Dudes, when you're at home, do you pee standing up or sitting down?

    I'm under doctors orders not to lift anything heavy.

    OK, so luckily you're still able to be a man and pee standing up then.

    Here's the context: our son is 15 months old, so he'll start potty-training soon. Mrs. FFT was talking to some friends about this. My understanding is that boys are generally taught to pee sitting down (for aiming purposes). I'm okay with teaching that way.

    But then Mrs. FFT mentioned that I peed standing up, and the C-monster would eventually do this, too (this sounds odd divorced from context, but whatever). The friend was aghast--her husband pees sitting down, and she was convinced that virtually all men did, too, for cleanliness reasons. Mrs. FFT relayed this to me, and my initial reaction was the opposite--while there are situations where some dudes pee sitting down, that would strike me as not the norm by a longshot. The friend's argument was basically that any guy who peed standing up was a neanderthal. Now, it's not like I follow friends around to see how they pee, so I couldnt say for certain that I was right, but I assumed it wasn't symptomatic of being a mouth-breather.

    Long story short, this issue has come up several times since then. Mrs. FFT's friend insists that I'm the outlier, while her husband is the norm. I disagree, but wanted a sanity check to make sure I wasn't crazy. You guys have confirmed that I'm not way out in left field here, and it's her husband who is the weird one.

    So thanks again, OC.

    That dude is a vagina, and most likely has one.

    That's more or less what I told Mrs. FFT. We're pretty close friends with these people, though, so it'd be awkward to call him out throguh Mrs. FFT through his wife. I just needed a sanity check on this one.

    I'm not saying I've never peed sitting down, but to be an exclusive sitter like that guy would be quite feminine.

    What does this dude do at a bar or a restaurant?
  • ernest_t_bass
    Why is everyone picking on the guy in the story, when we have some of our very own members admit to peeing sitting down.

    Do you sit for #1 at a bar or restaurant? You probably sit due to your heart issues...

    I guess I always just assumed men in general went standing up, and because of that, I potty trained 3 boys that way... Cheerios solved the aiming issue. The sitting thing seems weird to me.
  • BigYtownRed
    Sitting @ home, aiming has nothing to do with it, it is a cleanliness thing. If you have ever peed while wearing shorts it still splashes all over the place. Carpet on the floor in our bath.

    Everyplace else I stand, yes in your house I let it splash everywhere. :)

    Since guys have brought up the #1 #2 combo. Can you do #2 & not do #1 at the same time? I always do both have never done just #2.
