The Toilet Seat issue...

Discussion in 'General Chat' started by Stax_Daniel, May 4, 2007.

    I couldn't help but to post this...i just had the weirdest conversation with one of my friends on the phone (we always tend to have really weird ones....lol)...but it ended up coming onto the topic of how 'leaving the toilet seat up' has become such a common 'no-no' in [at least] the American Society....

    not sure how it is everywhere else...(would be interesting to know though)...

    me and my wife have come to a conclusion...i need it up...she need's it down...so we'll compromise...lol...i pick it up, she puts it down...:eek:

    of course then we also talked about wondering when it first became an issue...lol..

    like i said...weird discussion...what do you think on the topic??

    One solution for the house: ONE washroom for the male = seat up
    ONE washroom for the female = seat down :p

    in my house the toilet seat remains down
    I sit to pee, you sit to pee
    if you prefer to stand, you wash the toilet

    pretty simple.

    Once it's in a house and only the same people use it.. it'll become a natural habit to enter the right washroom :D

    any reason you gals don't like to put it down?...too lazy, or too scared you might get pee on your hand?...lol

    slave drivers?
    I don't think so.
    if men would learn to aim better (or at all!)
    it probably wouldn't be an issue

    If you sprinkle when you tinkle be a sweetie & wipe the seatie :D

    A bit one sided eh? You lift the seat when you are done (so I won't pee on it), I'll put it down when I'm done (so you don't sit on the rim in the middle of the night) ;)

    I touch it once, you touch it once.

    Compromise should be the key to any relationship.

    really it is not the up or down issue that is the problem
    when (most) men pee standing up they shake their bits afterwards
    instead of using toilet paper
    it gets on the walls, the floors and yes, the toilet seat
    if you're sitting down and you shake it, it's mostly contained within the toilet
    it's a hygiene issue, plain and simple

    as I said, I have no real big "issue" with it
    if you prefer to not listen to this reasoning and stand instead - YOU wash the bathroom
    it's not an unfair prospect

    simply lifting or lowering the lid is not an issue

    Yes, that is right. But some ppl cannot be trained so you have to go with the flow. Opera had this issue on her program once and to include the toilet has less germ than your kitchen sink and counter. Go figure!:eek:
