I wonder if signs like these are effective. Unless you are monitoring and handing out fines as guests leave, they are gonna just do whatever is their habit.
Hmm this "unisex" bathroom seems biased...

I listened to it, even though I found it funny.

But like, if men pee with the seat up, but both men and women poop with the seat down, then statistically the seat is already down more than half of the time. Now if we enforce a policy like this, that would mean more than half of the times someone walks in and needs the seat to be down is in luck, but the rest has to do double the “work”. And if someone goes in after someone who would have otherwise left the seat up, they too do double the work, so the seat changes position 4 times instead of once. I think it’s much more “just” to simply change the seat whenever you need it and sometimes you will even find it in the position you need it.

sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
Yeah it’s a silly sign and they should relax.

It comes with the risk of contamination or infection if you’re well endowed.
BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
I’m not well endowed, at best I’m average… at best. But while I don’t touch the water, I hit the front of the bowl. It’s disgusting to feel the cold porcelain.
juliebean@lemmy.zip 6 months ago
do such people also have to poop while standing?
interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml 6 months ago
My dignity refuses to piss sitting down !
IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 6 months ago
not with morning wood
trashgirlfriend@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Why do you have morning wood at work
Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 6 months ago
how the fuck do you piss with wood anyways? just wait 5 minutes
empireOfLove2@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 months ago
brother if you got wood how tf are you peeing sitting down. That shit pointing up
Senseless@feddit.org 6 months ago
Yes, even with morning wood. Just lean a bit forward. It’s not that hard.
sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
Why though.

- Cleaner for your penis: sitting down eliminates the last drops remaining that are common when standing up
- Cleaner for the bathroom: zero risk foreskin messing up your aim and having pee hit areas that don’t get washed by the flush
- Better urine elimination for men that have prostate issues or lower urinary tract symptoms. I don’t, but it’s a factor
- More chill to sit down and check your phone while in the bathroom

Because splashback.
wondrous_strange@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Just cause it’s easy doesn’t mean you should.
Also, it’s not easier than standing.
Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 6 months ago
do you like, have severe knee pain or something? that’s the only way i can see it being more difficult to sit down.
flyingSock@feddit.org 6 months ago
I find sitting easier than standing. It requires less attention (atleast if you have standards of the waste actually being in the pot).

Peak boomer humor. Congrats!

Leave the seat down so when you flush you won’t inhale your poop and pee.
Cmon it’s not hard.
AppleTea@lemmy.zip 6 months ago
I think just being an organism with an anus leads to higher levels of poop exposure than whatever minuscule amount of particulate matter that manages to aerosolize from an unlided flush

Yes, but I already have all the diseases that I have. I don’t need to add all the diseases everyone else has too, or vice versa.
trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world 6 months ago
You mean the lid infested of the seat?
Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Pooping is what unites us
lol_idk@piefed.social 6 months ago
Peeing while seated unites us
trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world 6 months ago
It seems like at least half of men can’t aim anyway, so it’s better to just sit down.
QuoVadisHomines@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
If you have to sit and you have to go immediately you appreciate those that were considerate enough to engage in this simple act of decency.
interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml 6 months ago
I’m the only one that uses my own toilet, this makes no difference when having to sit.
It would be super annoying to raise and lower the sit every single time that I piss…
QuoVadisHomines@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
if you are the only person that uses it then it is not unisex.
