  1. What is going on here? Maybe old age? I don’t know many guys who openly state they sit down when just peeing.

  2. When you’re not in a rush, it’s just more confortable and less messy.

    What’s the problem with that ?

  3. The scariest thing is that there are actually men who, in some strange way, think for real that standing or sitting down to pee will affect your manhood.

    I sit down and pee as it minimizes pee and bacteria splashing up, is more comfortable and it empties the bladder better.
    And of course I close the toilet lid *before* flushing.

  4. I sometimes sit when urinating in the mornings. The reason is that, urine wakes me up early and I feel that I need to pee immediately and also my penis gets fully erected after I woke up so aiming becomes difficult as hell and I may cause some mess. But if you sit and urinate, it is much easier.

    Besides that reason, I never sit and urinate.

  5. When you get to be a certain age it’s just precautionary, because you never quite know how the experience might unfold.

  6. Sitting on the toilet right now, was thinking of taking a dump, but it ended up being piss only. So far so good.

  7. My dick is too long to sit comfortably while peeing. It causes a mess when you have like 2 cm between dick and toilet and lots of pressure.

    I have to clean the toilet, so my girl is fine with it.

  8. I stand most of the time. I see comments about mess but I don’t really get it, maybe it’s because I’m the only guy in my household but my toilet is still relatively clean when I clean the bathroom at the end of the week. The stream goes into the well and bubbles and makes a satisfying sound, it doesn’t splash. Only times I get splash are if I hit porcelain.

  9. I’d rather pee standing up and then wipe a paper with bleach in the toilet, rather than pee sitting down and then have to wash the splashes off on my ass.

  10. Maybe I’m the rebel free spirit here but sit? Stand? Depends on how I feel at that particular moment. (Or if I have a good video on my phone)

  11. When I moved to Austria I joked with a neighbor that the photo above his toilet was nice to look at while urinating.

    He was appauled that I was standing up to pee.

    Since then I sit.

    I also have house shoes.

  12. At home – sink
    Visiting others – sitting down

    Peeing standing is fun outside where grass or bushes prevent sprinkling.

    If you pee standing while visiting someone you’re an uncultured swine. And no, it’s not manly to pee standing or feminine to sit down. IT’S ALL ABOUT HYGIENE AND KEEPING IT CLEAN

    ALSO FOR FUCKS SAKE PULL YOUR FORESKIN BACK AS WELL IF YOU HAVE ONE

  13. I always sat down as a kid and my dad gave me such crap over it once when he found out, it was as if I came out as gay to him right there and then. Boys in school were also saying that only homos peed sitting down.

    I still do it as it just feels better for me personally, so get off my jock. People attach machismo to the oddest things.

    Edit: obviously I stand in public toilets.

  14. I didn’t sit to pee until I got kidney stones during the pandemic. The pain would buckle my knees it was so intense, so sitting down to pee not only allowed me to curl in pain without collapsing on the floor, but also it empties your bladder better.

    Now, it still hurts to pee but the ghosts of my kidney stones still intimidate me enough to sit down.

    It’s also a lot more comfortable.

    I find it hilarious/sad/pitiful that some men use it as a evaluating point for masculinity.
