Socialists and feminists in Europe want to force equality by outlawing men from urinating while standing up. The Leftists suggest that forcing uniformity also has medical benefits with cleaner floors without puddles of urine. On the other hand, dirty toilet seats, increase of water usage for flushing and other factors may make "sitting only bathrooms" less healthy for humans and the environment.

What do you think? Should laws make it compulsory for men to sit on toilets when they urinate? The Inquisitr reports from Europe:Standing up while urinating may soon be illegal for men in Europe. Male representatives on the Sormland County Council and the Left Party are pushing

    It's Sweden, not Europe...and this is almost as crazy as gathering a panel of men to decide what's best for women's health.

    And the right wing blog-o-sphere is who added the feminists to the mix. This was introduced by a MAN who notes that besides being a more efficient way to evacuate the bladder, there are health benefits associated with sitting-while-peeing. The act reduces risk for prostate problems and also helps men achieve a longer, healthier sex life.

    I think that this is a bit silly--but can't you at least report the truth? ONE MAN--in a Left Party COUNTY level, not national, proposed this.


    This is (unsurprisingly) shoddy reporting, at best. But kudos to your Fox "News" hyperbole and out-right lies!

    No I don't approve sitting down to pee.

    As a man, I proudly pee while standing up.

    However, I'm guessing that the vast majority of American Conservative men probably wouldn't have a problem with such a decree.

    Most Conservative men already sit down when they pee.

    After all, they're conservative, and standing up while peeing is just too Liberal.

    This seems to have originated with the county council in the Swedish province of Sormland.

    'Viggo Hansen, a Left Party member and substitute member on council who's responsible for the proposal, is pushing the idea because he wants the office toilets to be genderless.

    Hansen insists the motion isn't a form of political meddling in people's urination preferences.

    "That's not what we're doing. We want to give men the option of going into a clean toilet," he told Sveriges Television.'

    Urinals are fine but why is it when I go to do #2 the seat is sometimes covered in yellow stain? Again, men can be thoughtless and uncaring of others. This being said, women too are thoughtless as my wife has complained many times about filthy women's restrooms.

    Unfortunately, no. I read the Huff Po article about it:

    Swedish Left Party Chapter Wants To Make Urinating While Standing Illegal For Men
    Posted: 06/13/2012 2:13 pm

    Whether men take this sitting down remains to be seen.


    Take a stand -- and sit down for what you believe in.

    Male representatives on the Sormland County Council in Sweden should sit rather than stand while urinating in office restrooms, according to a motion advanced by the local Left Party.

    Known as a socialist and feminist organization, the party claims that seated urination is more hygienic for men -- the practice decreases the likelihood of puddles and other unwanted residue forming in the stall -- in addition to being better for a man's health by more effectively emptying one's bladder, The Local reported.

    But not everyone agrees.

    "Men scatter urine not so much during the actual urination as during the 'shaking off' that follows," John Gamel, a professor at the University of Louisville, wrote while addressing the issue in 2009. "As a result, forcing men to sit while emptying their bladders will serve little purpose, since no man wants to shake himself off while remaining seated on the toilet."

    A representative from the party said he hopes to move toward sitting only bathrooms.

    POLL: Does this argument hold water?

    I've heard some unbelievably stupid things in my life. this is probably the stupidest of them all.

    If someone seriously supports passing this law, they no longer have a right to an opinion on anything, ever.

    Hold on. I clean bathrooms as part of a second job. Women make a worse mess in the stalls than men. They sometimes straddle the bowl and let loose and they sometimes stand in front of the bowl, like men, and believe me, women have no sense of direction. Women never sit on the seats in public toilets because the seats are a mess worst than a pig sty.

    Excuse me, but I read the post and it was concerned with "cleaner floors without puddles of urine." And also the "medical benefits" that would presumably result from requiring men to sit while peeing. I can attest to the fact that women who use public toilets do not sit while peeing. Or even while pooping due to the puddles of urine on the toilet seat and on the toilet itself. The post is a fairy tale about how clean the women leave the public toilets.

    As long as men have urinals to stand at, it shouldn't be a problem.

    I remember traveling in Europe and having a group pee in Italy...where there was a rather large whole in the floor which the men stood around and whizzed away...a little smelly, but you had to stand to use it.

    The only advantage to having men sit down is for women...since most men don't put the toilet seat down after they're done, women have to do it for them. If men have to sit, the seat will never come up again.

    Lazy men...

    The only place women sit on a toilet is at their home. When they use public toilets they do not sit on the seat but they squat over the bowl and let fly. They leave a bigger mess on the floor and the toilet seat is such a mess other women are sure to follow the example.
