50/50 consensus in the office. Some women think it's weird that men do it.

I'm in the yes camp.

*this doesn't include public toilets, obviously. That would be rank.)

Used to while away a quiet shift at the switchgear factory with the odd sit down piss

I read somewhere that this (sitting) is the norm in some Nordic countries and that standing up and peeing at someones house is considered out of order.

Certainly did sit down wees when visiting my friend in Germany. They seem to be heading that way.

In German a sitzpinkler is a wimp who needs to MTFU . True fact.

I don't go for a wee. I go for a sit down and a break from the kids. While I'm there I often have a wee too of course.

A German friend (living in the UK) had a "sit down to wee" instruction sticker on her toilet.

I found the emasculation hard to take but y'know, it was only for a couple of weeks and I could do stand ups in the pubs to revive my manliness. Tough fortnight, but I came back intact...just.

Only for a stealth wee, but that involves not flushing either as that's hardly stealthy. I bet them Germans wouldn't like that either.

I've had the pleasure of building site portaloos for the last 3 weeks. I went in there for a wee the other day (obvs never a sit down in a portaloo). And yes, there on (what passes for the) rim were two big muddy bootprints. 😀

Definitely sit down; I share the cleaning in our house and I'm always shocked at the amount of splashback that needs cleaning off the floor and walls and pan. A WC pan is not designed for blokes to use standing up, which is why we have a home urinal in our downstairs bog, complete with aiming fly.

As the toilet cleaner in my house it makes sense not to splash piss all over the place.

Sometimes sit down. Until about 5 years ago it had genuinely never occurred to me to do so until an ex suggested it!
Works well when staggering to the loo in the middle of the night.

Always sit at home. Often do at work too (where the bogs are clean).
Wouldn't in a pub or other public toilet.

Just seems more sanitary to sit. There is way too much splashback from urinals or toilets, and too much chance of misfire or dribble when using the pan.

Plus if you sit you can:
- dry the tip with paper to avoid the dreaded "wet penny" look
- upgrade to a poo if the mood takes you
- reply to silly threads on Singletrack on your phone without looking like you are trying to Instagram your cock.

At home, pretty much always sitty-downy unless I'm off out for a ride & have bibshorts on

At work, whatever's available (1 sitter, 1 urinal and very often at least one other person in there)

I like not having to bother with aiming but it actually started when my kids were young - one of them once tried to catch the stream 😀

(oh, and our work urinal is actually designed to redistribute all piss back out onto your trousers - everybody stands with their feet as far apart as they can get them and tries to pee slowly)

It has never crossed my mind to sit, nor was I taught to sit by my dad when I was a nipper. Instead I was taught the importance of a good aim. How are you supposed pass this important life lesson on if you are a sitter?? 😀

Only at night in the semi-dark, when aiming is more difficult, especially with a semi.

I was astounded in ****stan to see men squatting to pee in the open air, not standing up.

Middle of the night peeing is done standing. I do it by sound.

PMSL

Standing or sitting?

Of late I've taken to sitting down for a wee first thing in a morning because I'm not what you'd call a morning person and after I've just fallen out of bed I'm like I've just had six pints (both mentally and in terms of urinating like a carthorse). I wish I'd thought of it years ago.

dry the tip with paper

Unnecessary in my experience - most people I associate with place a small towel on a small hook somewhere in the bathroom for a chap to dry the end of his chap on.

For the men on the forum

Do you aim at the water , or just off to the side?

Water = 100% on target but noisy and girls might not approve

Porcelin shots = Stealth weeing , potential misfiring , challenge to get close to the edge without splashdown

long time ago my Mrs went to see the chippendales in doncaster
The bogs were all full of girls so they went to the gents instead. Was a queue there too, so they waited. One lass decided she was going to get on a urinal like ^ that, but first she had to take off her jumpsuit, so pretty much naked

Bouncer* walked in as she was half way through** 😯 😀

*sadly, not the labrador from neighbours

** Not sure if he was unemasculated "man" enough to carry on next to her

I tend to sit as I haven't mastered how to read email, aim and keep hitting the target (I tend to be laughing at the emails so I'm not standing still)...in that situation it is far more dignified.
However, judging by the state of the toilets in the office, I'm pretty sure everyone else checking their emails and laughing are doing it standing up as the floor appears to be the target for them all!

I have sat down to pee, but only when very very drunk and there was concern that I may shit myself. Otherwise never!

Pissing stood up, either into the toilet, or the sink is bastion of what it is to be male.

I have a female friend who wees standing up. It's a sight to behold

I was at a Bon Jovi gig once and the urinal next to me was taken by a young lady who had realised that the queue for the gents was much quicker.

She got a round of applause when she'd finished from the guys in the queue behind her. Didn't wash her hands afterwards though, dirty cow.

Well you can, but it's a little awkward at a urinal.
And even at a pan it takes a fair bit of dexterity to tear off a sheet of bog roll one-handed.

PMSL (at the emasculated blokes above)

What is it that is considered manly (unemasculated?) about lightly sprinkling your trousers in your own piss?

And before anyone denies splashback or misfires, why does pretty much every public urinal have a big puddle of piss under it?

I too was grinning at all the "emasculated" comments.

I sit down when I feel like it, it's just plain easier, requires less concentration, saves on the cleaning and allows surfing/reading of emails/whatever.

I don't feel remotely emasculated by this, fwiw.

Just been for a sit-down wee. Thought there was turtle tail for a second, but I think it was just a brief prolapse before it sucked itself back in. Came down to the fridge for a beer but I thought "**** it..." so I've gone for a Baileys on ice instead. Emasculation is complete.

Works well when staggering to the loo in the middle of the night.

It had never occurred to me to sit down to piss until one night in my mid-twenties when I staggered to the bog after a long night out, had a wazz, and promptly passed out, smashing my head on the sink on the way down. Massive bump and cut on my forehead didn't help the hangover the next day. I have pretty low blood pressure anyway (still get orthotstatic hypotension) and the combined effect of drinking lots and then peeing out a huge volume of fluid apparently reduced the pressure inside my skin sufficiently to cut off the blood-supply to my brain enough to knock me out cold.

Since then I tend to sit down when I go to the bog after a night on the beers, or first thing in the morning, mostly to avoid passing out and hitting the fittings on the way down.

A lad I went to university with always had too. He had a Prince Albert fitted (I know this as he showed everyone he could, with regular monotony). An unfortunate side effect was it reduced the directionality somewhat and was more like a sprinkler.

Well that's caused by people who stand far enough back to avoid splashback. If you arch your back a little you create a suitable trajectory, and all but the underpowered dregs at the end make it across. The edge of the puddle of piss provides the oche.

I sit down at home, because I clean the bathroom. It's not about aim, it's about the fine urine haze that coats everything surrounding the throne (including the pee-er) in piss over a period of time, if regular standing up peeing is carried out. Most revolting. Having come to this realisation, I would also sit down in friends houses too, so long as a cleaning regime was in evidence. It's a respect thing, not a manliness thing.

Inside - increasingly when upstairs but not down. Mrs THM oddly disconcerted by sitting idea

Outside - always stand in the garden

As an aside, never eat food spilt on your trouser legs. Once you pee at a urinal in shorts and realise the extent of the splash back life is never the same again....
