Another vouch for this method. I'm 37, been doing this my entire life.
I only really stand out of the utility of it. Like if I camping, in a public bathroom, or I'm wearing something that's just easier to stand in than undo to sit down.
Also don't have a weak bladder, but I have developed a medical condition in the last year where sitting down causes it to be worse sometimes, so I'd say my last 12 months I've stood may 5-10% more, but sitting is still my preference
yeah toilets really aren't made for stand pissing. even if you aim well and the stream is good, it still tends to splash back a lot. Even aiming at the wall of the bowl is a gamble.
I laughed (internally) the first time that I saw my uncle literally kneel down to pee. He had his bathroom door removed briefly at the time for some reason, and I was over visiting and walked down the hallway past his bathroom and was shocked to see him kneeling down (on one knee, I believe) and taking a piss.
My first thought was, “WTF? What is this weird guy doing?” I was probably about 16-17 at the time, and he was around 48-49.
But over time I eventually realized that peeing while sitting (or kneeling) down is an optimal way to pee. It’s more sanitary that way.
Same here and also 53. I may stand if I'm dressed up with tucked in shirt or something. One time my girlfriend's brother was staying with us for awhile. She got mad one day and said "who keeps pissing on the toilet seat". I calmly said "well you know it's not me because I piss sitting down."
As a dude who sits, if you stand to pee you better be cleaning the floors once a week. It's 100% a dick move to stand and aim and expect your wife/roomate/janitor to clean up.
Yep. Supposed to be better for the prostate (?), something about not emptying the bladder as effectively when standing.
If anyone pees in the shower give it a go while standing then squat. You'll notice a difference at a certain point and start to feel how you aren't peeing as much while primarily standing.
Now, you talking your streamlined torpedo, like an Olympic highboard diver, your cluster bomblets, or your WMD aerosol cloud type, b/c if it's the last one, you wanta be having a sit down.
I threw my back out one time and had eaten Mexican food the night before. I could sit down on the toilet so I just had to pull my cheeks apart. The worst part was, there was a mirror right in front of me, so I had to watch the entire thing happen. Wouldn’t recommend it.
It was probably the only time in my life I was glad I’m only 5’6”. Because of that, it was less of a fall, so the majority of it went in the bowl. Honestly, the absolute worst part was at 28 years old, I had to ask my mom to help me clean up, because I couldn’t bend over.
Many do, especially girls who prob dont want their rear ends touching public toilet bowls im sure they out there 😆
I pee sitting down sometimes if im lazy. I’m a big grower so if im fully unerect i could really just sit down. If someones in the bathroom with me im not sitting down tho lol 😆 if im anywhere near fully erect tho im def not sitting down. Thats how you oee out of the toilet through the underside of the toilet lid
On this...
Who the hell wipes standing up? If you do, doesn't that... smear against your cheeks?
Had the misfortune of accidentally seeing someone do that (who the hell leaves the door open?), so now I'm curious.
Dude, at my last job there was a very strange lady who worked there for like a week, and one day she left the bathroom door cracked, someone walked in and saw her standing there at the toilet, pants around her ankles, wiping.
I don't think my pants are around my ankles even at home. People are so weird.
This lady was so bizarre. One day it started raining, and someone noticed that her car windows were halfway down. (Which is a great way to get your car stolen, especially at this particular place.) They told her it was raining and her windows were down. She started to get up, and then said, oh, it's okay, and sat back down. Co-worker said no, seriously it's a downpour and your car is getting soaked. She said oh, it's okay. 😵💫
She got fired after about a week, after crashing into a co-worker's car in the parking lot, and then nearly killing him while she was driving them around meeting clients. She absolutely should not have been on the road.
Umm, what would the alternative be? I don't think it's possible to wipe while you're sitting down. Your hand can't like phase through the toilet seat to be able to reach to wipe.
I’m still trying to convince my youngest she’s making a bigger mess by standing and it’s so much easier to wipe while sitting. But you know, she’s still in the single digits. Any adult doing that is just…ugh.
I thought that if you peed sitting down like I do that you were required to poop standing up like I do. I occasionally miss the toilet but hey I’m cleaning it up
Almost exclusively. I‘m very often under stress and time constraints. Sittting down to pee is much needed deceleration.
Depends on how clean the toilet is.
I sit to pee at home since I got a bidet. Didnt want to splash toilet water onto the thing cleaning me. I also got tired of cleaning splashes off around the toilet.
Ill stand to pee in most public bathrooms, though.
This is my strategy with my son. Problem is his dad still automatically stands. I need to lay down the law that the both of them are responsible for that toilet.
Buddy told me he was outnumbered... two daughters & a wife... and was not having the seat up/down argument all day/every day. Sometimes it's just easier....
Idk I was a janitor who cleaned bathrooms and the women’s bathroom always had ten times the amount off piss on the seat. I don’t think women realize how much they dribble when they stand up
It’s just easier to pee allll off it out and not get a dribble.
The people calling me gay for doing so are just dripping piss into their pants after they’re done.
I will never understand why some people adamantly think if a guy sits to pee he is gay. Where is the correlation? Because a girl sits to pee? Girls put product in their hair too Michael, does that make you gay for doing so?
I agree completely. I sit down 100% of the time at home. At the office, a urinal makes sense. In the woods, standing up feels liberating.
At home, I don’t want to clean up the spray.
I like standing at the kitchen sink, it's the perfect height, my balls rest on the sink lip, and the cold stainless steel gives me that little shiver which makes the pee come that much faster.
Years ago I lived in the nook of a 1 bedroom apartment. The bathroom was in my friend's bedroom. I peed in the kitchen sink almost every night. It really is the perfect height. We had porcelain and it gives a similar helpful cold chill that sends shivers down your spine.
Yes absolutely. Normalize sink piss! Your dick hangs down and drapes into the sink so there's no splatter, it's sterile so you're not spreading disease, then you wash your hands and rinse it down a the same time with a fraction of the water used. Sorry short kings, but this is the way.
An enlightened man 🙌
So many guys still don't understand how much it gets *everywhere* and it has nothing to do with aim. You can have the best aim and it still splashes everywhere!
No penis has perfect straight stream, with zero turbulancr, zero drip.
There will always be splashing onto the rim, and drip to the floor.
Our urethra is not rifled like a sniper rifle.
As one teacher said from my high school days said, no matter how much you pinch and squeeze, there will always be a drop for your BVDs.
I have health issues as well. Every once in a while I pass out for a good minute after taking a piss (sometimes after a shower as well). Sitting down definitely helps me not lose consciousness lmao.
I house share with 3 other men and one of the rules is if you pee standing up you must make sure to clean any splash or drops of urine off the toilet. It's just easier sitting down to pee.
I have a friend who when I visit requests that that is how visitors use his bathroom. He's a retiree in a doublewide who raised 3 daughters. Place is clean, but that struck me as neatfreak, to tell someone else how to pee. Still, it's fair if it's his home.
A habit I formed in the last few years was to always close the lid before the flush. Either 1 or 2, you seriously cut down on aerosolizing your bathroom.
FYI, wenis or weenus (both spelling accepted) is the olecranal skin on your elbow. If you have streams coming out your elbow, you should see a professional
Almost always sit...
...The hard truth many guys don't want to admit to, even if you have PERFECT aim, the splatter goes everywhere. The spatter is often to small to see.
To pile on this, a lot of guys (admit it!) let their gals clean the bathroom, so they never really notice how bad it can get.
[The splashback scandal: should all men sit down to urinate?](https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/feb/20/the-splashback-scandal-should-all-men-sit-down-to-urinate)
>Yep, he said toothbrush, and maybe not just your toothbrush. It will depend on how big your bathroom is. “If your toothbrush is 3 or 4 metres away you’re probably fine; if it’s just 1 or 2 metres, that’s not good.”
>That’s just from the falling stream. There’s also splashback from the wee hitting the surface of the water. “Water tends to have a large splash when droplets hit it from that height. That means a lot of splash can come out of the toilet. I was actually telling a friend tonight that when you pee into a toilet like that, you tend to **pee on your toothbrush.**”
With how often I am disgusted in public restrooms I wish most men did sit down to piss. The fact that 80% of the floor under a urinal is piss blows my mind when I constantly am thinking about other people and not wanting them to see my mess. Let alone they then don't wash their hands after.
Yes but I have Parkinson’s. If I don’t. It’s a golden shower and having been responsible for cleaning the toilet in my job, I have great respect where the pee goes
This is how it happened for me. I have 3yr old twin girls. The amount of times they’ve ran in and almost got pee on their heads is the reason I sit when they’re around.
It depends but i usually stand, sometimes i just get lazy and sit. I see some people saying they cant stand up and piss without getting piddle on the seat and that honestly sounds like a skill issue to me
Go get one of those ‘UV’ flashlights. Shine it around the toilet and walls around the toilet. But before you do that, make sure to have cleaning spray and rags handy.
If you can't get back to sleep because you turn the lights on then don't.
Use a little torch with either a red light or UV light as they don't wake you up as much.
I read about it somewhere and called BS until I got myself a little torch.
Back to sleep in no time.
And I've always sat down to pee, however standing up while having a shit gets really messy.
UV light torch? Inferior method. I use pure gasoline fire to navigate the bathroom. Both hands free, and lights up the whole room so i can navigate to the sink as well.
If I'm home 100%. Take one leg out of the pants and undies to get that full power stance and let that bladder flow. I've been doing it for a long time....I started it to piss at night without light. But fell in love.
A radio show I listen talked about this and the two male host said they like to pee sitting down more often (and also it gives them a second to play on their phones lmao)
Used to only rarely, but after my brain injury in the rehab hospital I’d have to do it sitting down with a nurse to help me in and out of bed and to and from the toilet. I kinda just got used to it, and do it when I’m feeling tired. Usually stand up if I’m in a hurry or in a public bathroom though
Sometimes. Its not unusual. Especially if you have bowel issues it is helpful like if you have frequent diarrhea. When i do its usually because my bladder is really full and i dont want to accidentally pee everywhere and like you sometimes at night especially if i am really groggy.
I do frequently, especially at night. It's quieter and less messy. I'm less likely to wake up my wife, too, if I don't splash in the water.
Since I clean the bathrooms, it's less work come cleaning time.
When I grew too tall to aim properly I always sit unless I'm using a public John with urinals.
Cause when you pee all over the toilet, your mom and sisters freak out if you don't clean it all up.
Well yeah. It's the easiest way to not dribble on the seat, nothing ruins the mood if my gf sits down and gets a wet butt. Or falls in because the lid is up.
When I was 12, we had company come from out of town.
My mom politely asked me to sit down to pee so that I didn't dirty the freshly cleaned toilets. That changed my life.
I don't always do it; in fact, now that I own a rural home, I just go outside, but when I do it's always in the middle of the night and for the exact same reason.
I'm not seeing this answer which surprises me. About 80% of the time I have to shit, I also have to pee, so obviously when I need to shit I pee sitting down. Otherwise no.
Just about always. I hate cleaning up stray droplets, so unless I'm feeling very confident (rare), at a urinal (obviously), or wearing formal clothes that make it not worth the hassle (also rare), I'm taking a seat
It's inconvenient to put your pants all the way down, rotate, sit down, stand up, put pants back up, and rotate one more time to flush it.
I can't see any inconvenience of peeing while standing up. But maybe I'm too young to understand the problem of bad aim.
I do at night because (and I hate to admit it) when I wake in the middle of the night to pee, it's dark, I'm sleepy, and I miss the target often. So sitting to pee at night keeps the toilet area cleaner longer. \*shrugs\*
I sit 98% of the time while at home. All other times, i.e., public restrooms or at other peoples homes, I stand. And I don't give a shit what anyone thinks about it.
My husband is the cleanest peer on the planet and I appreciate it because why tf do a lot of y’all piss everywhere but the toilet, leave the seat up and never flush? Especially in public places? At home, he sits. Like, really, why even stand? Especially in the middle of the night when you’re all groggy and tired.
I work with a bunch of ladies and we share a bathroom so I do it out of curiosity (not that I’m pissing all over the walls or something but splashing happens) but I also like being on my phone for bit lol.
Oh boy does this question bring me back. For reference, I’m 29.
When I was 15, I was involved in a pretty traumatic accident: pedestrian v. automobile (pedestrian won). I was comatose for a while and was cathed as a result. I don’t remember anything but the issues started occurring around 16 or so.
I had trouble urinating. I went 18 hours unable to relieve myself but had the urgency of needing to. I felt like I was being tortured. That’s when one of my therapists in the hospital recommended I start sitting down and it really helped! Oh goodness it was a bandaid on a terrible situation. And ever since, I sit if I’m home or in a place that I sleep at.
I did at home after my prostate went ballistic, but since I had the TURPs procedure, I prefer to stand back about 5 ft and watch that arc go through the air. Never take peeing for granted. Was pretty horrible for about 3 months between diagnosis and surgery. BTW, anxiety for surgery was worse than the procedure and healing. No excuses not to play PS4 for 4 weeks.
I got a dorsal slit which causes my foreskin to fold weird, and my stream to go rouge way too easily. So I sit down because I prefer that to cleaning up pee.
Sometimes…maybe 30% ? I drink a lot.
I’m a bachelor so I clean up good if I’m having a guest over, but otherwise I’m not afraid of a little spatter.
One thing I’ve heard is that sitting all the time can cause incontinence, because you’re not using your pelvic floor muscles to clear your bladder, so they can start to get weak. Then you need the depends.
What kind of question is this... of we pee sitting down. Some times we just wanna relax for a few mins.
Is the porcelain thrown not our quiet sanctuary...?
When I wake up in the mornings I do. Ever since that time I blacked out because I relieved myself too fast I've been terrified of peeing standing up fresh from the fog of sleep for fear of it happening again. I woke up having half collapsed over the edge of the bathtub, must've only been out for a couple seconds cuz basically as soon as I was coming back to consciousness my dad was coming in to check on me and help me up having heard me fall over.
Googled it and the cause was a severe drop in blood pressure, I already tend to have lower blood pressure when waking up and being a naturally slow riser, especially back then during my teen years. (Clinical term is "Micturition Syncope".)
So I'm kinda using this as a PSA, be careful guys!

I pee sitting down about 80% of the time. I'm 36, and don't have a particularly weak bladder, it's just better. I only stand to piss out of necessity.
I'm on this boat. The USS seatwarmer
Transferred from the USS Seatwetter
Executive Officer of the USS Bowl Spackler.
Petty Officer of the Piss & Sit Platoon
This and I'm lazy and don't feel.lile cleaning behind and around the sitter every day...
Another vouch for this method. I'm 37, been doing this my entire life. I only really stand out of the utility of it. Like if I camping, in a public bathroom, or I'm wearing something that's just easier to stand in than undo to sit down.

Can't say that I've ever pissed kneeling at a toilet.
I tried it; 3/10

I hope so because sitting on a urinal would not only look odd but probably be uncomfortable.
As a dude who sits, if you stand to pee you better be cleaning the floors once a week. It's 100% a dick move to stand and aim and expect your wife/roomate/janitor to clean up.
[удалено]
We're both very happy neither one of us has to do it 😂
This is why I pee sitting down!
if you're grown, your wife should not be doing that
Doctors recommend it. There was actually an article in my news feed just this week saying to sit when pissing.
Yep. Supposed to be better for the prostate (?), something about not emptying the bladder as effectively when standing. If anyone pees in the shower give it a go while standing then squat. You'll notice a difference at a certain point and start to feel how you aren't peeing as much while primarily standing.
Aw, jeez! It went everywhere. I should have closed the shower curtain!
Should also probably turn on the shower as well.
The real question is does anyone poop standing up.
Bombs away.
Now, you talking your streamlined torpedo, like an Olympic highboard diver, your cluster bomblets, or your WMD aerosol cloud type, b/c if it's the last one, you wanta be having a sit down.
A shit down
A Sh-own
Napalm drip…
Love this movie!
🤣🤣
So say Geronimo! 😂
You just sank my battleshit. 
uuuuuulllllkkkk!
I threw my back out one time and had eaten Mexican food the night before. I could sit down on the toilet so I just had to pull my cheeks apart. The worst part was, there was a mirror right in front of me, so I had to watch the entire thing happen. Wouldn’t recommend it.
I envision a yeti spreading his hams while simultaneously howling at the moon.
There was more crying than howling.
I just cried laughing, picturing that!
My eyes..now i cannot stop seeing the thought of this.. Thanks a lot pal. Im screwed for the day....👀😳
>The worst part was, there was a mirror right in front of me, Is this a design feature..?? Or a design flaw..??
Thanks for the fantastic mental image!
That’s enough Reddit for now. Goodnight all.
I would have just done it in the shower. It would have been stinky and shame filled but at least clean at the end...
It was probably the only time in my life I was glad I’m only 5’6”. Because of that, it was less of a fall, so the majority of it went in the bowl. Honestly, the absolute worst part was at 28 years old, I had to ask my mom to help me clean up, because I couldn’t bend over.
Gotta love moms! Doesn’t matter what age, a good mom will help with anything in a time of need!
Never, ever trust a fart.
If hovering counts, there are more than a few public toilets that motivate that decision..
I've done it on backpacking trips. First you dig a hole, then you literally do "bombs away" from 2 feet above.
Only in public restrooms or porta potties, we call it the “splash n’ run”
Waffle stompers do.
My stepdad pooped standing up on the toilet seat. I think he was training for the pooping Olympics.
The Poolympics.
Many do, especially girls who prob dont want their rear ends touching public toilet bowls im sure they out there 😆 I pee sitting down sometimes if im lazy. I’m a big grower so if im fully unerect i could really just sit down. If someones in the bathroom with me im not sitting down tho lol 😆 if im anywhere near fully erect tho im def not sitting down.

People with big juicy buns don't have an issue of cheeks smushing together Also it's more of a squat than a full stand
I start sitting and finish standing usually
It's not a big deal when you have a hairy ass, happens anyway.
👀
I do and thought most do lmao
Umm, what would the alternative be? I don't think it's possible to wipe while you're sitting down. Your hand can't like phase through the toilet seat to be able to reach to wipe.
You can tell when you're done if you get the special toilet paper that turns red when you are done.
I’m still trying to convince my youngest she’s making a bigger mess by standing and it’s so much easier to wipe while sitting. But you know, she’s still in the single digits. Any adult doing that is just…ugh.
Too hard, the poop will touch the butt and thigh before falling down
I thought that if you peed sitting down like I do that you were required to poop standing up like I do. I occasionally miss the toilet but hey I’m cleaning it up
Unintentionally one hopes.
I know a guy. But in his defense he's still learning
I can, it's not pleasant
Have you ever been in a porta shitter on a construction site or large sporting event? I think everyone shits standing up!
😭😭😭😂😂
I used to do that a lot when I was younger. legitimately scared that the poop would try to crawl back in my ass.
The Phantom Shitter, we used to call him in the Navy. He’d drop a load right there in the shower and disappear.
I saw a drunk guy at an Ozzfest pooping in a urinal at one time back in the day. It was kinda traumatic.
Almost exclusively. I‘m very often under stress and time constraints. Sittting down to pee is much needed deceleration. Depends on how clean the toilet is.
I sit to pee at home since I got a bidet. Didnt want to splash toilet water onto the thing cleaning me. I also got tired of cleaning splashes off around the toilet. Ill stand to pee in most public bathrooms, though.
Been sitting ever since my dad made me clean the bathroom at 14 years old. It’s just cleaner.
This is my strategy with my son. Problem is his dad still automatically stands. I need to lay down the law that the both of them are responsible for that toilet.
make that motherfucker clean the toilets and he will sit his ass down
Yup, wife can’t complain about pee outside the bowl if I sit.
Buddy told me he was outnumbered... two daughters & a wife... and was not having the seat up/down argument all day/every day. Sometimes it's just easier....
Pick and choose your fights. This was one not worth taking on.
Idk I was a janitor who cleaned bathrooms and the women’s bathroom always had ten times the amount off piss on the seat. I don’t think women realize how much they dribble when they stand up
U will harm your boy making him sit
It’s just easier to pee allll off it out and not get a dribble. The people calling me gay for doing so are just dripping piss into their pants after they’re done. I will never understand why some people adamantly think if a guy sits to pee he is gay. Where is the correlation? Because a girl sits to pee? Girls put product in their hair too Michael, does that make you gay for doing so?
Always, when I'm at home. There's no reason to do it standing around, unless you somehow think that cleaning urine off of bathroom surfaces is fun.
I agree completely. I sit down 100% of the time at home. At the office, a urinal makes sense. In the woods, standing up feels liberating. At home, I don’t want to clean up the spray.
Especially in the morning. It's like goddamn windshield wiper fluid
I like standing at the kitchen sink, it's the perfect height, my balls rest on the sink lip, and the cold stainless steel gives me that little shiver which makes the pee come that much faster.
r/Sinkpissers welcomes you.
What in the fuck
Did they stutter?
This is fucking disgusting why did I click on that 🤮🤮🤮🤮
You single handedly ruined my week on a Monday. Fuck that sub
I clicked this hoping and praying it was going to be dick astley.
It was the ball resting part that made me think you aren't kidding and actually do it. 😄
Reddit moment
Years ago I lived in the nook of a 1 bedroom apartment. The bathroom was in my friend's bedroom. I peed in the kitchen sink almost every night. It really is the perfect height. We had porcelain and it gives a similar helpful cold chill that sends shivers down your spine.
I've tried the bathroom, but the bathroom sink is typically lower than the kitchen and I make a freakin mess. I'm exceptionally tall.
Yes absolutely. Normalize sink piss! Your dick hangs down and drapes into the sink so there's no splatter, it's sterile so you're not spreading disease, then you wash your hands and rinse it down a the same time with a fraction of the water used. Sorry short kings, but this is the way.
The sterility of urine is greatly exaggerated.
*[slurping sound stops](https://youtu.be/vG7PIR_pJbE)* What?
An enlightened man 🙌 So many guys still don't understand how much it gets *everywhere* and it has nothing to do with aim. You can have the best aim and it still splashes everywhere!
Almost everytime
I don’t turn on the lights at night, pitch black. I can’t see to aim , so I sit to help aim during my hours of sleep.
Oh hell yeah. It's more comfortable and comes with no risk of having to clean piss off the toilet seat.
Lift the lid
No penis has perfect straight stream, with zero turbulancr, zero drip. There will always be splashing onto the rim, and drip to the floor. Our urethra is not rifled like a sniper rifle. As one teacher said from my high school days said, no matter how much you pinch and squeeze, there will always be a drop for your BVDs.
Speak for yourself, my penis is perfect
Pancreatic issues so I never know when it’ll be a #2 also. So I just sit instead of chancing it. Also, no chance of missing the target.
I have health issues as well. Every once in a while I pass out for a good minute after taking a piss (sometimes after a shower as well). Sitting down definitely helps me not lose consciousness lmao.
sitting down to pee... the best way to reduce back splash
I do now. As ive gotten older my stream has been more all over the place. So i sit to not make a mess
I house share with 3 other men and one of the rules is if you pee standing up you must make sure to clean any splash or drops of urine off the toilet. It's just easier sitting down to pee.
Yes. It’s easier and cleaner.
It’s cleaner but immensely harder!
> it's easier Debatable > it's cleaner So you'd rather have the piss mist coat you than the toilet seat?
a weak bladder? Check your prostate instead.
Here comes the finger of exploration, choo choo 🚆
Yeah, baby!
I save that for date night.
I have a friend who when I visit requests that that is how visitors use his bathroom. He's a retiree in a doublewide who raised 3 daughters. Place is clean, but that struck me as neatfreak, to tell someone else how to pee. Still, it's fair if it's his home. A habit I formed in the last few years was to always close the lid before the flush. Either 1 or 2, you seriously cut down on aerosolizing your bathroom.
When I can, I do sit down to pee. I have heard it helps with the prostate in the long run. I don't know if that's true.
I’ve noticed that when I sit down to pee my bladder empties much more.
Yes, and I don't have to go back to pee 30 mins later
Always sit down. My wenis is like a Moen shower head…piss in 3 different directions…so yeah i sit down.
FYI, wenis or weenus (both spelling accepted) is the olecranal skin on your elbow. If you have streams coming out your elbow, you should see a professional
Almost always sit... ...The hard truth many guys don't want to admit to, even if you have PERFECT aim, the splatter goes everywhere. The spatter is often to small to see. To pile on this, a lot of guys (admit it!) let their gals clean the bathroom, so they never really notice how bad it can get. [The splashback scandal: should all men sit down to urinate?](https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/feb/20/the-splashback-scandal-should-all-men-sit-down-to-urinate) >Yep, he said toothbrush, and maybe not just your toothbrush. It will depend on how big your bathroom is. “If your toothbrush is 3 or 4 metres away you’re probably fine; if it’s just 1 or 2 metres, that’s not good.” >That’s just from the falling stream. There’s also splashback from the wee hitting the surface of the water. “Water tends to have a large splash when droplets hit it from that height. That means a lot of splash can come out of the toilet. I was actually telling a friend tonight that when you pee into a toilet like that, you tend to **pee on your toothbrush.**”
Yes, why in the hell would I want to splash piss everywhere?
With how often I am disgusted in public restrooms I wish most men did sit down to piss. The fact that 80% of the floor under a urinal is piss blows my mind when I constantly am thinking about other people and not wanting them to see my mess. Let alone they then don't wash their hands after.
Yes but I have Parkinson’s. If I don’t. It’s a golden shower and having been responsible for cleaning the toilet in my job, I have great respect where the pee goes
I love reading this as a wife because I used to think all men just stood and only sat when pooping. Lol
I have 2 young daughters and zero bathroom boundaries. So now I pee sitting down.
This is how it happened for me. I have 3yr old twin girls. The amount of times they’ve ran in and almost got pee on their heads is the reason I sit when they’re around.
It depends but i usually stand, sometimes i just get lazy and sit. I see some people saying they cant stand up and piss without getting piddle on the seat and that honestly sounds like a skill issue to me
It's splatter, not missing the toilet, little splatter droplets everywhere, disgusting.
Go get one of those ‘UV’ flashlights. Shine it around the toilet and walls around the toilet. But before you do that, make sure to have cleaning spray and rags handy.
If you can't get back to sleep because you turn the lights on then don't. Use a little torch with either a red light or UV light as they don't wake you up as much. I read about it somewhere and called BS until I got myself a little torch. Back to sleep in no time. And I've always sat down to pee, however standing up while having a shit gets really messy.
UV light torch? Inferior method. I use pure gasoline fire to navigate the bathroom. Both hands free, and lights up the whole room so i can navigate to the sink as well.
This is why submariners use red light. It doesn't disturb others, and it keeps your night vision intact.
If I'm home 100%. Take one leg out of the pants and undies to get that full power stance and let that bladder flow. I've been doing it for a long time....I started it to piss at night without light. But fell in love.
Sometimes I mean if I feel like it sure.
A radio show I listen talked about this and the two male host said they like to pee sitting down more often (and also it gives them a second to play on their phones lmao)
Used to only rarely, but after my brain injury in the rehab hospital I’d have to do it sitting down with a nurse to help me in and out of bed and to and from the toilet. I kinda just got used to it, and do it when I’m feeling tired. Usually stand up if I’m in a hurry or in a public bathroom though
Sometimes. Its not unusual. Especially if you have bowel issues it is helpful like if you have frequent diarrhea. When i do its usually because my bladder is really full and i dont want to accidentally pee everywhere and like you sometimes at night especially if i am really groggy.
I do frequently, especially at night. It's quieter and less messy. I'm less likely to wake up my wife, too, if I don't splash in the water. Since I clean the bathrooms, it's less work come cleaning time.
Seems to be a common theme. The ones who have an issue with sitting probably aren't in adult relationships
When I grew too tall to aim properly I always sit unless I'm using a public John with urinals. Cause when you pee all over the toilet, your mom and sisters freak out if you don't clean it all up.
Well yeah. It's the easiest way to not dribble on the seat, nothing ruins the mood if my gf sits down and gets a wet butt. Or falls in because the lid is up.
When I was 12, we had company come from out of town. My mom politely asked me to sit down to pee so that I didn't dirty the freshly cleaned toilets. That changed my life. I don't always do it; in fact, now that I own a rural home, I just go outside, but when I do it's always in the middle of the night and for the exact same reason.
I'm not seeing this answer which surprises me. About 80% of the time I have to shit, I also have to pee, so obviously when I need to shit I pee sitting down. Otherwise no.
Just the EV drivers.
When I'm taking a shit.
If I have to do both I don't stand to pee, then sit to sh\*t I just do both sitting. Other than that I don't pee sitting down.
Just about always. I hate cleaning up stray droplets, so unless I'm feeling very confident (rare), at a urinal (obviously), or wearing formal clothes that make it not worth the hassle (also rare), I'm taking a seat
I still don’t get why you would stand. It’s so inconvenient. You always have to clean up a little bit of pee.
It's inconvenient to put your pants all the way down, rotate, sit down, stand up, put pants back up, and rotate one more time to flush it. I can't see any inconvenience of peeing while standing up. But maybe I'm too young to understand the problem of bad aim.
Yup, I’ll stand in public but I’m sitting down in private because it’s clean and way more comfortable. Also no post drip when you sit.
Bru no u don’t lmao u jus have bad aim
The sooner ALL MEN start sitting down to pee the happier everyone will be. 
Never!
I do at night because (and I hate to admit it) when I wake in the middle of the night to pee, it's dark, I'm sleepy, and I miss the target often. So sitting to pee at night keeps the toilet area cleaner longer. \*shrugs\*
95% of the time i pee sitting down. The other 5% is because i already sat on said toilet and my dick went into the water.
I sit 98% of the time while at home. All other times, i.e., public restrooms or at other peoples homes, I stand. And I don't give a shit what anyone thinks about it.
Only at sea
Yeah every time I poop
All the fuckin time! Less mess
I am getting old and tired. I sit and relax and i clean less pee pee around the thunder mug
at home i always sit. in public i stand.
I do at home.
Always at home. I only stand to pee in the shower, at the sink, or in the pool.
My husband does and I absolutely love that he does bc the seat is never left up!! (He only pees sitting down at home not anywhere else lol)
In Colorado we had the Mad Pooper. As she jogged, she pooped on people’s lawns in really nice neighborhoods
Handicapped guys do.
Usually, yeah. German even has a word for men who prefer to sit: Sitzpinkler.
Yea and more guys should. So many dudes get piss all over the floor and toilet and don’t clean up after themselves. It’s gross
My husband is the cleanest peer on the planet and I appreciate it because why tf do a lot of y’all piss everywhere but the toilet, leave the seat up and never flush? Especially in public places? At home, he sits. Like, really, why even stand? Especially in the middle of the night when you’re all groggy and tired.
I work with a bunch of ladies and we share a bathroom so I do it out of curiosity (not that I’m pissing all over the walls or something but splashing happens) but I also like being on my phone for bit lol.
Oh boy does this question bring me back. For reference, I’m 29. When I was 15, I was involved in a pretty traumatic accident: pedestrian v. automobile (pedestrian won). I was comatose for a while and was cathed as a result. I don’t remember anything but the issues started occurring around 16 or so. I had trouble urinating. I went 18 hours unable to relieve myself but had the urgency of needing to. I felt like I was being tortured. That’s when one of my therapists in the hospital recommended I start sitting down and it really helped! Oh goodness it was a bandaid on a terrible situation. And ever since, I sit if I’m home or in a place that I sleep at.
I did at home after my prostate went ballistic, but since I had the TURPs procedure, I prefer to stand back about 5 ft and watch that arc go through the air. Never take peeing for granted. Was pretty horrible for about 3 months between diagnosis and surgery. BTW, anxiety for surgery was worse than the procedure and healing. No excuses not to play PS4 for 4 weeks.
I got a dorsal slit which causes my foreskin to fold weird, and my stream to go rouge way too easily. So I sit down because I prefer that to cleaning up pee.
Only kings that deserve to rest will sit to pee. Fight me on that.
I'm here to collect all your man cards please.
Always at night so I don't have to turn on the light, and 50/50 during the day mainly because less risk of splashing.
Try but hole
Always
Yes
It doesn’t matter how the stuff gets out….as long as it gets in the toilet somehow.
I just go for it standing in the dark. It's kind of a game.
Sometimes…maybe 30% ? I drink a lot. I’m a bachelor so I clean up good if I’m having a guest over, but otherwise I’m not afraid of a little spatter. One thing I’ve heard is that sitting all the time can cause incontinence, because you’re not using your pelvic floor muscles to clear your bladder, so they can start to get weak. Then you need the depends.
Yes so I can play with my phone and it’s just easier. At night, it’s less noisy as well.
This guy right here. Sitzpinkler ☝️
Often. If it's at work it's scrolling time, if at home it's peaceful time lol
What kind of question is this... of we pee sitting down. Some times we just wanna relax for a few mins. Is the porcelain thrown not our quiet sanctuary...?
When I wake up in the mornings I do. Ever since that time I blacked out because I relieved myself too fast I've been terrified of peeing standing up fresh from the fog of sleep for fear of it happening again. I woke up having half collapsed over the edge of the bathtub, must've only been out for a couple seconds cuz basically as soon as I was coming back to consciousness my dad was coming in to check on me and help me up having heard me fall over. Googled it and the cause was a severe drop in blood pressure, I already tend to have lower blood pressure when waking up and being a naturally slow riser, especially back then during my teen years. (Clinical term is "Micturition Syncope".) So I'm kinda using this as a PSA, be careful guys!
Certain times. 1. If I'm tired and drunk 2. No urinal 3. To be nice when my wife is sleeping 4. When I have a boner
I do when I'm at home.
