There is an argument for standing to pee since it empties the urethra more completely compared to sitting to pee. This is mostly relevant for 40+ people since they are more likely to have any issues.
Simple trick to shit/sit and pee and still empty everything is to push on the area between dick and butthole.
I will go ahead and be the only person to honestly engage with the terms of your question.
There is a movement that started a long time ago and continues today to "domesticate" boys. Boys are invariably more disobedient in controlled classrooms and group activities and so they need to be "broken in" and taught how to conform to the requirements of modern life and education. Girls tend to fit into this structure more easily as can be attested by the higher educational outcomes among women in countries that allow them to achieve it.
With this in mind there is a lot of resentment against this "breaking in" process. This metastasizes when boys hear all about how "toxic" they are by virtue of how they were born, how much more trouble they are to deal with etc. The emotional response is to resist all attempts to demasculinize them, even in the case of something as inconsequential as bathroom etiquette.
This is an honest representation of the perspective in question. Don't get all passed off at me for being capable of presenting it.
Sitting to pee is normal, standing up is for public bathrooms and in nature.
I don't think people really care, lol. Unless they like to learn their friends peeing preferences, they probably have an ulterior motive if they are that interested.
If I have to poop as well as pee I sit. Who cares what some insecure dude thinks about that?
I very often sit down to pee, but not exclusively. Some times I feel like standing.
No follow-up questions, thanks.
I pee sitting down at home because I use a toilet SEAT. It is designed to be used sitting down. Put a urinal in your home if you're too insecure to pee sitting down.
my passion is jerking off constantly
I sit facing the toilet so that I don't have to turn around to push the flush handle.
And you can put your comic and chocolate milk on the little shelf in the back!
Do you make a beeping noise when you back out of the bathroom after?
I don't know who y'all hang out with, but my friends for decades have given each other shit for anything we can possibly think of. It's a form of male bonding.
You're not going to hear from men who actually do this because they don't have a good reason and aren't typically comfortable with the kind of introspection the question demands.
Some people are exclusionary pricks who look for excuses to judge others. They don't have or need a reason. It's bullying.
Because the answer is that a lot of men don't want to challenge their idea of masculinity. Women sit down to pee. If man sits to pee, it just challenges their whole idea of masculinity and it's easier to get other men to comform than he introspective
Be a rebel; stand to shit
Here is a fun fact: about half of people stand up to wipe their ass after taking a shit.
And there's that one guy who catches his shit every time.
Guys who do diss other guys for not peeing standing up have major self esteem issues or insecurities.
I'm a man and I pee sitting down because:
Real men sit to pee so they don't have to clean their own piss up later.
Whenever I talk about this, some asshat will come along and make a comment about sitting on a tree. No, dumbass, I don't sit to pee on a tree. Or a urinal. I sit to pee on my toilet at home so I can tell you what an idiot you are while I'm pissing just to prove how manly I am.
Real men pee however they want and make sure not to leave a mess for the next bathroom user. Standing or sitting has nothing to do with masculinity.
As a man WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU TELLING ME HOW YOU PEE!?! What god damn conversation is going on!?! How the hell did this come up? We don't normally talk about this!
My true passion in life is Aztec history.
We don’t normally talk about this!
We should though! We should just not be shit bags about it. Sharing & seeking info rather than having a weird chauvinistic view on how pee exits bodies.
There's nothing chauvinistic about it! I just don't want to know or care about what you do in the bathroom. We're not going to have a conversation about it. JUST WASH YOUR HANDS!
I wiped my ass with a wadded up ball of 25 toilet paper squares for years because no one wanted to tell me about more efficient and effective ways to do it. Bathroom knowledge is like your paycheck. They say you shouldn't talk about it with your peers, but it needs to be talked about.
These days I can clean my whole ass, even on the most explosive days, with less than 10 squares, and I'm saving so much money.
Like in France, ca va?
Tell me something cool about Aztec History, please!
Women would use a blue green herb called xiuhquilitl to give their hair a purple/indigo sheen.
I googled that
Did you mean: xiuhcoatl
Is this fire serpent/ weapon of the sun an Aztec dragon?
I mostly sit down when I pee because my cat likes to spend quality time when I'm on the toilet and he gets upset if into in the bathroom and don't sit down.
Remember manliness is not caring about how other people define manliness.
I don't shame people for it, but I worked at a place where the screw holding the seat broke and it took a week for a new one to get in to the local hardware shop, so any time someone went in for that week someone would say "better not sit to piss" rather than be helpful because we like to do a little trolling around here
One morning dude comes in clearly rushing cuz he's a little late, runs in, and my coworker says the line. Before he can finish it the guys already in the shitter with the door slammed we hear the zipper he's going so fast and furious, hear his ass hit the seat at speed, as well as him and the seat sliding from the missing bolt and falling into the corner of the room, taking the lid of the reservoir with him
The "GYADDAMIT" as everything in the other room crashed and banged will be with me til I die, it makes me chuckle every time I think of it
when you have to piss while shitting, do you stand up turn around and piss on your shit and then sit back down to finish shitting?
Clearing both lower ports from a sitting position isn't a problem. The problem is when one feels simultaneous urges to defecate and vomit. I'm fortunate enough for this to be a rare occurrence personally, but I do keep a mop bucket within reach of the toilet.
I got did this in an airbnb in Mexico once. They didn't charge extra to clean the wall.... Not sure why not
My sink is conveniently within reach. Can sit and shit and vomit.
Then if there's hugs splashes clean it all up with the bidet shower.
"What is that? An umbrella? Are you afraid of a little rain? Are you gay? What's the umbrella for, so you can stick it up your ass?"
I'm ripping off Bill Burr here. Macho men are drooling morons who die at age 54. Why ask them their opinion on anything?
I just do whatever I feel like doing at the time.
I've never heard someone's strong opinion about it. Do guys really diss guys for sitting down?
In German there's an insult: "Sitzpinkler". It means "someone who sits down when peeing". Never heard anyone use it seriously though.
I'm surprised to hear German has a word for this, considering that stats I've previously seen show Germany as having the highest proportion of male sitting pee-ers.
