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.

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 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 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

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.

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

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.

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..

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. |

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. Last edited by rogue49; 08-23-2003 at 06:28 PM.. |
