I've quite recently made a change to sitting down to pee instead of the usual point and shoot and I can't believe I haven't earlier. It's quieter, more comfortable and completely avoids any potential mess from split streams or spraying. Standing does have its place and can be more convenient in certain scenarios but I don't think it should be standard for penis-havers. Do people think it's gay or something?

Thoughts and feelings would be appreciated and will advance the piss discourse of the site.

dean-frown peeing sitting down

dean-smile shitting standing up

This but semi-ironically. Squatting is the natural and therefore easiest position to shit. We make it harder for ourselves and cause more rectal issues by sitting.

Dangers of sitting:

  • If it's cold, it can be a shock to the rear
  • Peepee can touch porcelain bowl, cold/moist/gross
  • Peeing between seat and bowl can happen accidentally and insidiously. Soaked pants/socks + pain to clean up.
  • If not in your own house / have awful housemates, touching gross things like toilet seats

I say this as a dedicated sit-downer wherever possible. I find it preferable, but when you're groggily wiping a pool of pee off the floor at 1am, you realise it's not a promised pee land.

This one is a big bummer when it happens, but as you say it's still worth defaulting to sitting.

You are correct, and it is good to see the pisscourse continue to be elevated.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

It's important to have a materialist approach to the pisscourse

[–] [email protected] 24 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Pissing while sitting down is dangerous for me because my dick doesnt naturally point down into the toilet bowl, instead pointing forward and posing a serious splash hazard to my pants. This can be remedied by leaning forward a bit instead of leaning back, but Ive been burned one too many times and just pee standing up. Besides peeing while standing up just feels better, more liberating.

Are you peeing with a boner?

Also I don't see how it would splash onto your pants even if that were true

[–] [email protected] 22 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It can happen especially if you are a "grower" rather than a "shower" . The unerect peen can be so small as to resemble a micro-penis and just kind of point forward between the seat and the bowl. This can be made much worse by cold weather or certain medication such as stimulants.

The size difference in some growers is quite remarkable.

interesting

where do we list our dick sizes

back in my day we told everyone to post hog, but wokeness has killed our culture

[–] [email protected] 19 points 8 months ago (3 children)

The issue is this website has too many trans girls. If a girl had a bigger hog than me I would be distraught

[–] [email protected] 19 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Too many? You mean not enough. meow-knife-trans

[–] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago (1 children)

No it's okay, you're all good. I was talking about the well-endowed ones

If you click the hamburger, then profile, there's a dick size field. It used to be mandatory, strange you didn't have to fill it in when you made your profile.

Same, but I'd rather risk every so often splashing forward then nearly every time pissing on the wall to the side when the stream suddenly goes sideways.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I used to do professional cleaning, piss gets everywhere, it's goddamn disgusting. Take a damp paper towel and give a single wipe on a wall right next to a toilet, you'll never want to stand to pee again.

That said, sitting to pee is gay, and it's what turned me trans. You've been warned.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago (2 children)

You're right, ever since I made the switch I have an urge to take estrogen and wear thigh high socks

pee splashes around more than most people realize when people pee standing, little droplets go a surprising distance and are definitely getting on the front of your pants

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago

Yeah there's usually a fine mist that gets sprayed around the edge of the bowl too

An ex of mine peed in the sink then washed his dick and the sink it every time. He said his grandmother taught him to do it. He was raised in a very different context. Most saliently where bidets were commonplace. But I doubt this was normal.

He was 100% clean at all times, that was nice.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

I get knocked down, I get knocked down again,

You're never gonna knock me down!

I take a whisky drink, I take a chocolate drink,

And when I have to pee, I use the kitchen sink!

I sing the song that reminds me I'm a urinating guy!

Piss how you wanna piss.

If I try that outside of peak summer, the ambient temperature has my penis pointing between the toilet seat and bowl and creates a huge mess unless I dedicate a hand to pointing it down

[–] [email protected] 19 points 8 months ago (2 children)

I suppose you would have to dedicate a hand while standing as well no?

Some situations do warrant standing up. Examples: Ronald Reagan, Henry Pissinger, Margaret Thatcher, John Voerster, Winston Churchhill, Stepan Bandera, Eli David Kay, Queen Elizabeth II, the Vietnam War Memorial, etc.

My pee stream loves to suddenly go to a side into the wall so I never pee standing anymore. I don't trust my piss.

You can scroll your phone for half an hour if you sit. I would've thought you guys knew this already? Y'all are missing out on so much free time at work.

Although I'm enjoying the sarcastic comments, I do actually do this at night when I can't see anything. It's just way safer than maybe hitting the bowl.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 8 months ago (1 children)

A light would negate the problem with not seeing at night.

As long as you can ensure that you won't miss, peeing standing up is better. When I feel like the stream isn't going to be so simple, I do sit down though, so I'm kind of playing both teams as well.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (4 children)

Sitting makes me feel like I'm getting dirty. With standing you don't touch the toilet at all and as long as you wipe you stay completely clean (and guys should wipe despite it being common not to).

Although a urinal is better for standing and should arguably be included in home bathrooms, at least full bathrooms.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago (2 children)

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but if you pee standing up you are absolutely getting pee on the front of your pants every time as a fine mist.

Do people think it's gay or something?

yes, they do, it's very dumb

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Standing is convenient in the wild, amazing at home, and forbidden in public.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago

Nothing like being in the woods and just sidling up to a tree late at night. I can only imagine the power of pissing off a cliff, but we don’t have those here.
