Sit to pee for all. Solves all problems.
I had a cat that trained me to sit down to pee.
The only time I could ever get her to purr was when when I was sat on the toilet. So, of course, I began sitting down to pee in order to maximise her purring and fusses. And it kinda stuck.
I've been to men's restroom before. I wouldn't sit on that unless extremely necessary. Even then, I'd wipe that ship clean and cover it in toilet paper first
I do wonder if they all sat whether that'd solve it, though. That is, if it'd be cleaner. Or maybe they don't need to sit to keep it clean. Idk
I’ve worked maintenance for many years and I can assure there is no difference between men’s and women’s rest rooms other than there being urinals, they’re all disgusting, we’re all disgusting, all bathrooms are just wild animal shit houses.
From my experience, it depends on where. Malls and things like that where there are many people of all different demographics absolutely are equally disgusting. Semi-private washrooms tend to be less disgusting overall, but women's are usually at least a little cleaner. Standing to pee causes splashes. Enough human traffic and and the whole place smells like a hamster cage that doesn't go away unless the whole damn bathroom is flooded in sanitiser.
Women piss all over toilet seats and floors all the time, even in fancy places, don’t kid yourself. Any bathroom in any location is only as clean as the staff makes it, if left alone every public or semi-private bathroom would be covered in shit and piss within a day and there are no gender lines. I’ve worked at classy joints and dives and if not tended to by staff every toilet will be covered in piss and shit in ways that I personally cannot comprehend. Women’s only toilets get covered in just as much piss and shit as men’s toilets. Most people don’t ever see both restrooms and assume theirs is either cleaner or dirtier than the opposite gender, but as someone who deals with both on a general basis, animal shit houses the lot of them.
Hi. Been in, worked in both. My experience with bathrooms doesn't invalidate yours. Both can be true. Hell, we're probably not in the same country, so social norms can play a factor, and like I said before, demographics make a big difference in a lot of things. Which drug residues are left on the back of the toilet, for example.
I'm sorry you have such strong feelings about people and public bathrooms. It's definitely a shitty experience (pun intended). It's a weird hill to die on though.
Really? I'd expected cleaner. I mean, they sit. I don't know how women pee, honestly. Like, how the flow goes. But I can say from experience peeing into a toilet while standing up can be difficult. Pee, y u no single stream straight into toilet?
I can assure you, sitting down to use the bathroom does not stop people from pissing and shitting all over the place. We’re gross animals.
Does it work the other way around? Does "pissing and shitting all over the place" "stop people from" "sitting down to use the bathroom"?
From my understanding there is a technique called “hover squatting.”
nooooope not putting my cheeks on that unless necessary
seat up, squat a bit, and aim to reduce splash. wipe when done no matter what it looks like
Men that pee standing up (except urinals, or bushes) just like to make their life a tiny bit worse for no reason at all.
At home, yes. Out in the wild? Hell nah. That shi nasty (usually)
Your butt skin is far more robust than you give it credit for.
