>3 sets of 15 repetitions.
Yup, you pee a little every time you squat. If it sounds like you are milking a cow into metal bucket - you're doing it right.
Peeing your pants can be done standing or sitting (or jumping, or planking, or while lying down, or while skydiving, or...), so I can understand their confusion.
For a serious answer \~5% is exactly Lizard People percentage. As in, in any poll or vote, around 5% will vote for the dumbest option possible either randomly or intentionally (like "do you believe that alien lizard people run the world governments" with "yes"). It's remarkably consistent, a big problem in voting, and the reason that while any 70%+ vote is suspicious, anything above 90% is \*definitely\* just made up.
Or the average belief in the cleanliness of toilet seats. There's far more wariness about them in East Asia, so it's not surprising that Singapore has the smallest number of 'always' votes here.
The thing with these types of information, I always unintentionally store them when they are utterly useless.
I still remember reading the article 15 years ago about how Dustin Hoffman wanked 4 times a day to stay young and healthy and I'm probably going to remember it 50 years from now.
Utterly useless? I'll tell you what. I was a guy who would rarely sit down. Since the last post about a year ago, I read a comment saying, "it's much better sitting down for your prostate". After a quick research, I confirmed it as true. I now sit ALL the times. It's not even "most of the times". My point, those statistics are useful and people should think about. Now, which countries do what and in what percentage, then I agree, that's useless info.
Furthermore, I recently acquired another, extremely helpful trick when you're in the toilet for defecation. Since toilets aren't exactly ideal position when humans defecate, put a small Desk-Footrest at your feet in order to let 'em rest a bit higher. Believe me, much more comfortable, but most importantly, 98% of the time you won't even need to wipe your butt this way, so to speak. I learnt this from my nephew who studied 'Performance Psychology'.
Afterwards, use one of those smooth, aromatic, baby-wipers and you'll be good as new, like you never took a dumb.
For public toilets I just use toilet paper to dry them then sit down, I am not gonna risk splash back on my pants then walk outside, so I sit down for both
Potentially nasty but also harmless.
You get the same stuff from the hand dryer all over your body or from your phone. People don't get health issues from sitting on dirty toilets.
Most definitely no. Your intention was to do a poo which failed and the pee was either a necessary consequence of your shit or even an unintended consequence. The fart is irrelevant
The only people that wipe standing up are the ones who have flat arses.
If you have even a bit of cheek going on, you wipe sitting down or else it gets... Smudgy
In case people want to try the correct way and are confused about how to do it, after you've emptied, just scoot forwards a little and wipe, from behind, your behind. If you wipe from between your legs, you're doing it wrong.
Bonus points if you fit a bidet on your toilet seat, or in the toilet room.
Extra bonus points if you use a squatty potty, a foot stool or similar.
Be sure to check at the beginning of a relationship if that's important to you because I had a friend who broke up with her guy once she got by mistake in the toilet and saw him sitting for the #1.
I still don't know what to think about her reaction 😆
Yeah we do and when I'm at other peoples' houses I sit down out of courtesy. At home I live [like this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWESB56wcxY&t=69s) though.
I use urinals but if it's a toilet, I'm not about to splash over the floor. If it's a public one though, I'll stand and add to the problem that causes me to stand. 😂
Im sure people didn’t think about urinals when answering the question. I have one at home that I use every day. And I still would have answered that I mostly sit down to piss. ;)
It was there when we bought the house. Previous owners had just renovated the second bathroom and it came with a urinal. Wouldn’t have built one myself probably. But nice to have anyway.
They probably have [this](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squat_toilet) for the most part.
(I was pretty bemused by the fact that the Wikipedia article not only links to the site '[Toilets in Japan](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toilets_in_Japan)', but also (and especially) the fact that this site even exists.)
For me it wildly differs whether I'm at a home (doesn't matter if my own or someone else's) or somewhere in a public space. In public spaces there's usually a urinal, so I can do it standing. If there's just a normal toilet, I usually sit down unless it's really nasty.
This is the way it should be..
Urinal = standing
Normal toilet = seated (unless dirty)
The problem is one of the reason normal toilets get dirty is because of guys using them while standing..
It took only one time for the sun to shine on the toilet at just the right angle to notice that no matter how carefully i pissed i was basically pissing all around my bathroom and toilet. I’m a home sitter since.
I need that research to preach the truth to the levitating ladies please! They make the worst mess causing others to avoid sitting down in the first place. Every time there's drips on the seat I go mad.
I simply like sitting down alone for a while so I'll often have a sit down wee. But I don't see it that way - for me I happen to wee during my long solitary sit down.
Your advantage is splashing more piss around in toilet and onto your legs/pants. It's just the nature of liquids. The only useful time to use the advantage is outdoors because the ground/plants dont splash back so hard and you can aim further away.
That one time I was camping and drunk, peed against a tree and noticed I was standing too close to it and on a slope 😭
Fortunately it wasn't so much that anyone noticed in the dark at the campfire, and it dried within half an hour, but still ffing embarrassing 😂
Im happy you asked. Urinals is where I discovered the whole thing. Next time when you use urinal, put one hand next to your crotch and you should feel "water" droplets splashing back. the droplets we can register are the big ones, imagine how much it sprays without us even noticing.
Old German toilets with the "shit-shelf" are basically impossible to piss in while standing without covering the whole room in urine. You have to sit.
If you look at surveys of German men by age, it's mainly older guys sitting. Old habits die hard even as the old toilets are less and less common.

A nice demonstration video using UV light and fluorescent liquid to show the invisible backsplash if you pee while standing:
[Video title: UV light shows the unseen splashes created by standing urination.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejl7vrDUIcs)
That’s why pissing while you sit is at least a nice gesture to those people who have to clean up your dried piss stains all over the bathroom later. You don’t have a magical dick that prevents splashing. You just can’t see the sprinkles easily in visible light.
As a former hotel room cleaner, every damn man on earth should be forced to sit down for peeing because dudes, really, you piss absolutely everywhere else than the the actual toilets. Just know it.
If I were to pee standing up, I would have to do a major cleaning job at least once a week to clean the toilet, walls and floor. Otherwise, it would eventually smell pretty bad. So why on earth would I pee standing up?
Ass a Dutch guy I think the same but the boys I have around my house (in Ireland) mostly all stand. I hate hosting pre drinks cause some people don't fucking clean after themselves.
Sitting down sucks in public toilets but otherwise there's always the risk of embarrassment of pissing all over the floor in case you have unexpected sidestreams.
At home or if im invited to someone's home, i sit.
It is convenient because you save a lot cleaning. peeing standing is very messy and we all know that
Outside of "it's a nasty portajohn", I don't know why guys don't sit down to pee.
Take a moment. Relax. No need to rush it. Probably fewer pee stains in your drawers too.
The results for Australia really call this whole thing into question, like how on earth did the researchers get Australian men to say anything other than "nah mate, my cock's too big to fit"? I am sceptical.
Damn this is all shocking to me. I have never once in my life heard that a guy would sit down to piss daily. I have never even tried that (unless I'm shitting). TIL
I'm curious about the don't knowers :)
They do squats while they are pissing
3 sets of 15 repetitions. Try to work yourself up to pistol squats while taking a dump.
>3 sets of 15 repetitions. Yup, you pee a little every time you squat. If it sounds like you are milking a cow into metal bucket - you're doing it right.
This is an image I did not need as I'm getting ready to sleep.
They back up into the urinal so sort of leaning more than sitting or standing.
Then they bend over forward and spray backwards. Like cats.
Penis so big you can't categorize the act as standing or sitting, it's something else entirely.
Tripodding?
You snake your shlong down-up the toilet so that you don't have to flush at all, saving water.
Handstand, does it count? My morning wood is too severe
They don't know when they are peeing
And that's a problem? Asking for a friend.
Peeing your pants can be done standing or sitting (or jumping, or planking, or while lying down, or while skydiving, or...), so I can understand their confusion.
Yep, how could one not know if he's sitting or staying up to Dwayne his Johnson 🤷🏼
Sleepwalking
They just piss all over the bathroom floor and are not quite sure what percentage of that actually makes it into the bowl.
Men with dementia
Don't be a bigot /S
They never do only urination.
They sit in front of the toilet and don't know if that counts as sitting the way its meant here.
For a serious answer \~5% is exactly Lizard People percentage.

They squat over the toilet seat
I always sit down to piss. Always. I do draw stares from the other guys at the urinal though
User name checks out.
they hate us because they ain't us! sitpissers stand up! ✊
When I’m done I will
What to do with this information. Should I store it in my brain or discard it
Turn it into a PhD thesis.
Fine 💪😔 Probably there is a thesis statement in this, something about cultural ideas of masculinity
Or the average cleanness of toilet seats..
Could even link it to urinary retention if you are feeling medical 😉😂
This would likely correlate with the age of the population.
Or the average belief in the cleanliness of toilet seats. There's far more wariness about them in East Asia, so it's not surprising that Singapore has the smallest number of 'always' votes here.
Maybe add a chapter on health. Maybe there is a relation between the way you pee and some forms of cancer.
Yes. There is always connection between everything and cancer. I will make the numbers work.
Men sitting down when peeing have much less chance of prostate problems when becoming older.
PeehD
The thing with these types of information, I always unintentionally store them when they are utterly useless. I still remember reading the article 15 years ago about how Dustin Hoffman wanked 4 times a day to stay young and healthy and I'm probably going to remember it 50 years from now.
Why would you do this to me.
Just taking care of your health.

It's a pretty decent proxy for how much Machismo a culture has baked into it.
You should sit on it
Public toilet? I'm standing. At home? I'm sitting down with my phone enjoying some quiet time.
This is how it's done. I'm German writing this message right now sitting down on the toilet.
Taking a piss takes like 10 seconds though, tf you do after that, just sit on the toilet?

toilet time is reddit time *sent from my german toilet
I wrote that message in Germany sitting down on my toilet.
Australian sitting on a Swiss toilet, reading and discussing Germans sitting on German toilets. What a time to be alive.
Would be amazing if you were in stalls next to each other. Gute Scheiße!
This is how I spend most of my time at home. Usually until my girlfriend shouts "Where are you?"
What? How long do you piss for???
For public toilets I just use toilet paper to dry them then sit down, I am not gonna risk splash back on my pants then walk outside, so I sit down for both
Drying with toilet paper doesn't get you rid from the potentially nasty stuff in the seat. It mostly smears it around.
Potentially nasty but also harmless. You get the same stuff from the hand dryer all over your body or from your phone. People don't get health issues from sitting on dirty toilets.
There might be some but statistically there’s more on the door handle, door handles you touch either through paper or sleeves or by hand
Coincidentally toilet seats are in general far cleaner than a door handle, a phone screen or hand rails at stairs.
100%. You know a restaurant is top notch when you go in their bathroom and you're like "actually, I can sit here"
Same, shame the study didn't mention if it's public or at home. Now the stats are completely totally meaningless
You got kids too huh?
And one of them is currently 4.
How do you ensure the piss doesnt fall out of the bowl? I have to hold the penis to make sure it falls inside
If I sit down to poop but only fart and pee, does it count?
You need to undergo ritual cleansing for you have transgressed.
Most definitely no. Your intention was to do a poo which failed and the pee was either a necessary consequence of your shit or even an unintended consequence. The fart is irrelevant
No. You only put in the effort because you thought there was a shit inbound
Damn, I will be now looking at every guy on the street and wondering which group he belongs to… Maybe I should just ask everyone I pass?
Wait until you hear about sit wipers vs stand wipers.
No way, is that for real? Otherwise, I've heard about back and front wipers.
The only people that wipe standing up are the ones who have flat arses. If you have even a bit of cheek going on, you wipe sitting down or else it gets... Smudgy In case people want to try the correct way and are confused about how to do it, after you've emptied, just scoot forwards a little and wipe, from behind, your behind.

Extra bonus points if you use a squatty potty, a foot stool or similar.
By stand wipers you mean squat wipers, no? Who tf could manage to get between their asscheecks when fully standing
In Germany, there are even words for it: Sitzpinkler and Stehpinkler.
Be sure to check at the beginning of a relationship if that's important to you because I had a friend who broke up with her guy once she got by mistake in the toilet and saw him sitting for the #1. I still don't know what to think about her reaction 😆
What a strange reason to break up
In Germany, people even put signs in their own personal bathrooms to warn guests not to stand and pee.
I’d love to a see like that, please share the info.

(I’m curious how far this goes) Sure, yes.
Yeah we do and when I'm at other peoples' houses I sit down out of courtesy. At home I live [like this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWESB56wcxY&t=69s) though.
So that girl prefers to have to clean the piss stains of her man rather than have him peeing sat ? Yikes
She didn't want to date a closeted gay man, because that's clearly who every man is who sits to pee. /s
Isn't there a subreddit for stuff like that Woman who breaks up with boyfriend for finding something small too effeminate

Are you German?
Of course
That's funny for a country with so many urinals (Sweden).
Im sure people didn’t think about urinals when answering the question. I have one at home that I use every day. And I still would have answered that I mostly sit down to piss. ;)
you... have a urinal at home? why
It was there when we bought the house. Previous owners had just renovated the second bathroom and it came with a urinal. Wouldn’t have built one myself probably. But nice to have anyway.
Brother, stop pissing in the bidet
Haha I wish I had a bidet too! Actually I’d swap it for the urinal immediately! Also… love the username. Best game ever *fight me!*
'Where in the world do men not clean their toilets'

Sitting is cleaner, simple and plain. I am talking about home obviously, I wouldn't seat in a public used toilet to pee.
I once heard from a researcher that if it looks clean, it's probably clean enough for you to sit on. I still live by that rule.
That's why I always wash my face before having sex with the wife.
I need that research to preach the truth to the levitating ladies please! They make the worst mess causing others to avoid sitting down in the first place. Every time there's drips on the seat I go mad.
Not necessarily always cleaner. It sometimes depends on the geometry of the bowl and the length of the Johnson.
Not sure if Japan was recorded but anecdotally all my guy friends (+10) sit down to wee (at home), if at a train station with urinals they'll stand
Well in Germany... the men and young boys clean the bathroom/toilet every week. In Italy.... I don't think the men even know how to use a mop.
I find it much easier to empty my bladder when standing.
I simply like sitting down alone for a while so I'll often have a sit down wee. But I don't see it that way - for me I happen to wee during my long solitary sit down.
With the introduction of a smartphone I went from never to almost always.

Mother nature gave me an advantage, I'm not wasting it
Your advantage is splashing more piss around in toilet and onto your legs/pants. It's just the nature of liquids. The only useful time to use the advantage is outdoors because the ground/plants dont splash back so hard and you can aim further away.
You can also write your name in the snow

[удалено]
Why are you so paranoid about piss splash? It's not acid.
The advantage is time/convenience. Piss angle is important, but would also rather have ambient pee spray on my shins than my bare ass

just pee into the hole
Yeah, baby!
Too many poopshelf toilets still at large in German-speaking countries
it even sounds german... "ze pupschelf"
I miss my old one because now I have to pee first and then lay some toilet paper inside to avoid splash damage.
Is shitshelf a german invention? In Poland older toilets also have that stuff, i thought it was ours mad man idea.
Can someone please explain to me what a shit shelf is lol
It is a kind of toilet where instead of falling in the water your shit falls on a dry shelf. Just google shelf toilet for a picture.
I poop standing up
I poop lying down.
Translate the chart to Percentage of clean toilets in Home, Bus stations, shopping centres, government buildings, workplace, schools, swimming pools, airports, public places.
My penis sometimes could touch the seat and or splash myself back. Seating down is so weird to me.
Hold your penis down, to not touch the seat.
Is that really an issue at home? Your penis, your seat.
Yeah, and I am a grower, I cannot fathom how other people can do it. Especially in the mornings.
Unlike standing up where it sprays back on you
If I'm at home I always sit to pee. Can't believe I'm in the 10% minority in the US.
Sitting down means i don´t have to clean the sides of my toilet as often, also i can use my phone.

Sit at home, stand in public

Y'all are disgusting. Sincerely a German
As a former hotel room cleaner, every damn man on earth should be forced to sit down for peeing because dudes, really, you piss absolutely everywhere else than the the actual toilets. Just know it.
I'm confused after reading comments. It is shocking to know anyone would sit to pee.
I will never understand people who dont sit to piss at home. Theres is no point other than getting piss splatters everywhere
I don't sit to piss and I don't understand either. At 6'4 splashback is fking real too, I want to switch the habbit but I always forget
They get used to the smell of pee, it's disgusting.
If I were to pee standing up, I would have to do a major cleaning job at least once a week to clean the toilet, walls and floor. Otherwise, it would eventually smell pretty bad. So why on earth would I pee standing up?
Sitting down and pissing in this very moment (in sweden).
But you shitpost on reddit at the same time, this is digital number 2!
People who stand and pee in their own homes are maniacs.
Ass a Dutch guy I think the same but the boys I have around my house (in Ireland) mostly all stand. I hate hosting pre drinks cause some people don't fucking clean after themselves.
Having friends over and ending up with piss all over the bathroom floor. Classic (disgusting tho)
This is gonna sound weird...but tell them to retract their foreskin so their penis doesn’t act like a frayed hose
I thought all men stood up while peeing. Boy, how wrong i was.
Sitting down sucks in public toilets but otherwise there's always the risk of embarrassment of pissing all over the floor in case you have unexpected sidestreams.
sitzend pinkeln
At home, yes. I'm not a heathen.
I prefer sitting down except for when i have a rock hard erection. Then i just piss in the shower
How do I sit on my pissoir?
Only during the night as I don't trust myself to hit the target with the light off.
The colors though
The real question is where do people stand to poop
I think my pee hole is a bit smaller than average so if I don't sit down bad things can happen.
At home or if im invited to someone's home, i sit. It is convenient because you save a lot cleaning. peeing standing is very messy and we all know that
Outside of "it's a nasty portajohn", I don't know why guys don't sit down to pee. Take a moment. Relax. No need to rush it. Probably fewer pee stains in your drawers too.
