden, and I promise you when I use public toilets. I never sit down to take piss. Never have, never will. You can say that i'm a fan of stand-up baa dum tss
If your penis is so small that you have to stand really close to the urinal so your pee doesn't drip on your shoes towards the end so piss splashes onto your hands then you ought to use the toilet. Aim well and put the seat back down.
Sitting is not really an option for most men because we most cannot tuck our wangs in such a way that we can direct our stream into the bowl. Also, the amount of splashing on the butt is far more disgusting than when a urinal is used, and you CAN'T wash yout buttcheeks in public. At least you can wash your hands.
LOL, i find it much more comfortable to sit, and noonee ever will see that iam not a standing douche that needs to prove iam a men haha. Why want so many guys pee while standing :D

No matter how much you shake or dance, the last few drops stay in your pants.
Of course sitting down to urinate is cleaner to the environment, considering that everything that would splatter outside the toilet bowl would splatters onto your bottom side! So yeah, confronted with a toilet bowl, I will always stand unless they find a shape that reduces the mess in a sitting position.
edit: and at home I am also standing, but I am also the one cleaning the bath (out of obvious reasons).

Push penis down, pee onto face of toilet bowl so it doesn't splash. I'm sure men can pee into a toilet bowl. But from your first sentence, you seem to be proud of your massive penis. Are you saying your penis is so long it can't be pointed into the toilet while sitting down? If so, congratulations, I would love to be you.

I'm curious to know if the guys claiming that they clean their own bathroom sit because it's cleaner also shave their nether regions and arm pits after seeing all the stray pubes in their bathroom. IT'S MORE HYGIENIC BRO!!!

TL should add an upvote button just so we can give the quoted post the recognition it deserves.
Generally, I'm a sitter. I don't urinate in a less comfortable position because I'm so insecure about my masculinity.
If a toilet is so disgusting that I won't sit on it then the chances are I won't use that toilet at all.
Standing up whilst pissing is usually reserved for the outdoors or emergencies[read filthy public toilets], though every now and then I will piss whilst standing for no particular reason.

pee is honestly pretty harmless anyways its almost all water, doorknobs and stuff have more bacteria on them the a toilet bowl.

You should buy a better toilet. Don't use those plastic ones for kids.
Taiwan's Environmental Protection Administration minister Stephen Shen makes order in Taiwan that men must sit down to urinate. Local governments will soon post information that men should sit down. This is for public toilet.
The EPA say that standing up pissing is cause of bad hygeine because of of urine spatter. This is cause of bad health and bad smells too. EPA demand to people that they want to follow position of Japan in Sweden in urinate issue. EPA official say that in Japan 30% of men sit to urinate, so they have nice clean fragrant toilet.
But there is many protest to people, who say, it is stupid and difficult becuase they are not trained to sit down to urinate. People also ask if it is really good for hygeine according to study?
Is Does Japan and Sweden man really sit down to urinate? Is theirs toilet cleaner? Should men learn to sit down to urinate therefore?
Dumb idea, I think there was a recent documentary on Discovery featuring Mike Rowe that showed that flushing the toilet water is the main agent for "bacterial/whatever" propagation outside of it (you know tiny little droplings that floats around after flushing). Also human urine isn't that "deadly". But, I don't know, hope I'm not right, forcing males to sit down on toilets will have a direct implication on their own health, as they are more exposed to unwanted microbial/fungal contamination.

They need to learn to sit down to urinate? Why the f*** should you need to learn it?
I sit at home if I am tired or something like that but anywhere else I stand. Public restrooms are disgusting. Especially the ones that are in rest areas.
I'm not too sure that stray pee droplets are a significant threat to public health. Besides, I'd hate to see the poor fuckers who have to enforce this shit. Staring at dicks all day long has GOT to be the most depressing dead-end job out there.
LOL I 100% support this as women all around the world probably have always had to deal with so much shit and men couldn't handle giving up standing up and waving their dick around
lol wow if it weren't for urinals we could VERY EASILY INTEGRATE all bathrooms aka make them all gender neutral.

But think of the shit that would brew IF bathrooms were widely gender neutral.

I'm not sitting down in some hepatitis infested public restroom sorry..even if i have to take a shit I squat without touching the seat. most places don't even have the paper seat covers.
btw folks..piss is sterile. Anyway thats why they have janitors, if its gross go get management and tell em to get their toilet scrubber to do his job.
I general I don't think we sit more then other countries. I myself mostly stand all though I agree with many stated benefits about sitting down instead

Plus the fact that after nearly every social event, there's a ridiculously long line for the women's bathroom (my god, what do they do in there?) and no line for the men's (man law: get in, do your business, get out). We know how to keep moving!
Having to suffer through huge bathroom lines because of gender-integrated bathrooms... I'll pass on that

It is not manly to sit down! You have to smoke a cigar, shoot guns, and repair an engine when you pee else you are not a real man!
In all seriousness I sit down to pee when I am at home, I don't find anything wrong with that. Standing is too much work )

No but really, all they have to do is raise the seat. I mean that's what its there for, right? Sitting down every time you have to pee would be such a waste of time. I think that's why the female washrooms always tend to have a much longer lines than mens'...because they don't have urinal stalls!
What's up with so many Swedes in this thread pissing while sitting down.Is that a cultural thing lol? Aside from that I will quote my gf on this subject:"I would never force you to sit down while peeing.Aside from not having to bleed for a few days every month for 4 decades of your life,it's one of the rare natural privileges of being a man."
Is it still okay if I stand while I take a shit? i will try to fit my fat ass in the urinal to pee, but I have a feel my dick will be on top of the urinal cake. but can I still stand while I take my shit? Just curious..

I sit down to pee anyway, the chances of splash damage are just too high + it's more relaxing anyway *shrug* I usually avoid using the bathroom at a public place anyway, but when I do it's the only time I pee standing... cause most public bathrooms really don't look inviting at all.

No need. I clearly remember Artosis covered that during GSL down time...
this thread is hilarious, i personally like to stand on a chair when i pee so its even harder to aim, takes a little extra time dragging the chair into the bathroom but i feel super manly. Also super leet shitting tip rock back and forth to push out those extra tough dupes.(Howard Stern taught me this XD)
I do find standing to urinate at a bar or bar & grill style restaurant (or any eatery that serves booze) has a 2 foot radius of piss all over the floor. Irritates me because I don't understand how you can't control NOT getting a ton on the floor. It's like these people stand 3 feet back and go side to side like a sprinkler.
I think everyone should sit down, at least I do. You can dry the seat with paper before sitting down if it's a public toilet. This is why I like Asia, seems to be clean. The leaders think about this sort of "trivial" stuff.

Do you guys really piss in your sinks? That's disgusting. The dishes go in there!
I think they mean the sink in the bathroom I hope you aren't doing your dishes in the bathroom. sometimes I sitdown to pee but almost 90% of the time I stand up, I find it interesting that it's an issue. Sure public toilets are pretty bad but no one wants to sit on them even to poop. I have hovered my fair share in public stalls.
I think they are just saying that japan and sweden have a higher percentage of males that do sit down to urinate (probably through some sort of polling or research is where they got their data)
They werent saying that all men in japan sit down to urinate, or that its even a law there they where just saying that 30% of males in japan happen to sit down and urinate. Im not sure if it was the same numbers for sweden they didnt mention numbers.

Exactly. The best part is you don't have to waste time shaking. Just rinse your penis off with some nice cold water after you're done and you're good to go. Feels especially relaxing on a hot summer day.

LOL DONT HATE MAN. I use to sit down when I was a kid. Now i stand but yea i leave a water trail after im done with the urinals. I try not to get too close to the urinals o_O dont want my pants touching it.
Would be interesting to know who actually cleans his bathroom. I know quite a few households, where the mother gets mad at men for not sitting down, because they claim it is less clean. Men not knowing that it is quite an effort to keep a bathroom clean, will most likely laugh at this issue. This is in Germany.
I like the bathrooms with an urinal, sitting down seems odd since I, thorughout my life, took a leak standing. I never understood why some women can urinate without sitting down and others not. It's a lilttle weird when you are with a girl and she dissappears to take a leak in the woods. Am I the only one with friends like this?

I occasionally sat down to pee when I was a child (pre 9 years old). Now I am far too big to get it in there while sitting, I am a big guy though, 6'3, 220lbs.
yeah no matter how good your aim is, when you pee standing up into a toilet bowl, some water/urine will always splash out out of the bowl, onto the floor/your feet/legs. try putting some white paper around the bowl and you'll easily see the specks, which over time becomes a smelly, unsanitary nuisance
wow, that's a strange topic to discuss.. besides, Isn't the urine actually pretty clean? AFAIK it should not have any bacteria etc. in it, so even if some splash around the toilet it is not a big problem..just clean your bathroom once in a while.

Urine's not clean, but it's sterile. Not going to kill you, but neither is purified sewage water. The squeamishness of our human nature dictates upon than what logic would otherwise determine. I will not sit down to piss ever. Under normal circumstances, I aim just fine. I've had years of practice doing it ffs. If it's one of those times when it's hard to *ahem* aim, then sitting down will not help - a head stand might though.
men will find a way to piss on the floor while sitting so the problem isn't sitting or not sitting but rather the spillings. since that is solved with a urinal, the only problem remaining is to make men want to do it in it and not arround it.
the ones that do it on the floor do it on purpose, while playing. it has nothing to do with aim (unless they're stupid drunk and/or have no foreskin)
Wtf, i think i do not sit to urinate since i was 3, lol. Just fking aim well. I remember those toilets with the fly pic to shot that bitch to death lol.
But yeah, is almost unposible to avoid the "colateral spit".

This is actually an issue specific to North America, I find. I don't know why the water level is always so freaking high in the seats over there. I got dipped the first time I sat down on a U.S. bowl, it was the first time I visited someone's home there and it fucking freaked me out. It's happened to me in Canada as well but never outside of NA.

I just did this... and the result was really disturbing. I think I might have to adjust to sitting.. sigh
I have tried sitting whilst urinating before, for reasons unclear to me. Maybe it was because in the past I constantly made a big splash around the toilet bowl. Sitting does feel abnormal to me nonetheless, and there is no way that I would adhere to this kind of policy if it ever was implemented in my country. Just think how disgusting it is, bar for the use at your own home. But public toilets are infested with millions of germs.
I always sit down, anything else is unsanitary and there are no good reasons not to. However, I don't want the government to tell me what's right or not on the toilet. I'd rather see people sitting because of LOGIC than being forced by law.
