And too deep.

“Urine is actually sterile,” says Benjamin Davies, an associate professor of urology at the University of Pittsburgh. “There is no bacteria in it. You can drink urine.” (Though he's not advocating that anyone does take a swig of urine.)

funniest post of the day !!

In his attempt to be the first non-Moslem to make the hajj, nineteenth century explorer, writer, sexual adventurist, Richard Burton came close to being executed by his Moslem traveling companions.

Despite being disguised as a Mohammedan and speaking Arabic well enough to pass as a native, the bold Briton nearly blew his cover when he went to answer the call of nature. Beyond the light of the campfire, Burton relieved himself in the manner any Western would without a second though--standing up.

This was seen by one of the Moslem men who alerted his friends to the possibility a kaffir was in their midst.

Somehow, Burton, speaking Arabic, bluffed his way out of it and continued the journey and succeeded at being the first non-Moslem to make hajj and live to tell the tale.

If I sit...I might get poison ivy.

Years ago I had a job at a paper warehouse. To get a bit more money for college I took on the job of cleaning up the office before regular work time. Included in the office cleanup were the bathrooms. It was a surprise of my young life the first time I went into the ladies room. There were piles of tissues with all kinds obnoxious stuff. Lucky for me my job ended when called for the draft.

I would guess that males have spent most of their millions of years of evolution by standing up when urinating. Most people recommending sitting down are either arch feminist wackos who want to put men in their place or mentally castrated, male sissies who are happy to be put in their place.

wow... what a bad mental picture!!

No # 84 , just before yours

[Signalman]

Don’t most liberal men in this country do this already?

[driftless2]

"public restrooms"

Good point. Who knows what diseases are lurking on that toilet seat. Standing up also prevents the monsters lurking under the bowl from reaching up and biting you in the a...

[driftless2]

"peeing in back yard"

Eliminates noxious weeds and violent ants as well. A twofer.

[9YearLurker]

Agreed. It’s never bad form to be considerate of those who clean—and share—your facilities.

[driftless2]

"my husband"

My wife and I are the reverse. She has to go immediately before we leave, and we must have prearranged pit stops on the way. She's constantly amazed at my bladder control...(an admittedly minor skill.) She'll be happy to hear there's a reverse situation involving couples.

"Oh for God’s sake! This is a stupid issue. "

If a Mom teaches a boy to sit to keep the bathroom clean, fine.

If an addle-brained lefty introduces legislation to remove urinals, and cites bogus reasons of health, it is not a stupid issue but another assault on manhood.

If a lesbian mother teachers her boy to sit in order to feminize him, I fear for that young man someday.

[SeminoleCounty]

Good points....this “peeing standing up” is just another way to de-nut males.

Actually standing up empties the bladder the best....especially if you have a belly....sitting would constrict things

It’s a rite of passage, having your ol’ man teach you how to write your name in the snow.

Script or print? (copied from some show on TV which I have long forgotten except for that line)
