The toilet seat debate

I'm the only male in the house so I'm pretty used to lefting it. Also if it really is an issue then people should look before sitting, it's not like it'll kill them.
Now peeing outside it's another thing, in case some of it sprinkles out then I clean it myself

Seat down, cover down before you flush the toilet. Not because I'll fall in; really, it takes like a second to check, and if I ever fall in, I shall go off myself because that'd be the day I turned into a fucking idiot. The reason I enforce the EVERYTHING BACK THE FUCK DOWN BEFORE YOU FLUSH is that my toilet has a rather strong flush, so if the cover is left up, poo and pee water get everywhere.

I will make a big deal out of it because dude, our bathroom is tiny and the toothbrushes are on the sink RIGHT NEXT TO THE TOILET. I don't want the chance of pee/poo water splashes on something I put in my mouth, no matter how minuscule.

I honestly don't care if it's up or not but I always leave it down for other people because most people find putting the seat down after you're done as courteous.

I just know that's how I look at it. Just something you do to seem nice but at the same time you shouldn't feel obligated to.

I am also deeply disturbed by the number of males who admit to sitting down.

I usually try to remember to put the seat down as a courtesy thing. Though I think people make a bigger deal of it then what it really is.

Same here... It makes me worry

wait what!?
I guess according to you people who spend money on alcoholic beverages are wasting there money and should just carry a gallon of water from the nearest dollar store to get a girl drunk

I'm just kinda curious how the fuck is it that for some reason women are so highly inconvenienced by things that are so small or insignificant that it becomes some world ending life or death crisis when most others would normally just deal with the problem solve it then move on with there lives

that would be like me stubbing my toe on a lightpole then going to a city designer/construction worker then lighting him on fire because I wasn't paying attention properly to what was around me
why is it that people just have to stop everything their doing to jump and protect the fragile and apparently stupid borderline mentally retarded princess-like creature called the human female from such incredible and horrid dangers such as.... O.o *gasp* OH NO!!! pissy toilet!

now I'm sorry if I'm coming off as a bit of a dick but I'm just saying women are not that stupid and its ridiculous that people like are trying to make up excuses to validate a purely selfish, self-centered and lazy behaviors
and btw I know a lot of women that are on both sides of this and other types of arguments and I can tell you this the women who validate this behavior are very lazy.
(don't try to argue with me on this clearly when you hear one women call another women a "lazy bitch" something I've heard very often in arguments between some of my female friends and I'm pretty sure there are some hardcore reasons for such a statement)

now I can understand the common courtesy bit and know that all women lazy or not appreciate the gesture but the fact that several of the lazy types are trying to force this as mandatory is just idiotic and to try and validate it even more ridiculous if your lazy just say your fkin lazy don't try to say "this is what is wrong with my brain and why you should do everything for me"
just say your lazy cause I will call your bullshit and laziness out on you.

it dosent matter for me if its down or not.

Not putting the seat up, versus not putting the seat down are exactly as lazy and inconsiderate as each other.

point taken and im not validating the mans argument of "manliness" or whatnot and I'm not saying that I wouldn't put it down for such a pathetic reason either I'm just pointing out that
1. if lifting/lowering the seat regardless of man or women for some reason of inconvenience I'm just gonna call you out on being a lazy shit because as a man who's lifted over 200 pounds I don't think its that hard to flip/close a less then halfpound toilet seat as for grossness I've been covered in dirt sweat blood and god knows what else frankly I'm not gonna be set off by something as small as a alittle piss wipe the seat use some bleach or rubbing alcohol

@.its a courtesy not a requirement the gesture is nice however it is not mandatory by any means it is not and never will be supported by any government law state law or even any community base guidelines you may set your own house rules however these will never be recognized by law in any legal or official setting when I do close the toilet it is simply as a gesture of kindness and consideration but in the cases where I do not or simply forget to, I will not stand for this to be used as some sort of argument against me
now if someone was purposely leaving the seat up for "manliness" all the time then I'd understand bringing this issue to their attention to try and teach them to be more considerate however if a guy usually puts the seat down and just one day forgets back off and just think about the fact he may have forgotten and be grateful that he at least trys to be considerate about it

basically saying from either side this whole argument is pointless and stupid men who say the excuse of manliness are immature shits that need to grow the fuck up and women who say the excuse that its inconvenient for them need to stop being spoiled little princesses and learn to be independent and anyone that says the its too gross excuse needs to be forced to research some of the grosser things in life till they understand that alittle piss is not that bad
in fact pee is considered the cleanest thing to come out of the human body considering its 95% sterile
its even considered drinkable and several survivalist books and guides recommend "recycling" water to stay alive longer in low mostiure/low water life or death situations.
don't believe me? google it you'll figure it out.
starting to get the picture here? I'm not arguing about who's right who's wrong I'm calling bullshit on pathetic excuses and blatant ignorance or overly-spoiled attitudes.
I reread my previous post and I would like to apologize for not making my intents clear while I was pretty much attacking the female argument I forgot to mention my disagreement with the male argument as well

Dude, that's just way too much of an opinion for something very small, that happens in a split second.

Cleaning urine off of the toilet seat to women is in the same category as doing the laundry, and you have skidmarks in your underwear. It's like cleaning cheeto crumbs off your desk. It's not going to make our heads explode if it happens once in a while, but it's still something that screams 'I'M A BACHELOR!'

I mean, if women peed standing up, and you saw menstrual blood on the toilet seat [and don't worry, it's actually like .00004% blood, the rest is coagulated uterine lining.], would you think to yourself 'shit, could she have at least put the seat down?!'

Just sayin'.

It can be down as long as there's no type of "gifts" left to receive because people put the seat down without flushing & forget to flush, that's not only disgusting but something that NO ONE should have to go through.

wouldn't care just wipe and flush problem solved if it happened multiple times several days in a row (almost impossible considering women only have it once a month) I may mention it with the person privately however once or twice would hardly effect my day at all and overall the blood does not bother me I have been in situations where handling blood is unavoidable and blood from the vaginal area eh I don't really consider that real blood to be honest just cus there's too much other stuff mixed in I mean theres blood in there but that's not all that's in there basically to give you a clear view of how little I give a fk about any so called grossness of that
I would still fuck a girl even while shes on her period well if shes into it(which according to what my female friends have said is highly possible because they claim to feel "more horny" at those times) and even more so id still go down on a girl aint the first time I tasted blood
(to clarify that last bit in the code I was raised into its a sort of honoring ceremony and used as a bloodline passing rite for those who die without having a child to continue there bloodline 5 most trusted associates are asked to drink the blood of the dying person to continue the dying allies bloodline)

in my honest opinion this whole debate is some foolish waste of time started by spoiled people or immature shits that are completely ungrateful of what they have and spend waaaaay too much time focusing on little insignificant inconveniences like this
simple fact is if your a girl going to the bathroom you go and the seats up just put down the seat if your a guy and you need to use the bathroom and the seats down lift the seat up everyone has to do it so it shouldn't be a problem but the simple fact that this "problem" existed in the first place not just fakku but in general is a huge show of evidence that there are people who are spoiled or lazy, often times both

Not putting the seat down isn't inconsiderate. The only excuse I've heard thus far is just 'Then I have to touch it before I pee, which means I have to wash my hands before I pee' which if we have to pull it up before we take a piss, means we have to touch it twice, if we pull it down after we're finished. That, my friend is inconsiderate.

I'm all for equality :D
One touch of the toilet seat per gender

If you're living with a female, then lift the seat when you piss and put it back down when you're done. It's such a mundane task that it's baffling to me why people don't do it when asked.

I used to have a roommate that pissed with the seat down and he never cleaned the bathroom. Humans need etiquette for long term interaction, don't be sparse with it.

I always leave it up. I came home drunk once and pissed in the dark, woke up the next day and piss was spattered everywhere because the damn lid was down, everything was soaked.

Yes, I would appreciate if you could put the seat down.
I'll do it if I have to, but you know, it would be nice if it could be put down.
As a girl, it really bugs me, but I wont go full on butt hurt about it.

I live with 3 girls and they have never complained about whether the seat is down or not. Maybe they just don't putting the seat down, sometimes I forget to put the seat back down. When I have to take a dump the seat is probably up and it only takes about a 2 seconds to look and put the seat back down. Not much of a big deal for guys I guess.

I dont stand to pee in my own house since i dont care to have pee shrapnel all over me or my floor. I was told to always sit when I pee by my parents, so i guess it just stuck. The exception is public restrooms.
