If you happen to find yourself standing in line behind one of these Left Party jackals at the grocery store, just whip it out and pee on his leg. Or if he’s sitting in front of you at the theater, pee on the top of his head. It’s the only proper way to protest. And it’s the sort of thing the Left Party themselves would do. So we can suppose they would approve.

No, seriously, if enough people did this all the time to them, they’d shut up about it and move onto their next silly idea (For which LibWhacker would be happy to devise a remedial response. Call me.)

The Left Party also cites medical research

I don't buy into any research anymore. It simply has become politically motivated to promote causes.

Don’t know if the article mentions this, but if you live in an apartment complex in Sweden you cannot flush the toilet after 10 p.m.

Seriously. NOISE regulation.

What to do when a$$holes pee all over the seat?


The a hole is probably a liberal, but at any rate the best thing to do would be to clean it up before you sit down.

haha real men don’t pee indoors

My husband just whizzes off the front porch in daylight but at night he uses the bathroom. Of course we are in the country with no neighbors. If I get up in the middle of the night I make sure to watch where I step until I'm awake enough the next morning to clean up after him. You would think that a target as big as a toilet would not be so hard to hit.

“Truth is always stranger than fiction”

In the late 1970’s the American Spectator published “Number One is all right, but you shouldn’t stand for it”. Pushed by NOW and Gloria Steinem as a new federal law, the measure was introduced in Congress by Edward Kennedy & George McGovern while sitting down.

Some things you just can’t make up. Or maybe they can, now.

Not in this lifetime. I urinate standing up and defecate sitting down. I don't give a damn what the Swedes do. The last time they mattered was during the Viking invasions. How the mighty have fallen!

So, do you empty your bladder first then sit down to defecate at those times when you have to do both at the same time?

"in the woods"

Sure. Remember cavemen had all those toilets in the caves and nearby woods, so sitting down to do their business was an easy matter. (smirk) I think the bit about sitting down being more hygienic is a bit of nonsense invented for the occasion. Fem-nazis just want to do this as a way of fighting the patriarchy. Their next objective is to make men wear weights when performing athletic events so women won't feel bad about having lesser results.

So how are these geniuses going to enforce this? Surveillance cameras?

This is all a bunch of brainless hogwash. It's all about control, conformity, and forcing everyone into the same mold--standard Leftist objectives. That's all.

And an excellent example of how Leftists preach one thing but intend, practice, and produce the opposite. In this case they think they are liberal, but they are closed-minded; they think they love "diversity" but they demand conformity. They think they are free thinking, but they demand the opposite of freedom. They claim to promote hygeine, but their results will produce the opposite.

I apologize in advance for the graphic nature of the following, but as a physician I feel it necessary to spell out the facts that refute the ridiculous allegations of these Swedish nutcases.

Sitting down to urinate is neither more hygienic nor more healthy for men than standing.

Toilet seats expose the buttocks, the backs of the thighs, and the genitals, especially male genitals, to contamination by fecal/enteric microorganisms, including salmonella, shigella, amoebiasis, hepatitis A virus, and many others, by contaminants on the seat and in the toilet water and by splashing of contaminated water as urine (or fecal material) falls into the water.

When a man sits on a toilet, his genitals hang into the toilet bowl. Sometimes they actually dangle into the water. When feces or urine fall into the water, the water splashes on his hanging genitals. When the toilet is flushed the water splashes on his genitals and the surrounding skin, including the backs of his thighs and his buttocks.

The same thing happens to women, though to the genitals to a less extent since they do not actually dangle into the toilet bowl.

When the person pulls up clothes over the buttocks, genitals, et al., the insides of the clothes become contaminated.

There is no alternative to this procedure where women are concerned; however for men standing for urination is FAR MORE HEIGENIC.

When standing to urinate, a man can completely avoid such contamination inasmuch as only his penis is exposed, and it is held high above the water of the toilet or urinal so that splashing on it is minimal to nonexistent. It is possible that splashing can contaminate the fronts of his trousers unless he is quite careful.

The chances of contamination of men by enteric pathogens is FAR LESS LIKELY WHEN THEY STAND TO URINATE.

When a man or woman sits to defecate, which is unavoidable, contamination is unavoidable.

For these OBVIOUS AND VERY GOOD REASONS, FOR A MAN, STANDING TO URINATE IS FAR MORE HYGENIC AND SAFE THAN SITTING!

I ALWAYS shower after defecation when it is all all possible. Everyone should.

And I NEVER make love to my wife unless I have showered since the last defecation and am squeeky clean, hygenic, and read for love!

I’d bet my last dollar that you are a fan of Robert Heinlein.
You'd win! :-)

I don't care whether men sit or stand while they "do their business" but all too many of them don't care if they leave a mess behind.

Urinals are a wonderful invention, but too many men won't use them. And, unfortunately for women, there isn't (AFAIK) a female equivalent.

Unfortunately, the situation is bad enough that I won't even consider using a public toilet (and this often includes toilets shared only among coworkers at a job) unless it is a dire emergency. Too many men are pigs.

Perhaps not, but it is certainly less hygienic to sit on a toilet after the previous user pissed all over it.

The real problem here is that too many people are no longer civilized enough to clean up after themselves when using public facilities. There used to be a social convention to "leave a bathroom cleaner than you found it", but that has disappeared, along with almost every other public courtesy from years past.

As usual, they are trying to pass a law to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause. The law is worthless, but the underlying problem is real. And I don't know how to fix the real problem of encroaching barbarism.
