>For the bathroom, I (a man) peed sitting down. I’m not ashamed to admit it. Rather the opposite, we (men) should be ashamed to pee standing up into anything that's not a urinal, it's gross. Also, relatedly, we should LISTEN when our cohabitants tell us any of that.

There is significant country-to-country variation in how common this is. Germany is a world leader in percentage of sitzpinklers. https://yougov.co.uk/society/articles/45713-where-world-are-men-most-likely-sit-down-wee https://yougov.co.uk/society/articles/45713-where-world-are-...

What exactly are you saying is gross? Peeing on the seat or floor is certainly gross, but I've seen more of that done by women (presumably due to "hovering") than men.

Who cares if you live alone and its your toilet?

  Check the floor around your toilet. It's bound to be sprinkled with urine.

Peeing into a urinal is pretty gross too. There is definitely splash back.
