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

I'm afraid I mis-stated what I meant to say.

I meant to say: Sitting down to urinate is LESS hygienic and LESS healthy for men than standing--and for those with whom men come into contact.

And what you have said is true.

Shot placement is the key. And of course, lead the ones that are moving by a mil-dot or two.
