Peeing at Night
 

The thread about peeing in the shower reminded me of this question I was posed at a recent bachelor party that turned co-ed. Somehow a small group got on the subject (women started it of course) regarding whether the guys pee standing up or sitting down when they get up at night to take a leak. I doubted this should have even been asked all men pee standing up -- always.

Much to my dismay the score was 3 to 12 against. I was in the minority.. Most men at the party sit down at night. I though that’s what walls were for. To lean upon so you know where you were. That and fuzzy seat covers were to absorb everything in case you forgot to raise the seat.

Anyways just wondering what everyone else does.. Am I the strange one or do most guys take the plunge and squat at night.

Is your insistence that men "always" pee standing up based on some fear that sitting down to pee is unmanly?

I sit down if it's convenient. This can be the case if it's dark, I'm drunk, or have a boner (yeah, try peeing standing up then!).

Peeing while standing up is a great convenience, especially in public; it's not a social doctrine.

Always stand, why spend the time sitting?

I had always assumed all guys peed standing up. I really had never even thoguht about it at all. But when asked about it, it questioned my belief system. Not a major belief or even life changing in the slightest form, but just soemthing that I knew was a certain way all my life. And I was wrong.

I actually like being challengend on what I believe is the norm, Like ot have myself reminded that other opinions exist, other ways. I'm a very openminded person. It was just an interesting observation that caused me to think.

Standing is incredibly convenient. Lord knows what you'll end up sitting on at a party. Standing all the time for me.

i always stand un less im already on the pot going number 2 then its just easier

Re: Peeing at Night
 

I walked in on someone squating instead of standing (several different times -- when will people learn to close the door), so you can add that to the score.

Also... Ew! I am never touching another fuzzy seat cover again.

haha!

i know this guy (who´s got a bit of a wee fixation) - who just rolls over, and pisses off the side of his bed, onto the ground.

hes also pissed in the corner of a room in a mutual friends house.

as for me, well i usually stand, but if i´m pissed, i sit.

I don't get how you can pee sitting with a boner... whenever I try doing that, it pokes against the bottom of the front of the seat or against the inside of the toilet. And it's uncomfortable pushing it down into the bowl... I just let it die down first. :p

When I'm tired, too exhausted to stand, or it's dark and I don't want to miss, I sit and do my business. In all other cases or when I'm out of my house, I always stand.

I stand when I pee in the morning, and at night. If I sat when I peed at night, I'd probably fall asleep on the john, lol

i ALWAYS stand when i'm peeing (i dont think i've ever sit down just to pee in my whole life).

anyway, it's all about aiming!

Hell, if I sat then I would NEVER improve my aim.

Turn the fucking light on, and remain standing....at least thats what i do, then u can see where ur aiming. The only time id sit is the boner issue, or lack of light.

Because I'm really lazy :)

I always pee standing up, except when it is more convenient to sit down (because for some reason or other, I will have difficulty aiming).

There was this one time when I burned my cornea and the doctor blinded me for three days... I just had to sit.... Hmm, this makes me think: Can blind men pee standing up (without misssing the toilet, of course)?

I tried peeing while seated but my dick keeps pointing upwards so I'd have to push it down sometimes hitting the toilet seat.

I sit down at home because I never walk into the bathroom without something to read, and if I do, we have a magazine rack with everything we're subscribed to sitting right there. I actually have magazines in the rack from as far back as '91

i always always stand up... sitting down to pee just seems so odd to me.. not un-manly really... just.. strange...

At night, i do sit.

reminds me of once at night, i woke up to piss, but i was really only half awake, half sleepwalking, and i pissed standing up




into a trash can

Nizzle you can't sit and pee with a boner! it doesn't fit! unless you're a little boy....
never ever sit... junior hates being dunked in the tank! For you guys that do sit...just curious...why? thats more work!

oh yeah, when I do sit to shit some some reason I also take my pants completly off :crazy:

Friday fukin night and you guys are talking about pissing.....and I'm fukin reading about it...........GOD HELP US ALL!!:D :lol: :D

Yes, that's what walls are for. But women always seem to put something in front of the toilet (a towel rack, picture, etc.) that prevents the tripod approach to nocturnal urination. I usually just end up sitting down so I don't have to wake up enough to see where I am aiming, or to stand.

If it's dark, turn the light on
If you have a boner, it gives u better aim

Why sit down? you can lay down when you get back in bed!

I always stand. Though sitting eliminates the risk of the dreaded "V-Pee."

I usually always stand...But there have been a few odd times I sat down...Must have been in the middle of the night when I woke up or something.

Nonsense. If you sit all the way back, and bend over completely, you can pull it off. Don't give me no, "well MY penis is 2 feet long, so I can't!" posturing. It's possible, just not pleasant. But presumably if you have to pee bad enough, it's a fate worth suffering.

I mostly sit... just more comfortable. I stand at urinals. I stand at dirty toilets and I stand when I'm pissing on your sister. ;)

ROFL the "v-pee"

That is something very dangerous!!!

hahaha, that's more like a sex position than a position for peeing.

so, you take a magazine to the bathroom when you just wanna pee?

Same here.

I never hesitate to sit if I know the toilet is clean. I just figure that standing up has a high risk of splatter fallout and I really hate it when *I* have to clean up my friends piss off of my toilet..

I always stand - my aim and my night vision are good enough that I haven't missed yet :D

For the most part I agree with that, but I think that if you go somewhere where they have large crowds (baseball game, crowded bar, etc), there is a bit of a societal expectation aspect involved. But in your own home, do whatever is easiest.

My girlfriend is from Germany and she tried to get me to sit while peeing. I had never heard of such a thing. Apparently her son and all her previous boyfriends were "trained" to do so.

She even went so far as to tape paper towels to the walls around the toilet to show how much piss is splattered.

I haven't quite learned to do it yet.:o

In the middle of the night, almost always SITTING DOWN. This way, you don't have to turn on the light, which only wakes you up more and hurts and you get back to bed easier...

Piss STANDING UP!, gives the bitch something to do the next day :)!

just reread this and realised I was so sexist.

I will of course change how I behave for a woman!. I will from now on piss sitting down, in fact I shall now squat, just in case my current position on this agenda offends ladies.

I think I piss standing up probably 99.9% of the time. I cant remember in recent history when I've sat down to take a piss.

This guy stands tall.

Besides if I sit with that thing as it is,
I couldn't get it in the toilet.

I find it funny, that you have to lend over the toilet,
holding yourself with one arm against the wall,
just so you can get it to point down to an angle that will hit the water.

Sometimes even when I take a shit, I have to stand up afterwards,
just to get it to pee.

Sitting just isn't for me.

I always stand unless i've had way to much to drink. In that case the fall is much shorter when sitting :)
