just sit down. nobody will know, except your bathroom will be cleaner, you will be cleaning less and gfs will consider you more civilized.
also, both hands free for phone.
- shipman05 1y agoYeah. I joined the sit-to-pee club after I started having to clean my own bathroom and toilet. It really is a win-win-win
- UberFly 1y agoAgreed. I have a wife and two daughters. Out of respect for them I sit (or camp hover) and thus they don't have to wade through my piss splatter. Even if I lived by myself I'd still do it for the sake of not wanting my pee all over my own bathroom.

- wruza 1y agoalso, both hands free for phone That really depends on the design at both sides. Edit: Otherwise, it's a civilized way to do it and nothing to be ashamed of. Men who think it's not manly can go clean their toilet again.
- xboxnolifes 1y ago> just sit down. nobody will know... People don't stand pee because of some sense of masculinity or something. It's just more convenient.
- xboxnolifes 1y ago> just sit down. nobody will know... People don't pee standing because of some sense of masculinity or something. It's just more convenient. Only those over 50 or so by now grew up with that stigma.
- tgsovlerkhgsel 1y agoIt's only more convenient if someone else does the cleaning.
- xboxnolifes 1y agoWithout being too crude, there's still cleaning to be done even after sitting down. Body hair doesn't pick itself up.
- fsckboy 1y agoeven in spring with my winter coat, i don't shed much, but your point is well taken
- fsckboy 1y agounless the flag of this enlightened masculinity you are flying means "real men leave the door open", it is still true, nobody will know.
- xboxnolifes 1y agoThere's no flag. Saying "nobody will know" in thus context implies that one would care if they did know. Thus, my response.
- n8cpdx 1y agoStanding is drastically more time efficient. You just have to look at the snaking queues at the women’s restroom compared to the men’s in any particularly busy public space. Who wants to bother with undoing their pants just to pee?
- globular-toast 1y agoI have a theory that it's much worse now in smartphone world. But I don't suppose anyone studied the queue lengths pre-smartphone.
- fmxsh 1y agoAnd... Try having a stool, like a one-step folding stool under the feet while sitting. Drastically changes the experience for the better while sitting. There was a post on HN long time ago on it with research on it. It aligns more with how the body is designed to preform the other need for elimination, and my suspicion is it applies to the first category of elimination too.
