Left Party members of a Swedish county council said they want to encourage men using the council's toilets to sit during urination.
The Left Party in Sormland said it wants the Sormland County Council to pass a motion requiring toilets reserved for stand-up urination to be labeled, Swedish news agency TT reported Monday.
The party said sit-down urination is more hygienic and reduces the risk of bathroom users having to negotiate their way around puddles en route to the toilet.
The supporters of the motion said sitting during urination also has medical benefits, including reducing the risk of prostate problems and leading to a healthier and longer sex life.
Viggo Hansen, a substitute member of the council and author of the motion, said he wants it to eventually lead to sitting-only bathrooms.

Sorry won’t work. I poured all my viagra down the toilet and now I can’t get the seat down. :-)
How is it more hygienic to dip your dangle in the water . . . ?

The older version didn't even have partitions: a ledge to stand on, a wall to piss against and a floor drain. You can still find them in older more rural train stations. Not pretty, but highly efficient.

LOL LOL my, my.
I assume they have not changed dippers for boys have they?
Hey friends they want to do it, we as man now have a right to go to woman bathroom and amuse ourselves sitting on a toilet and listen to opera or some cool techno dance song LOL
This is just stupid.
Merci
The first ten years of my adult life I was single and quickly learned that a bathroom is much easier to clean and smells better if you sit rather than stand.
Are they also going to order women not to hover?
Stand up Chuck. OOPS.
I am pretty certain that Barack Hussein Soetoro Kardashian Obama already sits down to urinate.
How does one say “Go piss up a flagpole” in Swedish?
LOL
I remember the latrines at the Indy 500 in the 60s they used a barn-sized rain gutter sealed to the concrete block wall, and a downspout to the septic.
No, it's Saaaaaaaarrrc.
Any idiot can pee sitting down. A real man can poo standing up.
The studies I’ve seen says roughly 50% of men and 35% of women don’t wash their hands, even after taking a dump.
Remember that the next time you reach for a coffee stirrer.
If I tried to sit down when taking a leak, I’d likely fall off the porch backwards............ ;-)
Hmm.. you mean, they now check if people are sitting or standing?
Strange goings on.
Sit if you want, just don’t tell others what they have to do.
